Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in general, because there are many kinds of household electrical appliances mixed together in the family, the manufacturers or product numbers are not the same. Manage the function information of all model product numbers, but the function information of all model product numbers of each manufacturer may not be disclosed.
Moreover, since the function information of the latest model may not be registered on the server soon, therefore, in this case, there will be a problem that the function information cannot be obtained from the server, and the home appliance cannot be completely controlled.
In addition, there will also be a problem that it will take a lot of time and money to manage these functional information whether it is centralized management using one server or decentralized management using multiple servers
Moreover, it is also considered that a control device that stores functional information from the beginning needs to install a large-capacity memory in order to store the functional information of each manufacturer or all model product numbers; device, it cannot be controlled

Abstract

It is possible to automatically acquire function information on electric devices manufactured by different manufactures and having different model numbers. A technical standard information storage unit (21) stores technical standard information defining the function information containing at least a setting item for controlling a home electric appliance (1) together with an identifier. A setting check data creation unit (25) acquires the identifier of the home electric appliance (1) and creates setting check data for checking setting for each of the setting items of the home electric appliance (1) according to the technical standard information matched with the model information and version information contained in the identifier. A setting check unit (26) executes setting of the home electric appliance (1) by using the setting check data and updates the function information according to the setting result. A home electric appliance control unit (29) controls the home electric appliance (1) according to the function information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for creating setting confirmation data sent to electrical equipment when collecting functional information such as setting items and setting values ​​for controlling electrical equipment connected through a network, and using the setting confirmation data to collect electrical equipment. A control device for functional information, a facility control system, a facility control program, and a computer-readable recording medium on which the facility control program is recorded. Background technique [0002] Recently, as the communication infrastructure (communication infrastructure) in the home, in addition to the network that needs high-speed and large-capacity data transmission such as images, there are various white goods that can be used in the home (for example, air conditioners, refrigerators, microwave ovens, Washing machines, etc.) or a network of low-cost equipment systems with relatively slow speed and ...
