Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] (Findings etc. underlying the present disclosure) When the inventors arrived at the present disclosure, there was a technology in which a terminal device displayed the indoor temperature and humidity. However, in the conventional technology, since the indoor temperature and humidity were displayed as values, the inventors discovered the problem that it was impossible to intuitively grasp what state the interior was in as a human sense, and in order to solve that problem, they came to constitute the subject matter of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure provides a control system, a control method, and a program that can intuitively grasp what state the target space is in as a human sense.

[0011] Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, there may be cases where a more detailed description than necessary is omitted. For example, there may be cases where a detailed description of already well-known matters or a redundant description of substantially the same configuration is omitted. The attached drawings and the following description are provided for those skilled in the art to fully understand the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the subject matter described in the claims.

[0012] (Embodiment 1) [1-1. Configuration] [1-1-1. Configuration of the control system] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of a control system 1000. The control system 1000 is a system that controls the temperature and humidity of a target space SP. Further, the control system 1000 is a system in which the terminal device 1 displays information related to the temperature and humidity of the target space SP. The target space SP is a space where the sensor 2 detects temperature and humidity, and is inside the building H, that is, indoors. The sensor 2 is an example of a "detection unit".

[0013] In the present embodiment, a case where the building H has three target spaces SP, namely, a first target space SP1, a second target space SP2, and a third target space SP3, will be exemplified. FIG. 2 is a diagram schematically showing the inside of the building H as viewed from above.

[0014] As shown in FIG. 2, the building H of the present embodiment has three target spaces SP inside. A sensor 2 is installed in each of the first target space SP1 to the third target space SP3. Hereinafter, the sensor 2 installed in the first target space SP1 will be referred to as "first sensor 21" with the symbol "21". Further, hereinafter, the sensor 2 installed in the second target space SP2 will be referred to as "second sensor 22" with the symbol "22". Further, hereinafter, the sensor 2 installed in the third target space SP3 will be referred to as "third sensor 23" with the symbol "23".

[0015] In addition, an indoor unit 3 is installed in each of the first target space SP1 to the third target space SP3. The indoor unit 3 is an example of a "temperature control device".

[0016] In addition, a humidifier 4 is installed in the first target space SP1. The humidifier 4 is an example of a "humidity control device".

[0017] Returning to the description of FIG. 1, the control system 1000 includes a sensor 2. The control system 1000 of the present embodiment includes three sensors 2. When the sensor 2 detects the temperature and humidity of the target space SP at a predetermined cycle (for example, a 5-minute cycle), each time it detects, it transmits the detection data D1 to the server device 5. The detection data D1 records the detected value of the temperature of the target space SP and the detected value of the humidity of the target space SP. A sensor ID (Identification) that uniquely identifies the sensor 2 is added to the detection data D1. Note that the sensor 2 may communicate with the server device 5 via a local network constructed in the building H and connected to the network NW, or may communicate with the server device 5 without passing through the local network. The network NW includes the Internet, a telephone network, and other communication networks.

[0018] The control system 1000 includes an indoor unit 3. The control system 1000 of the present embodiment includes three indoor units 3. The indoor unit 3 constitutes an air conditioner together with an outdoor unit (not shown) and air-conditions the target space SP. The indoor unit 3 of the present embodiment exemplifies a ceiling cassette type indoor unit, but the type of the indoor unit 3 may be other types such as a wall-mounted type or a ceiling-suspended type. The indoor unit 3 communicates with the server device 5. Note that the indoor unit 3 is equipped with a temperature sensor that detects the temperature of the target space SP, and based on the detected value of the temperature sensor it is equipped with, it can control the temperature of the target space SP to be the temperature specified by the server device 5.

[0019] The indoor unit 3 transmits the first status data D2 to the server device 5 at a predetermined cycle. The first status data D2 is data indicating the state of the air conditioner, and whether the air conditioner is in operation is recorded. An indoor unit ID that uniquely identifies the indoor unit 3 is added to the first status data D2. Note that the indoor unit 3 may communicate with the server device 5 connected to the network NW via a local network constructed in the building H, or may communicate with the server device 5 without going through the local network.

[0020] The control system 1000 includes a humidifier 4. The humidifier 4 in the present embodiment exemplifies a stationary device, but the form of the humidifier 4 is not limited to a stationary type. The humidifier 4 may have a function of sterilizing and deodorizing the air in the target space SP. Note that the humidifier 4 includes a humidity sensor that detects the humidity of the target space SP, and based on the detection value of the included humidity sensor, the humidity of the target space SP can be controlled to be the humidity specified by the server device 5.

[0021] The humidifier 4 transmits the second status data D3 to the server device 5 at a predetermined cycle. The second status data D3 is data indicating the state of the humidifier 4, and whether it is in operation is recorded. A humidifier ID that uniquely identifies the humidifier 4 is added to the second status data D3. Note that the humidifier 4 may communicate with the server device 5 connected to the network NW via a local network constructed in the building H, or may communicate with the server device 5 without going through the local network.

[0022] The control system 1000 includes a terminal device 1. In the present embodiment, as the terminal device 1, a device including a touch panel 12 is exemplified. Note that examples of the terminal device 1 in the present embodiment include smartphones and tablet computers. Note that the terminal device 1 is not limited to a tablet PC (Personal Computer), and may be a laptop PC or a desktop PC. An application program for controlling the temperature and humidity of the target space SP is installed in the terminal device 1. In the following description, this application program is referred to as the "control app" and is given the reference numeral "111". The terminal device 1 communicates with the server device 5 by the function of the control app 111. The control app 111 is an example of a "program".

[0023] The control system 1000 includes a server device 5. The server device 5 is a device that performs information processing with the terminal device 1, the sensor 2, the indoor unit 3, and the humidifier 4 as clients. The server device 5 is connected to the network NW and communicates with these clients. In each figure, the server device 5 is represented by a single block, but this does not necessarily mean that the server device 5 is configured by a single device.

[0024] Next, the configurations of the terminal device 1 and the server device 5 will be described. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the configurations of the terminal device 1 and the server device 5.

[0025] [1-1-2. Configuration of Server Device] First, the configuration of the server device 5 will be described. The server device 5 includes a server control device 50 and a server communication unit 51.

[0026] The server communication unit 51 includes communication hardware such as a communication circuit, and communicates with the terminal device 1, the sensor 2, the indoor unit 3, and the humidifier 4 according to the control of the server control device 50. The communication standard of the server communication unit 51 may be a wireless communication standard or a wired communication standard.

[0027] The server control device 50 is a control device that controls each part of the server device 5. The server control device 50 includes a server processor 500 which is a processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or an MPU (Micro Processor Unit), a server memory 510, and an interface circuit for connecting to other devices and sensors, and controls each part of the server device 5.

[0028] The server memory 510 is a memory that stores programs and data. The server memory 510 stores a control program 511, a first management DB (data base) 512, a second management DB 513, and data to be processed by the server processor 500. The server memory 510 has a non-volatile storage area. Also, the server memory 510 has a volatile storage area and constitutes the work area of the server processor 500. The server memory 510 is composed of, for example, a ROM (Read Only Memory) and a RAM (Random Access Memory).

[0029] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the first management DB 512 and the second management DB 513. The first management DB 512 has a record R1 for each building H. The record R1 has a building ID that uniquely identifies the building H. The record R1 has a sub-record SR1 for each target space SP. The sub-record SR1 has a first field, a second field, a third field, and a fourth field.

[0030] In the first field of the sub-record SR1, a space ID that uniquely identifies the target space SP is recorded. In the second field of the sub-record SR1, a combination of a sensor ID and detection data D1 is recorded. In the third field of the sub-record SR1, a combination of an indoor unit ID and first status data D2 is recorded. In the fourth field of the sub-record SR1, when the humidifier 4 is present in the target space SP, a combination of the humidifier ID and the second status data D3 is recorded. When the humidifier 4 is not present in the target space SP, nothing is recorded, that is, it is left blank.

[0031] The second management DB513 has a record R2 for each building H. The record R2 has a building ID and aerial view image data. The aerial view image data is image data showing the aerial view image G1 (see Fig. 5). The aerial view image G1 is an image schematically showing the building H as seen from above. A specific example of the aerial view image G1 is shown in Fig. 5 and the like described later. The aerial view image G1 has a target space image G2 showing the target space SP for each target space SP of the building H. Note that a specific example of the target space image G2 is shown in Fig. 5 and the like described later. Note that a space ID is appropriately associated with each of the image data of the target space image G2.

[0032] The record R2 has a sub-record SR2 for each target space SP. The sub-record SR2 has a first field, a second field, and a third field.

[0033] The space ID is recorded in the first field of the sub-record SR2. The first communication information for communicating with the indoor unit 3 is recorded in the second field of the sub-record SR2. In the third field of the sub-record SR2, when the humidifier 4 is present in the target space SP, the second communication information for communicating with the humidifier 4 is recorded. When the humidifier 4 is not present in the target space SP, nothing is recorded, that is, it is left blank. Note that the first communication information and the second communication information are, for example, information indicating a predetermined address.

[0034] Returning to the description of Fig. 3, the server processor 500 functions as a server communication control unit 501, an update unit 502, and a device control unit 503 by reading and executing the control program 511 stored in the server memory 510. The device control unit 503 is an example of a "control unit".

[0035] The server communication control unit 501 communicates with the terminal device 1, the sensor 2, the indoor unit 3, and the humidifier 4 via the server communication unit 51.

[0036] The update unit 502 updates the content of the sub-record SR1. When the server communication control unit 501 receives the detection data D1, the update unit 502 updates the detection data D1 associated with the sensor ID added to the received detection data D1 to the received detection data D1. When the server communication control unit 501 receives the first status data D2, the update unit 502 updates the first status data D2 associated with the indoor unit ID added to the received first status data D2 to the received first status data D2. When the server communication control unit 501 receives the second status data D3, the update unit 502 updates the second status data D3 associated with the humidifier ID added to the received second status data D3 to the received second status data D3.

[0037] The device control unit 503 controls the indoor unit 3. The device control unit 503 generates first control instruction information and controls the indoor unit 3 by transmitting the first control instruction information generated via the server communication control unit 501 to the indoor unit 3. Although the details of the first control instruction information will be described later, the first control instruction information is information for instructing temperature control so that the temperature of the target space SP becomes the temperature set by the user P. Also, the device control unit 503 controls the humidifier 4. The device control unit 503 generates second control instruction information and controls the humidifier 4 by transmitting the second control instruction information generated via the server communication control unit 501 to the humidifier 4. Although the details of the second control instruction information will be described later, the second control instruction information is information for instructing humidity control so that the humidity of the target space SP becomes the humidity set by the user P.

[0038] [1-1-3. Configuration of the Terminal Device] Next, the configuration of the terminal device 1 will be described. The terminal device 1 includes a terminal control device 10, a terminal communication unit 11, and a touch panel 12.

[0039] The terminal communication unit 11 includes communication hardware such as a communication circuit, and communicates with the server device 5 connected to the network NW according to the control of the terminal control device 10. The communication standard of the terminal communication unit 11 may be a wireless communication standard or a wired communication standard.

[0040] The touch panel 12 includes a display panel and a touch sensor provided over or integrally with the display panel. The display panel displays various information under the control of the terminal control device 10. The touch sensor detects a touch operation and outputs a detection signal to the terminal control device 10. The terminal control device 10 executes processing corresponding to the touch operation based on the input from the touch sensor.

[0041] The terminal control device 10 is a control device that controls each part of the terminal device 1. The terminal control device 10 includes a terminal processor 100 which is a processor such as a CPU or an MPU, a terminal memory 110, and an interface circuit for connecting to other devices and sensors, and controls each part of the terminal device 1. The terminal processor 100 corresponds to an example of a "processor".

[0042] The terminal memory 110 is a memory that stores programs and data. The terminal memory 110 stores the control application 111 and the data to be processed by the terminal processor 100. The terminal memory 110 has a non-volatile storage area. Also, the terminal memory 110 includes a volatile storage area and constitutes the work area of the terminal processor 100. The terminal memory 110 is composed of, for example, a ROM and a RAM.

[0043] The terminal processor 100 functions as a terminal communication control unit 101, a display unit 102, and a reception unit 103 by reading and executing the display application 111 stored in the terminal memory 110. The terminal communication control unit 101 is an example of a "request unit".

[0044] The terminal communication control unit 101 communicates with the server device 5 via the terminal communication unit 11.

[0045] The display unit 102 displays, on the touch panel 12, a user interface for controlling the temperature and humidity of the target space SP. In the following description, this user interface is referred to as the "app UI" and is denoted by the reference numeral "120".

[0046] The reception unit 103 receives various operations from the user P via the app UI 120.

[0047] [1-1-4. Configuration of the app UI] Next, with reference to FIGS. 5 to 14, the configuration of the app UI 120 will be described. In FIGS. 5 to 14 and FIGS. 21 to 23, the upward direction in the figure is indicated by the symbol UP, the downward direction in the figure is indicated by the symbol DW, the leftward direction in the figure is indicated by the symbol L, and the rightward direction in the figure is indicated by the symbol R.

[0048] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the app UI 120. The app UI 120 has a first region A1 and a second region A2. In the present embodiment, the first region A1 and the second region A2 are arranged in this order from left to right, but the arrangement mode of the first region A1 and the second region A2 is not limited to the mode shown in each figure.

[0049] The first region A1 is a region for displaying the bird's-eye view image G1. The display size of the bird's-eye view image G1 displayed by the first region A1 may be enlarged and reduced by a predetermined operation such as pinch-in and pinch-out.

[0050] As described above, the bird's-eye view image G1 has the target space image G2 for each target space SP. The target space image G2 is included in the bird's-eye view image G1 and schematically shows the range and position of the target space SP inside the building H. The bird's-eye view image G1 shown in FIG. 5 has three target space images G2, namely, target space images G21, G22, and G23. The target space image G21 shows the first target space SP1, the target space image G22 shows the second target space SP2, and the target space image G23 shows the third target space SP3.

[0051] In each of the target space images G2, the name of the target space SP and the temperature and humidity recently detected by the sensor 2 are displayed. In the example of FIG. 5, in the target space image G21, the name "Workshop" of the first target space SP1 and the temperature and humidity recently detected by the first sensor 21 are displayed. Also, in the example of FIG. 5, in the target space image G22, the name "Cocoon" of the second target space SP2 and the temperature and humidity recently detected by the second sensor 22 are displayed. Also, in the example of FIG. 5, in the target space image G23, the name "Air creation" of the third target space SP3 and the temperature and humidity recently detected by the third sensor 23 are displayed.

[0052] The first area A1 displays each of the target space images G2 in a selectable manner. That is, the bird's-eye view image G1 displayed by the first area A1 displays the target space SP in a selectable manner.

[0053] The second area A2 is an area for displaying information other than the bird's-eye view image G1. When one target space image G2 is selected in the first area A1 and a humidifier 4 is installed in the target space SP indicated by the selected target space image G2, the second area A2 displays a selection screen CG. The selection screen CG is a screen for selecting the usage scene of the target space SP.

[0054] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the app UI120. The upper app UI120 in FIG. 6 shows the case where the second area A2 is displaying the selection screen CG.

[0055] The selection screen CG has a hidden button HB for hiding the selection screen CG in the second area A2. The hidden button HB is a software button and accepts the user's operation.

[0056] The selection screen CG has selection buttons CB, which are software buttons, for each selectable usage scene. In this embodiment, a case where there are four usage scenes of the target space SP, namely "Relaxation", "Discussion", "Repetitive Work", and "Creative Work", is exemplified. "Relaxation" indicates a scene used for taking a break. "Discussion" indicates a scene used for holding a meeting with multiple people. "Repetitive Work" indicates a scene used for performing concentrated work. "Creative Work" indicates a scene used for generating personal ideas.

[0057] Therefore, the selection screen CG of this embodiment has a selection button CB1 for selecting "Discussion", a selection button CB2 for selecting "Creative Work", a selection button CB3 for selecting "Relaxation", and a selection button CB4 for selecting "Repetitive Work".

[0058] Note that for the selection button CB, with respect to the corresponding usage scene, a photo or picture showing the usage scene, a description text explaining the usage scene, the degree of high and low temperature and humidity recommended in the usage scene, etc. are displayed.

[0059] When the selection button CB is selected on the selection screen CG, the second area A2 displays a setting screen SG related to the target space SP selected in the first area A1.

[0060] In this embodiment, there are two types of setting screens SG. The first type is the setting screen SG that is displayed via the selection screen CG. That is, the first type is the setting screen SG related to the target space SP where the humidifier 4 is installed. Hereinafter, this setting screen SG is denoted by the symbol "SG1" and expressed as the "first setting screen SG1". The second type is the setting screen SG that is displayed without passing through the selection screen CG. This setting screen SG is the setting screen SG related to the target space SP where the humidifier 4 is not installed. Hereinafter, this setting screen SG is denoted by the symbol "SG2" and expressed as the "second setting screen SG2".

[0061] Note that in the example of FIG. 6, the first setting screen SG1 when the target space image G21 is selected in the first region A1 and the selection button CB2 of "Creative Work" is selected in the second region A2, when the second region A2 is displaying, is shown.

[0062] Here, after briefly touching on how to use the app UI120 of this embodiment, hereinafter, the first setting screen SG1 and the second setting screen SG2 will be described in detail. When the user P wants to control the air conditioning of the target space SP or wants to check the temperature and humidity of the target space SP, etc., the app UI120 is displayed on the terminal device 1. Since the app UI120 has the first region A1, the user P can grasp the temperature and humidity of each target space SP. When the user P wants to set the temperature and humidity of the desired target space SP to the desired temperature and humidity, the user P selects the target space image G2 and causes the setting screen SG to be displayed in the second region A2. Then, the user P performs a touch operation on the setting object SO displayed on the setting screen SG or the matrix diagram MD displayed on the setting screen SG, to set at least either the temperature or the humidity of the desired target space SP to the desired degree. Note that the setting object SO and the matrix diagram MD will be described later. When at least one of the temperature and humidity of the target space SP is set on the setting screen SG, in the control system 1000, the indoor unit 3, or the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 will be controlled according to the settings made on the setting screen SG.

[0063] [1-1-4-1. Configuration of the First Setting Screen] Now, the setting screen SG will be described in detail. First, the configuration of the first setting screen SG1 will be explained. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the first setting screen SG1.

[0064] The first setting screen SG1 displays a selection object CO for selecting the usage scene of the target space SP. In the present embodiment, the selection object CO is a pull-down UI component, and when operated by the user P, it displays a list of usage scenes of the target space SP. When one usage scene is selected from the list of displayed usage scenes, the selection object CO stops displaying the list of usage scenes and displays the selected usage scene as a character string. Note that at the start of the display of the first setting screen SG1, the selection object CO displays the usage scene selected on the selection screen CG as a character string. The example in FIG. 7 shows the case where the selection object CO displays the usage scene of "Creative Work".

[0065] The first setting screen SG1 displays a matrix diagram MD. The matrix diagram MD is a diagram showing how humans feel about the temperature and humidity of the target space SP. The matrix diagram MD has the first axis set to the warm-cool feeling and the second axis set to the dry-wet feeling. The first axis extends in the vertical direction in the diagram of FIG. 7. That is, the first axis extends in the longitudinal direction of the first setting screen SG1. The second axis extends in the horizontal direction in the diagram of FIG. 7. That is, the second axis extends in the short-side direction of the first setting screen SG1.

[0066] At the upper end of the matrix diagram MD, information J1 indicating a high temperature is displayed. In FIG. 7, the information J1 is the character string "warm". Also, information J2 indicating a low temperature is displayed at the lower end of the matrix diagram MD. In FIG. 7, the information J2 is a character string "Suzu-shii". Also, information J3 indicating a low humidity is displayed at the left end of the matrix diagram MD. In FIG. 7, the information J3 is a character string "Karatto". Also, information J4 indicating a high humidity is displayed at the right end of the matrix diagram MD. In FIG. 7, the information J4 is a character string "Shittori".

[0067] The range of the first axis of the matrix diagram MD is set to a range corresponding to the temperature range that can be set by the indoor unit 3. Also, the range of the second axis of the matrix diagram MD is set to a range corresponding to the humidity range that can be set by the humidifier 4. Note that the ranges of the two axes in the matrix diagram MD are appropriately determined in advance according to the models of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 installed in the target space SP.

[0068] On the first setting screen SG1, a first object OB1 is displayed superimposed on the matrix diagram MD. The first object OB1 is an object indicating the temperature and humidity of the target space SP detected most recently by the sensor 2, and is displayed at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity of the target space SP detected most recently by the sensor 2. In FIG. 7, the case where the first object OB1 is a circular object is illustrated, but the pattern and shape of the first object OB1 are not limited to the pattern and shape shown in FIG. 7.

[0069] On the first setting screen SG1, a detection image G3 is displayed together with the display of the first object OB1. The detection image G3 is an image indicating the temperature and humidity of the target space SP detected most recently by the sensor 2. The detection image G3 is displayed on the setting screen SG in a manner associated with the first object OB1. FIG. 7 illustrates the case where the detection image G3 is a balloon image, but the pattern and shape of the detection image G3 are not limited to the pattern and shape shown in FIG. 7. Note that the detection image G3 may be made non-displayed after the elapse of a predetermined period from the start of display.

[0070] On the first setting screen SG1, a target space recommended range RA1 is displayed superimposed on the matrix diagram MD. The target space recommended range RA1 is a rectangular range with rounded corners, and is a range indicating the recommended temperature / cold feeling and dry / wet feeling in the target space SP. The target space recommended range RA1 is a range in which a person in the target space SP feels comfortable, and is predetermined by prior tests, simulations, etc. Note that the shape of the target space recommended range RA1 is not limited to a rectangle with rounded corners, and may be other shapes such as a rectangle, a circle, an ellipse, a triangle, etc. The target space recommended range RA1 is an example of the "second recommended range".

[0071] On the first setting screen SG1, a usage scene recommended range RA2 is displayed superimposed on the target space recommended range RA1. The usage scene recommended range RA2 is a range indicating the recommended temperature / cold feeling and dry / wet feeling in the target space SP in the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO. Specifically, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is "Creative Work", on the first setting screen SG1, the first usage scene recommended range RA21 is displayed superimposed on the target space recommended range RA1. Also, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is "Discussion", on the first setting screen SG1, the second usage scene recommended range RA22 is displayed superimposed on the target space recommended range RA1. Also, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is "Relaxation", on the first setting screen SG1, the third usage scene recommended range RA23 is displayed superimposed on the target space recommended range RA1. Also, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is "Repetitive Work", on the first setting screen SG1, the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24 is displayed superimposed on the target space recommended range RA1. Note that in the example of FIG. 7, the case where the first setting screen SG1 is displaying the first usage scene recommended range RA21 is shown.

[0072] Here, referring to FIG. 8, each of the first usage scene recommended range RA21 to the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24 will be described. FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining the recommended range RA2 of the usage scene.

[0073] In the example of FIG. 8, the recommended range RA1 of the target space is set in a range where the range of the first axis corresponds to 18°C to 22°C, and the range of the second axis is set in a range of 35% to 65%. Note that in this embodiment, the range of the recommended range RA1 of the target space is configured to change depending on the season, but it may also be a fixed range regardless of the season.

[0074] The recommended range RA2 of the usage scene corresponds to one of a total of four ranges obtained by dividing the upper, lower, left, and right of the recommended range RA1 of the target space into two parts each. The first recommended range RA21 of the usage scene is the upper left range among the four divided ranges. The second recommended range RA22 of the usage scene is the upper right range among the four divided ranges. The third recommended range RA23 of the usage scene is the lower right range among the four divided ranges. The fourth recommended range RA24 of the usage scene is the lower left range among the four divided ranges.

[0075] The first recommended range RA21 of the usage scene is a range of a rectangle with rounded upper left corners. In the example of FIG. 8, the range of the first axis corresponds to a range of 20°C to 22°C, and the range of the second axis corresponds to a range of 35% to 50%. The second recommended range RA22 of the usage scene is a range of a rectangle with rounded upper right corners. In the example of FIG. 8, the range of the first axis corresponds to a range of 20°C to 22°C, and the range of the second axis corresponds to a range of 50% to 65%. The third recommended range RA23 of the usage scene is a range of a rectangle with rounded lower right corners. In the example of FIG. 8, the range of the first axis corresponds to a range of 18°C to 20°C, and the range of the second axis corresponds to a range of 50% to 65%. The fourth recommended range RA24 of the usage scene is a range of a rectangle with rounded lower left corners. In the example of FIG. 8, the range of the first axis corresponds to a range of 18°C to 20°C, and the range of the second axis corresponds to a range of 35% to 50%.

[0076] As described above, the target space recommended range RA1 has a configuration in which the range changes according to the season, but the relative positions of the first usage scene recommended range RA21 to the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24 do not change.

[0077] As shown in FIG. 8, one usage scene recommended range RA2 corresponds to one of the ranges obtained by dividing the target space recommended range RA1. Therefore, the usage scene recommended range RA2 is a range that does not protrude outside the target space recommended range RA1 and is a range narrower than the target space recommended range RA1.

[0078] Returning to the description of the first setting screen SG1 with reference to FIG. 7, on the first setting screen SG1, a second object OB2 is displayed superimposed on the matrix diagram MD. The second object OB2 is an object indicating the temperature and humidity of the target space SP set by the user P on the setting screen SG. The second object OB2 is displayed at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity of the target space SP set by the user P on the setting screen SG. Note that the pattern and shape of the second object OB2 are not limited to the pattern and shape shown in FIG. 7.

[0079] The first setting screen SG1 displays a first line L1 extending from the second object OB2 along the first axis direction, and also displays a second line L2 extending from the second object OB2 along the second axis direction. The first axis L1 extends from the upper end to the lower end in the matrix diagram MD, and the second axis L2 extends from the left end to the right end in the matrix diagram MD. As a result, it becomes easier to understand on the matrix diagram MD at which positions the second object OB2 is located with respect to the first axis and the second axis, so that the user P can easily and intuitively grasp what kind of state the set temperature and humidity are in terms of human sensation.

[0080] The first setting screen SG1 displays a setting object SO for the user P to set the temperature and humidity of the target space SP. The setting object SO includes a first setting object SO1 for setting the temperature of the target space SP and a second setting object SO2 for setting the humidity of the target space SP.

[0081] The first setting object SO1 includes a temperature increase object TO1 for increasing the temperature of the target space SP to be set by 1°C and a temperature decrease object TO2 for decreasing the temperature of the target space SP to be set by 1°C. The temperature increase object TO1 and the temperature decrease object TO2 are so-called software buttons that accept the operation of the user P. In FIG. 7, the temperature increase object TO1 is a software button located on the right side of the matrix diagram MD and displays the symbol “+”. Also, in FIG. 7, the temperature decrease object TO2 is a software button located on the right side of the matrix diagram MD and displays the symbol “−”.

[0082] The first setting object SO1 includes set temperature information J5. The set temperature information J5 is information indicating the temperature of the target space SP set by at least one of the temperature increase object TO1 and the temperature decrease object TO2. Note that the temperature indicated by the set temperature information J5 also changes in correspondence with the movement of the second object OB2 by a direct operation on the matrix diagram MD.

[0083] The first setting object SO1 is displayed on the right side of the matrix diagram MD. The set temperature information J5, the temperature increase object TO1, and the temperature decrease object TO2 are arranged and displayed in this order from top to bottom along the direction in which the first axis extends.

[0084] The second setting object SO2 includes a humidity increase object HO1 for increasing the humidity of the target space SP to be set by 1%, and a humidity decrease object HO2 for decreasing the humidity of the target space SP to be set by 1%. The humidity increase object HO1 and the humidity decrease object HO2 are so-called software buttons and receive the operation of the user P. In FIG. 7, the humidity increase object HO1 is a software button located below the matrix diagram MD and displays the symbol of "+". Also, in FIG. 7, the humidity decrease object HO2 is a software button located below the matrix diagram MD and displays the symbol of "-".

[0085] The second setting object SO2 includes set humidity information J6. The set humidity information J6 is information indicating the humidity of the target space SP set by at least one of the humidity increase object HO1 and the humidity decrease object HO2. Note that the humidity indicated by the set humidity information J6 also changes in correspondence with the movement of the second object OB2 by a direct operation on the matrix diagram MD.

[0086] The second setting object SO2 is displayed below the matrix diagram MD. The set humidity information J6, the humidity decrease object HO2, and the humidity increase object HO1 are arranged and displayed from left to right in this order along the direction in which the second axis extends.

[0087] On the first setting screen SG1, the display position of the second object OB2 changes according to the operation of the user P received by the setting object SO. Specifically, when the temperature increase object TO1 is operated once, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the position where the temperature has increased by 1°C. Also, when the temperature decrease object TO2 is operated once, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the position where the temperature has decreased by 1°C. Further, when the humidity increase object HO1 is operated once, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the position where the humidity has increased by 1%. Additionally, when the humidity decrease object HO2 is operated once, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the position where the humidity has decreased by 1%.

[0088] Figure 9 is a diagram for explaining the display position of the second object OB2. On the left first setting screen SG1 of Figure 9, the display position of the second object OB2 is the position corresponding to "21°C" and corresponding to "42%". That is, the left first setting screen SG1 of Figure 9 indicates that the temperature of the target space SP set on the first setting screen SG1 is "21°C", and indicates that the humidity of the target space SP set on the first setting screen SG1 is "42%".

[0089] On the left first setting screen SG1 of Figure 9, when the temperature decrease object TO2 is operated once and the humidity increase object HO1 is operated 8 times, as shown in the right first setting screen SG1 of Figure 9, on the first setting screen SG1, the temperature of the target space SP set by the user P changes to "20°C", and the humidity of the target space SP set by the user P changes to "50%". Along with this change, as shown in the right first setting screen SG1 of Figure 9, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the lower right. Also, along with this change, as shown in the right first setting screen SG1 of Figure 9, the temperature indicated by the set temperature information J5 changes from "21°C" to "20°C", and the humidity indicated by the set humidity information J6 changes from "42%" to "50%".

[0090] As specifically described with reference to FIG. 9, the user P can change the temperature and humidity of the target space SP to be set by operating the setting object SO on the first setting screen SG1. Note that when the setting object SO has not been operated for a predetermined time after the setting object SO is operated, the terminal device 1 performs the following process. That is, the terminal device 1 makes a control request for temperature and humidity to the server device 5 so that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP become the temperature and humidity corresponding to the display position of the second object OB2. Thereby, by operating the setting object SO, the control of the temperature and humidity of the target space SP automatically starts so as to be the temperature and humidity set on the first setting screen SG1. Therefore, the user P can set the temperature and humidity of the target space SP by the first setting screen SG1 in the same manner as the conventional remote control used for air conditioning control.

[0091] On the first setting screen SG1, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed according to the operation of the user P on the selection object CO, the display position of the second object OB2 and the type of the usage scene recommendation range RA2 to be displayed change.

[0092] FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining the first setting screen SG1 when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed. In the first setting screen SG1 on the left of FIG. 10, since the second object OB2 is located in the first usage scene recommendation range SG1, the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is "Creative Work". Also, in the first setting screen SG1 on the left of FIG. 10, it shows that the temperature of the target space SP set by the user P is "20°C", and the humidity of the target space SP set by the user P is "42%". Therefore, in the first setting screen SG1 on the left of FIG. 10, the second object OB2 is displayed at a position corresponding to "20°C" and corresponding to "42%".

[0093] In the first setting screen SG1 on the left of FIG. 10, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed from "Creative Work" to "Relaxation", as shown in the first setting screen SG1 on the right of FIG. 10, in the first setting screen SG1, the first usage scene recommended range RA21 becomes invisible, and the third usage scene recommended range RA23 is newly displayed. Along with the display of this third usage scene recommended range RA23, in the first setting screen SG1, the second object OB2 is displayed at the default position when the third usage scene recommended range RA23 is displayed. In FIG. 10, this default position is approximately the center position of the third usage scene recommended range RA23, specifically, the position corresponding to a temperature of "19°C" and a humidity of "57%". Also, along with the change in the display of this second object OB2, as shown in the first setting screen SG1 on the right of FIG. 10, the temperature indicated by the set temperature information J5 changes from "20°C" to "19°C", and the humidity indicated by the set humidity information J6 changes from "42%" to "57%". Note that the default position when the third usage scene recommended range RA23 is displayed is not limited to approximately the center, and it may be within the third usage scene recommended range RA23.

[0094] Note that in FIG. 10, the case where the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed from another usage scene to "Relaxation" is illustrated. However, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed to "Discussion", the following occurs. That is, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed to "Discussion", on the first setting screen SG1, the usage scene recommended range RA2 corresponding to the usage scene before the change becomes invisible, and the second usage scene recommended range RA22 is newly displayed. Along with the display of this second usage scene recommended range RA22, on the first setting screen SG1, the second object OB2 is displayed at the default position when the second usage scene recommended range RA22 is displayed. Note that this default position is approximately the center position of the second usage scene recommended range RA22, specifically, the position corresponding to a temperature of "21°C" and a humidity of "57%". Also, along with the change in the display of this second object OB2, on the first setting screen SG1, the temperature indicated by the set temperature information J5 changes to "21°C", and the humidity indicated by the set humidity information J6 changes to "57%". Note that the default position when the second usage scene recommended range RA22 is displayed is not limited to the approximate center, and it may be within the second usage scene recommended range RA22.

[0095] Also, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed from another usage scene to "Repetitive Work", the following occurs. That is, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed to "Repetitive Work", on the first setting screen SG1, the usage scene recommended range RA2 corresponding to the usage scene before the change becomes invisible, and the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24 is newly displayed. Along with the display of this fourth usage scene recommended range RA24, on the first setting screen SG1, the second object OB2 is displayed at the default position when the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24 is displayed. Note that this default position is approximately the center position of the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24, specifically, the position corresponding to a temperature of "19°C" and a humidity of "42%". Also, along with the change in the display of this second object OB2, on the first setting screen SG1, the temperature indicated by the set temperature information J5 changes to "19°C", and the humidity indicated by the set humidity information J6 changes to "42%". Note that the default position when displaying the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24 is not limited to approximately the center, and it may be within the fourth usage scene recommended range RA24.

[0096] Also, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed from other usage scenes to "Creative Work", the following occurs. That is, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed to "Creative Work", on the first setting screen SG1, the usage scene recommended range RA2 corresponding to the usage scene before the change becomes non-displayed, and the first usage scene recommended range RA21 is newly displayed. Along with the display of this first usage scene recommended range RA21, on the first setting screen SG1, the second object OB2 is displayed at the default position when displaying the first usage scene recommended range RA21. Note that this default position is approximately the center position of the first usage scene recommended range RA21, specifically, the position corresponding to a temperature of "21°C" and a humidity of "42%". Also, along with the display change of this second object OB2, on the first setting screen SG1, the temperature indicated by the set temperature information J5 changes to "21°C", and the humidity indicated by the set humidity information J6 changes to "42%". Note that the default position when displaying the first usage scene recommended range RA21 is not limited to approximately the center, and it may be within the first usage scene recommended range RA21.

[0097] As specifically described with reference to FIG. 10, when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the default position corresponding to the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO. Note that even when the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO is changed and the second object OB2 is displayed at the default position, the terminal device 1 does not make the control requests for temperature and humidity as described for the setting object SO to the server device 5. That is, when the second object OB2 is displayed at the default position, the terminal device 1 makes the control request to the server device 5 when the operation control object PO described later is operated. Note that even if the operation control object PO is not operated, the terminal device 1 may make a control request to the server device 5 so that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP become the temperature and humidity corresponding to the default position.

[0098] Furthermore, the display position of the second object OB2 will be described. By the user P selecting an arbitrary position on the matrix diagram MD, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the arbitrary position selected by the user P. Note that as an operation by the user P for selecting an arbitrary position, a touch operation is exemplified in the present embodiment.

[0099] FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining the display position of the second object OB2. In the first setting screen SG1 on the left in FIG. 11, the temperature of the target space SP set by the user P is "21°C", and the humidity of the target space SP set by the user P is "42%". Therefore, in the first setting screen SG1 on the left in FIG. 11, the second object OB2 is displayed at a position corresponding to "21°C" and corresponding to "42%".

[0100] On the first setting screen SG1 on the left in FIG. 11, when the user selects position P1 as an arbitrary position, as shown in the first setting screen SG1 on the right in FIG. 11, on the first setting screen SG1, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to position P1. Note that position P1 is a position where the first axis corresponds to "19 °C" and the second axis corresponds to "42%". Along with this change in the display of the second object OB2, as shown in the first setting screen SG1 on the right in FIG. 11, the temperature indicated by the set temperature information J5 changes from "21 °C" to "19 °C". Also, the usage scene displayed by the selected object CO changes from "Creative Work" to "Repetitive Work".

[0101] As specifically described with reference to FIG. 11, when the user P selects an arbitrary position in the matrix diagram MD, the display position of the second object OB2 changes to the arbitrary position selected by the user P. Along with this, the usage scene displayed by the selected object CO also changes corresponding to the display position of the second object OB2. Note that when an arbitrary position is selected in the matrix diagram MD by the terminal device 1, the terminal device 1 makes a request to the server device 5 for controlling the temperature and humidity so that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP become the temperature and humidity corresponding to the display position of the second object OB2. Thereby, when an arbitrary position is selected in the matrix diagram MD, the control of the temperature and humidity of the target space SP automatically starts so that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP become the temperature and humidity corresponding to the selected arbitrary position.

[0102] Note that when the arbitrary position selected by the user P is a position outside the target space recommended range RA1 in the matrix diagram MD, on the first setting screen SG1, similar to the description with reference to FIG. 11, the temperature and humidity corresponding to the position of the second object OB2 are displayed, and a request for controlling the temperature and humidity is made to the server device 5 so that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP become the temperature and humidity corresponding to the display position of the second object OB2. If an arbitrary position selected by the other party, User P, is outside the matrix diagram MD, the first setting screen SG1 does not accept the operation of User P selecting an arbitrary position, or notifies that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP cannot be set.

[0103] Returning to the description of the first setting screen SG1 with reference to FIG. 7, the first setting screen SG1 displays the operation control object PO. The operation control object PO is a software button that controls the start and stop of the operation of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 when the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 are installed in the target space SP, and is a software button that controls the start and stop of the operation of the indoor unit 3 when the indoor unit 3 is installed in the target space SP.

[0104] When the operation control object PO is operated within a predetermined period after the display position of the second object OB2 is displayed at the default position when the usage scene recommended range RA2 is displayed, the terminal device 1 requests the server device 5 to control the temperature and humidity so that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP become the temperature and humidity corresponding to this default position.

[0105] [1-1-4-2. Configuration of the second setting screen] Next, the second setting screen SG2 will be described. When the target space image G2 of the target space SP where the humidifier 4 is not installed is selected in the first area A1 of the app UI120, the second area A2 displays the second setting screen SG2.

[0106] Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 12, the differences between the second setting screen SG2 and the first setting screen SG1 will be described. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an example of the second setting screen SG2.

[0107] The second setting screen SG2 displays the second setting object SO2 in a manner indicating that humidity cannot be set, as compared with the first setting screen SG1. In the present embodiment, graying out is exemplified as the manner indicating that humidity cannot be set, but the manner is not limited to graying out. Note that, in the second setting screen SG2, the second setting object SO2 may not be displayed.

[0108] On the second setting screen SG2, operations on the second setting object SO2 are not accepted, as compared with the first setting screen SG1. That is, on the second setting screen SG2, the humidity of the target space SP cannot be set by the second setting object SO2.

[0109] The second setting screen SG2 displays a usage scene recommended range RA2 including the position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the humidity most recently detected by the sensor 2, as compared with the first setting screen SG1. FIG. 12 exemplifies the case where the second setting screen SG2 displays the usage scene recommended range RA21.

[0110] On the second setting screen SG2, the selection object CO is not accepted for selection of the usage scene, as compared with the first setting screen SG1. That is, on the second setting screen SG2, the type of the displayed usage scene recommended range RA2 cannot be switched.

[0111] The display position of the second object OB2 is restricted to be on the virtual line KL, on the second setting screen SG2, as compared with the first setting screen SG1. The virtual line KL is a line passing through the first object OB1 and parallel to the first axis. That is, on the second setting screen SG2, the humidity of the target space SP to be set cannot be changed by selecting an arbitrary position.

[0112] The details of the setting screen SG have been described so far. Here, the advantages of the setting screen SG will be briefly mentioned. While the matrix diagram MD has the advantage that the user P can intuitively recognize the warmth / coldness and dryness / humidity of the current target space SP, there is a possibility that it is difficult for the user to determine where to set the desired state, which is the target value of the air conditioning control. Therefore, on the setting screen SG of the present embodiment, the target space recommended range RA1 and the second object OB2 are displayed. As a result, since the target space recommended range RA1 is displayed, the user P can set the desired state as the target value while referring to this range. Further, since the temperature and humidity corresponding to the second object OB2 selected by the user P are also displayed, the user P can set the desired state as the target value by referring not only to qualitative information such as warmth / coldness and dryness / humidity but also to quantitative information such as the set temperature and set humidity.

[0113] Now, returning to the description of the app UI120, the above-described app UI120 has described the case where the second area A2 displays the setting screen SG. In the second area A2, the app UI120 can display a list of space-related screens ACG in addition to the setting screen SG. One space-related screen ACG is a screen related to one target space SP. The app UI120 displays the space-related screen ACG for each target space SP in the second area A2. The space-related screen ACG is a screen that displays information related to the target space SP, such as the usage scene set on the setting screen SG.

[0114] FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of the app UI120. FIG. 13 shows, in the second area A2, a space-related screen ACG1 related to the first target space SP1, a space-related screen ACG2 related to the second target space SP2, and a space-related screen ACG3 related to the third target space SP3.

[0115] As shown in FIG. 13, the space-related screen ACG1 displays the matrix diagram MD, the target space recommended range RA1, the usage scene recommended range RA2, and the first object OB1, which are the same as the first setting screen SG1 related to the first target space SP1. In addition, the space-related screen ACG2 displays a matrix diagram MD, a target space recommended range RA1, a usage scene recommended range RA2, and a first object OB1, which are the same as those on the second setting screen SG2 for the second target space SP2. In addition, the space-related screen ACG3 displays a matrix diagram MD, a target space recommended range RA1, a usage scene recommended range RA2, and a first object OB1, which are the same as those on the second setting screen SG2 for the third target space SP3.

[0116] When the power of the indoor unit 3 in the corresponding first target space SP is off, that is, when the indoor unit 3 is not operating, the string indicating the usage scene of the target space SP becomes invisible on the space-related screen ACG, and the usage scene recommended range RA2 also becomes invisible.

[0117] FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of the application UI120. In FIG. 14, in the second area A2, a space-related screen ACG1 for the first target space SP1, a space-related screen ACG2 for the second target space SP2, and a space-related screen ACG3 for the third target space SP3 are displayed. In FIG. 14, a case where the indoor unit 3 of the second target space SP2 is not operating is illustrated. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 14, the space-related screen ACG2 does not display the string indicating the usage scene of the target space SP, and also does not display the usage scene recommended range RA2.

[0118] [1-2. Operations] Next, the operations of each part of the control system 1000 will be described.

[0119] [1-2-1. Operations related to sensor detection] First, the operations related to the detection of the sensor 2 will be described. FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing the operations of the sensor 2 and the server device 5. In FIG. 15, the flowchart FA shows the operations of the sensor 2, and the flowchart FB shows the operations of the server device 5.

[0120] As shown in flowchart FA, sensor 2 determines whether a predetermined period for detecting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP has arrived (step SA1).

[0121] When sensor 2 determines that the predetermined period for detecting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP has arrived (step SA1: YES), it detects the temperature and humidity of the target space SP (step SA2). Step SA2 is an example of a "detection step".

[0122] Next, sensor 2 transmits the detection data D1 in which the temperature and humidity detected in step SA2 are recorded to the server device 5 (step SA3).

[0123] As shown in flowchart FB, the server communication control unit 501 receives the detection data D1 from sensor 2 (step SB1).

[0124] Next, the update unit 502 updates the detection data D1 in record R1 with the detection data D1 received in step SB1 (step SB2).

[0125] [1-2-2. Operations When Starting to Display the App UI] Next, the operations when starting to display the app UI120 will be described. FIG. 16 is a flowchart showing the operations of the terminal device 1 and the server device 5. In FIG. 16, flowchart FC shows the operations of the terminal device 1, and flowchart FD shows the operations of the server device 5.

[0126] As shown in flowchart FC, the terminal communication control unit 101 transmits the first request information to the server device 5 (step SC1). As an example of the trigger for the start of step SC1, the case where the control app 111 starts up can be cited.

[0127] The first request information is information for requesting data related to the start of the display of the app UI 120. A building ID is added to the first request information. Note that the building ID is input to the terminal device 1 at a predetermined timing, such as when the control app 111 is installed or when the control app 111 starts up, and is stored in the terminal memory 110.

[0128] As shown in the flowchart FD, the server communication control unit 501 receives the first request information from the terminal device 1 (step SD1).

[0129] Next, the server communication control unit 501 reads out records R1 and R2 having the building ID added to the received first request information from the first management DB 512 and the second management DB 513 (step SD2).

[0130] Next, the server communication control unit 501 transmits the records R1 and R2 read out in step SD2 to the terminal device 1 (step SD3).

[0131] As shown in the flowchart FC, the terminal communication control unit 101 receives the records R1 and R2 from the server device 5 (step SC2).

[0132] Next, the display unit 102 starts the display of the app UI 120 based on the records R1 and R2 received in step SC2 (step SC3).

[0133] Step SC3 will be described in detail. For each piece of image data of the target space image G2 included in the bird's-eye view image data of the record R2, the display unit 102 identifies a sub-record SR1 with a matching space ID from the record R2. Next, for each piece of image data of the target space image G2, the display unit 102 generates an overhead view image G1 by generating a target space image G2 in which the temperature and humidity indicated by the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1 are displayed. Then, the display unit 102 displays the generated overhead view image G1 in the second area A2.

[0134] When the display of the app UI 120 starts, in the control system 1000, operations related to updating the display content of the app UI 120 are started. Next, with reference to FIG. 17, operations related to updating the display content of the app UI 120 will be described.

[0135] [1-2-3. Operations Related to Updating the Display Content of the App UI] FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing the operations of the terminal device 1 and the server device 5. In FIG. 17, flowchart FE shows the operations of the terminal device 1, and flowchart FF shows the operations of the server device 5.

[0136] As shown in flowchart FE, the terminal communication control unit 101 transmits second request information to the server device 5 (step SE1). Examples of the trigger for starting step SE1 include that a predetermined period has elapsed since the display of the app IU 120 started, or a predetermined period has elapsed since the display content of the app UI 120 was updated last time.

[0137] The second request information is information for requesting data related to updating the display content of the app UI 120. A building ID is added to the second request information.

[0138] As shown in flowchart FF, the server communication control unit 501 receives the second request information from the terminal device 1 (step SF1).

[0139] Next, the server communication control unit 501 reads records R1, R2 having the building ID added to the received second request information from the first management DB 512 and the second management DB 513 (step SF2).

[0140] Next, the server communication control unit 501 transmits the records R1, R2 read in step SF2 to the terminal device 1 (step SF3).

[0141] As shown in flowchart FE, the terminal communication control unit 101 receives records R1 and R2 from the server device 5 (step SE2).

[0142] Next, the display unit 102 updates the display content of the app UI120 based on the records R1 and R2 received in step SE2 (step SE3).

[0143] Step SE3 will be described in detail below. The display unit 102 updates the temperature and humidity displayed by the target space image G2 based on the records R1 and R2 by performing the same data processing as in step SC3. When the second area A2 is displaying the setting screen SG, the display unit 102 identifies the sub-record SR1 of the target space SP corresponding to the displayed setting screen SG by the space ID. Then, the display unit 102 displays the first object OB1 at the position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity indicated by the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1. Also, the display unit 102 displays a detection image G3 that displays the temperature and humidity indicated by the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1. When the second area A2 is displaying the space-related screen ACG, for each displayed space-related screen ACG, the display unit 102 identifies the corresponding sub-record SR1 by the space ID. For each space-related screen ACG, the display unit 102 updates the display position of the first object OB1 to the position corresponding to the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1. In addition, when it is recorded in the first status data D2 of the identified sub-record SR1 that it is not in operation, the display unit 102 updates the space-related screen ACG corresponding to the identified sub-record SR1 to a state indicating that it is not in operation.

[0144] [1-2-4. Operations related to the display of the setting screen SG] Next, the operations related to the display of the setting screen SG will be described. FIG. 18 is a flowchart FH showing the operations of the terminal device 1.

[0145] The display unit 102 determines whether the reception unit 103 has received an operation to select the target space image G2 (step SH1).

[0146] When the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has not received an operation to select the target space image G2 (step SH1: NO), it makes the determination in step SH1 again.

[0147] On the other hand, when the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has received an operation to select the target space image G2 (step SH1: YES), it determines whether the humidifier 4 is installed in the target space SP indicated by the selected target space image G2 (step SH2).

[0148] Here, step SH2 will be described in detail. After the display start of the app UI 120, the display unit 102 performs the process of step SH2 based on the most recently received record R1. The display unit 102 identifies a sub-record SR1 having the space ID of the target space SP indicated by the selected target space image G2 from the received record R1. Then, when the fourth field of the identified sub-record SR1 is blank, the display unit 102 makes a negative determination in step SH2, and when the fourth field of the identified sub-record SR1 is not blank, the display unit 102 makes an affirmative determination in step SH2.

[0149] When the display unit 102 determines that the humidifier 4 is not installed in the target space SP indicated by the selected target space image G2 (step SGH: NO), it displays the second setting screen SG2 in the second area A2 (step SH3). Step SH3 is an example of a "display step".

[0150] Here, step SH3 will be described in detail. After the display unit 102 starts displaying the app UI 120, it performs the process of step SH3 based on the most recently received record R1. The display unit 102 identifies a sub-record SR1 having the space ID of the target space SP indicated by the selected target space image G2 from the received record R1. Then, the display unit 102 displays the first object OB1 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity indicated by the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1. In addition, the display unit 102 displays a detection image G3 that displays the temperature and humidity indicated by the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1. In addition, the display unit 102 displays a usage scene recommendation range RA2 including the display position of the first object OB1 on the matrix diagram MD. In addition, the display unit 102 displays a second object OB2 on the matrix diagram MD. Note that the display position of the second object OB2 only needs to be such that the position on the second axis corresponds to the humidity recorded in the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1.

[0151] Returning to the description of step SH2, when the display unit 102 determines that the humidifier 4 is installed in the target space SP indicated by the selected target space image G2 (step SH2: YES), it displays the selection screen CG in the second area A2 (step SH4).

[0152] Next, the display unit 102 determines whether the reception unit 103 has received an operation of the selection button CB (step SH5).

[0153] When the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has not received an operation of the selection button CB (step SH5: NO), it determines whether the reception unit 103 has received an operation of the non-display button HB (step SH6).

[0154] When the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has not received an operation of the non-display button HB (step SH6: YES), it returns the process to step SH5 and performs the determination of step SH5 again.

[0155] On the other hand, when the reception unit 103 determines that it has received an operation of the non-display button HB (step SH6: NO), the display unit 102 hides the selection screen CG (step SH7) and ends this process.

[0156] Returning to the description of step SG5, when the reception unit 103 determines that it has received an operation of the selection button CB (step SH5: YES), the display unit 102 displays the first setting screen SG1 in the second area A2 (step SH8). Step SH8 is an example of a "display step".

[0157] Here, step SH8 will be described in detail. After the display start of the application UI120, the display unit 102 performs the process of step SH8 based on the most recently received record R1. The display unit 102 identifies a sub-record SR1 having the space ID of the target space SP indicated by the selected target space image G2 from the received record R1. Then, the display unit 102 displays the first object OB1 at the position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity indicated by the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1. In addition, the display unit 102 displays a detection image G3 that displays the temperature and humidity indicated by the detection data D1 of the identified sub-record SR1. In addition, the display unit 102 displays the recommended usage scene range RA2 corresponding to the operated selection button CB on the matrix diagram MD. In addition, the display unit 102 displays the second object OB2 at the default position when displaying the recommended usage scene range RA2 corresponding to the operated selection button CB.

[0158] Next, the operation related to setting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP by the setting screen SG will be described. In the description of this operation, the setting by the first setting screen SG1 and the setting by the second setting screen SG2 will be described separately.

[0159] [1-2-5. Operation related to setting temperature and humidity by the first setting screen] First, the operation related to setting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP by the first setting screen SG1 will be described. FIG. 19 is a flowchart showing the operations of the terminal device 1 and the server device 5. In FIG. 19, flowchart FI shows the operation of the terminal device 1, and flowchart FJ shows the operation of the server device 5. In the flowchart of FIG. 19, it is assumed that the second area A2 is displaying the first setting screen SG1.

[0160] As shown in flowchart FI, the display unit 102 determines whether the reception unit 103 has received a selection of an arbitrary position in the matrix diagram MD (step SI1).

[0161] When the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has received a selection of an arbitrary position in the matrix diagram MD (step SI1: YES), the display unit 102 displays the second object OB2 at the arbitrary position (step SI2). Then, the terminal processor 100 performs the process of step SI8.

[0162] When the display unit 102 determines that it has not received a selection of an arbitrary position in the matrix diagram MD (step SI1: NO), the display unit 102 determines whether the reception unit 103 has received an operation on the setting object SO (step SI3).

[0163] When the display unit 102 determines that it has received an operation on the setting object SO (step SI3: YES), the display unit 102 displays the second object OB2 at a position corresponding to the operation on the setting object SO (step SI4).

[0164] Next, the display unit 102 determines whether a predetermined time or more has elapsed since the reception unit 103 last received an operation on the setting object SO until it has not received an operation on the setting object SO (step SI5).

[0165] When the display unit 102 determines that the time during which the reception unit 103 has not received an operation on the setting object SO has not elapsed for a predetermined time or more (step SI5: NO), the display unit 102 determines whether the reception unit 103 has received an operation on the setting object SO again (step SI6).

[0166] When the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has received an operation on the setting object SO again (step SI6: YES), the display unit 102 performs the process of step SI4.

[0167] On the other hand, when the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has not received an operation on the setting object SO again (step SI6: NO), the display unit 102 performs the process of step SI5.

[0168] Returning to the description of step SI5, when the terminal processor 100 determines that the time during which the reception unit 103 has not received an operation on the setting object SO has elapsed for a predetermined time or more (step SI5: YES), the terminal processor 100 performs the process of step SI8.

[0169] Returning to the description of step SI3, when the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has not received an operation on the setting object SO (step SI3: NO), the display unit 102 determines whether the reception unit 103 has received an operation on the operation control object PO (step SI7).

[0170] When the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has not received an operation on the operation control object PO (step SI7: NO), the display unit 102 returns the process to step SI1 and performs the processes after step SI1 again.

[0171] On the other hand, when the display unit 102 determines that the reception unit 103 has received an operation on the operation control object PO (step SI7: YES), the terminal processor 100 performs the process of step SI8.

[0172] In step SI8, the terminal communication control unit 101 transmits the third request information to the server device 5 (step SI8). The third request information is information for requesting control of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 such that the temperature of the target space SP becomes the temperature corresponding to the display position of the second object OB2 and the humidity of the target space SP becomes the humidity corresponding to the display position of the second object OB2. The space ID of the target space SP to be set on the first setting screen SG1 is added to the third request information.

[0173] As shown in flowchart FJ, the server communication control unit 501 receives the third request information from the terminal device 1 (step SJ1).

[0174] Next, the server communication control unit 501 controls the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 based on the third request information (step SJ2). Step SJ2 is an example of a "control step".

[0175] Step SJ2 will be described in detail. For example, in step SJ2, the server communication control unit 501 transmits first control instruction information to the indoor unit 3. The first control instruction information is information for instructing temperature control such that the temperature of the target space SP becomes the temperature recorded in the third request information received in step SJ1. The server communication control unit 501 reads out the sub-record SR2 having the space ID added to the third request information from the second management DB513 and transmits the first control instruction information based on the first communication information of the read sub-record SR2. When the indoor unit 3 receives the first control instruction information, it performs air conditioning such that the temperature of the target space SP becomes the temperature instructed by the received first control instruction information.

[0176] Also, in step SJ2, the server communication control unit 501 transmits second control instruction information to the humidifier 4. The second control instruction information is information instructing humidity control so that the humidity in the target space SP becomes the humidity recorded in the third request information received in step SJ1. The server communication control unit 501 reads out a sub-record SR2 having the space ID added to the third request information from the second management DB513, and transmits the second control instruction information based on the second communication information of the read sub-record SR2. When the humidifier 4 receives the second control instruction information, it performs air conditioning so that the humidity in the target space SP becomes the humidity instructed by the received second control instruction information.

[0177] [1-2-6. Operations related to temperature setting on the second setting screen] First, operations related to setting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP on the second setting screen SG2 will be described. FIG. 20 is a flowchart showing the operations of the terminal device 1 and the server device 5. In FIG. 20, flowchart FK shows the operations of the terminal device 1, and flowchart FL shows the operations of the server device 5. In the flowchart of FIG. 20, it is assumed that the second area A2 is displaying the second setting screen SG2. In the description of FIG. 20, the same step numbers are assigned to steps similar to those in FIG. 19, and the detailed description thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

[0178] The terminal communication control unit 101 transmits fourth request information to the server device 5 (step SK1). The fourth request information is information requesting control of the indoor unit 3 so that the temperature in the target space SP becomes the temperature corresponding to the display position of the second object OB2. The space ID of the target space SP to be set by the second setting screen SG2 is added to the fourth request information.

[0179] As shown in flowchart FL, the server communication control unit 501 receives the fourth request information from the terminal device 1 (step SL1).

[0180] Next, the server communication control unit 501 controls the indoor unit 3 based on the fourth request information (step SL2). The process of step SL2 is performed in the same manner as step SI2. Step SL2 is an example of a "control step".

[0181] [1-3. Effects, etc.] As described above, the control system 1000 includes a sensor 2 that detects the temperature and humidity of the target space SP, a display unit 102 that displays a matrix diagram MD with the first axis set to the warm / cool feeling and the second axis set to the dry / wet feeling, and displays a first object OB1 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity detected by the sensor 2, an indoor unit 3 that controls the temperature, and a device control unit 503 that controls at least one of a humidifier 4 that controls the humidity. The display unit 102 displays a second object OB2 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity set by the user P, and displays a usage scene of the target space SP corresponding to the position of the second object OB2 in the matrix diagram MD. The device control unit 503 controls at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 based on the position of the second object OB2 in the matrix diagram MD.

[0182] According to this, it is possible to intuitively grasp whether the target space SP is in a warm state, a cool state, a wet state, or a dry state. Therefore, it is possible to intuitively grasp what state the inside of the target space SP is in as a human sense. In addition, since the usage scene of the target space SP is displayed, it is possible to support setting suitable for the desired usage scene.

[0183] The display unit 102 displays a usage scene recommended range RA2, which is the range of the warm / cool feeling and the dry / wet feeling recommended in the target space SP in the displayed usage scene, on the matrix diagram MD.

[0184] According to this, it is possible to easily grasp whether the set temperature and humidity of the target space SP are within the ranges of the warm / cold feeling and dry / wet feeling recommended for the desired usage scene. Therefore, it is possible to further assist in setting the temperature and humidity suitable for the desired usage scene.

[0185] The display unit 102 displays a target space recommended range RA1, which is a range of the warm / cold feeling and dry / wet feeling recommended for the target space SP, in the matrix diagram MD. The target space recommended range RA1 includes the usage scene recommended range RA2 and is a range wider than the usage scene recommended range RA2.

[0186] According to this, it is possible to easily grasp whether the set temperature and humidity of the target space SP are within the ranges of the warm / cold feeling and dry / wet feeling recommended for the target space SP. Therefore, even when the usage scene is not determined, it is possible to set the temperature and humidity suitable for the target space SP. Therefore, it is possible to assist the user P, for whom the usage scene is not determined, in setting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP.

[0187] The display unit 102 displays a selection object CO for selecting a usage scene. The control system 1000 further includes a reception unit 103 that receives the selection of the usage scene via the selection object CO. The display unit 102 displays a second object OB2 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the usage scene received by the reception unit 103.

[0188] According to this, by the user P selecting the usage scene in the selection object CO, it is possible to easily set the temperature and humidity of the target space SP to the temperature and humidity corresponding to the selected usage scene. Therefore, it is possible to further assist in setting the temperature and humidity suitable for the desired usage scene.

[0189] When there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the display unit 102 does not display the selection object CO, or the reception unit 103 does not receive the selection of the usage scene.

[0190] When there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, even if the user selects a usage scene in the selection object CO, the temperature and humidity of the target space SP cannot be set to the temperature and humidity corresponding to the usage scene. Therefore, when there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, by configuring not to display the selection object CO or not to accept the selection of the usage scene, it is possible to prevent a situation where, despite the user P selecting a usage scene, the temperature and humidity of the target space SP cannot be made to correspond to the desired usage scene.

[0191] The display unit 102 displays the second object OB2 at an arbitrary position selected by the user P on the matrix diagram MD.

[0192] According to this, by the user P selecting an arbitrary position on the matrix diagram MD, the temperature and humidity of the target space SP can be changed to the temperature and humidity corresponding to the selected arbitrary position. Therefore, the desired temperature and humidity of the target space SP can be set by a simple operation, and setting the desired temperature and humidity can be more supported.

[0193] The display unit 102 displays a setting object SO for the user P to set the temperature and humidity. The display unit 102 displays the second object OB2 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to at least one of the temperature and humidity set by the setting object SO.

[0194] According to this, by the setting object SO, the temperature and humidity of the target space SP can be changed to the desired temperature and humidity. Therefore, the desired temperature and humidity of the target space SP can be set by a simple operation, and setting the desired temperature and humidity can be more supported.

[0195] The control method by the control system 1000 includes a detection step of detecting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP, a display step of displaying the matrix diagram MD and displaying the first object OB1 at the position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity detected in the detection step, and a control step of controlling at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4. The display step displays a second object at the position on the matrix diagram corresponding to the temperature and humidity set by the user, and displays the usage scene of the target space corresponding to the position of the second object in the matrix diagram. The control step controls at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 based on the position of the second object OB2 in the matrix diagram MD.

[0196] According to this, the same effects as those of the above-described control system 1000 are achieved.

[0197] The control application 111 causes the terminal processor 100 of the terminal device 1 to function as a display unit 102 that displays the matrix diagram MD and displays the first object OB1 at the position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity of the target space SP detected by the sensor 2, and a terminal communication control unit 101 that requests control of at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4. The display unit 102 displays a second object OB2 at the position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity set by the user P, and displays the usage scene of the target space SP corresponding to the position of the second object OB2 in the matrix diagram MD. The terminal communication control unit 101 requests control of at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 based on the position of the second object OB2 in the matrix diagram MD.

[0198] According to this, the same effects as those of the above-described control system 1000 are achieved.

[0199] The control system 1000 includes a sensor 2 that detects the temperature and humidity of the target space SP, a display unit 102 that displays the matrix diagram MD and displays the first object OB1 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity detected by the sensor 2, and a device control unit 503 that controls at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4. The display unit 102 displays a setting object SO for the user P to set the temperature and humidity, and displays a second object OB2 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity set by the setting object SO. The device control unit 503 controls at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 based on the position of the second object in the matrix diagram MD.

[0200] According to this, it is possible to intuitively grasp whether the target space SP is in a warm state, whether the target space SP is in a cool state, whether the target space SP is in a humid state, or whether the target space SP is in a dry state. Therefore, it is possible to intuitively grasp what state the inside of the target space SP is in as a human sense. In addition, since air conditioning control is generally performed with a remote control, the probability that the user P is accustomed to air conditioning settings using the remote control is high. Therefore, in the present embodiment, since the setting object is displayed and the temperature and humidity of the target space can be set with the setting object, the temperature and humidity of the target space can be set by a setting operation with a high probability of familiarity, and the convenience of the user P in setting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP can be improved.

[0201] The setting object SO includes a first setting object SO1 for setting temperature and a second setting object SO2 for setting humidity. The first setting object SO1 includes a temperature increase object TO1 for increasing temperature, a temperature decrease object TO2 for decreasing temperature, and setting temperature information J5 indicating the temperature set by at least one of the temperature increase object TO1 and the temperature decrease object TO2. The second setting object SO2 includes a humidity increase object HO1 for increasing humidity, a humidity decrease object HO2 for decreasing humidity, and setting humidity information J6 indicating the humidity set by at least one of the humidity increase object HO1 and the humidity decrease object HO2.

[0202] According to this, the user P can set the desired temperature and humidity by operating the setting temperature and setting humidity with a high probability of being familiar, which can assist in specifying the position of the second object OB2 that becomes the target value of the air conditioning control in the matrix diagram MD, and can improve the convenience of the user P. Also, the position of the second object OB2 can be finely adjusted by the objects that increase or decrease the setting temperature or setting humidity.

[0203] The first setting object SO1 includes setting temperature information J5 indicating the temperature set by at least one of the temperature increase object TO1 and the temperature decrease object TO2. The second setting object SO2 includes setting humidity information J6 indicating the humidity set by at least one of the humidity increase object HO1 and the humidity decrease object HO2.

[0204] According to this, the user P can easily grasp how much the temperature is set by the object and how much the humidity is set by the object. Therefore, the convenience of the user P can be further improved in setting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP.

[0205] The display unit 102 displays the temperature increase object TO1 and the temperature decrease object TO2 side by side along the direction in which the first axis extends, and displays the humidity increase object HO1 and the humidity decrease object HO2 side by side along the direction in which the second axis extends.

[0206] According to this, since it is possible to intuitively grasp which axis the first setting object SO1 corresponds to and which axis the second setting object SO2 corresponds to, it is possible to suppress incorrect settings in setting the temperature and humidity of the target space SP.

[0207] When there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the display unit 102 does not display the second setting object SO2, or displays the second setting object SO2 in a manner indicating that the humidity setting is impossible.

[0208] When there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the humidity of the target space SP cannot be set to a desired humidity. Therefore, when there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the humidity cannot be set by the second setting object CO2. Therefore, when there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the second setting object SO2 is not displayed, or the second setting object SO2 is displayed in a manner indicating that the humidity setting is impossible. This can prevent a situation where, although the user P is operating the second setting object SO2, the humidity of the target space SP cannot be set to the desired humidity.

[0209] The control system 1000 includes a reception unit 103 that receives selection of an arbitrary position on the matrix diagram MD. The display unit 102 displays the second object OB2 at an arbitrary position received by the reception unit 103, the set temperature information J5 indicates the temperature corresponding to the arbitrary position received by the reception unit 103, and the set humidity information J6 indicates the humidity corresponding to the arbitrary position received by the reception unit 103.

[0210] According to this, by the user P selecting an arbitrary position on the matrix diagram MD, the temperature and humidity of the target space SP can be changed to the temperature and humidity corresponding to the arbitrarily selected position. Thus, the user P can set the desired temperature and humidity by a simple operation, and can assist in setting the desired temperature and humidity.

[0211] When there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the reception unit 103 accepts the selection of an arbitrary position only on the virtual line KL passing through the displayed first object OB1 and parallel to the first axis.

[0212] When there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the humidity of the target space SP cannot be set to the desired humidity. Therefore, when there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the humidity cannot be set by selecting an arbitrary position. Thus, when there is no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the selection of an arbitrary position is restricted to the virtual line KL passing through the first object OB1 and parallel to the first axis. Thereby, in response to there being no humidifier 4 in the target space SP, the air conditioning of the target space SP can be controlled.

[0213] The control method by the control system 1000 includes a detection step of detecting the temperature of the target space SP and the humidity of the target space SP, a display step of displaying the matrix diagram MD and displaying the first object OB1 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity detected in the detection step, and a control step of controlling at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4. The display step displays a setting object SO for the user P to set the temperature and humidity, and displays a second object OB2 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity set by the setting object SO. The control step controls at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 based on the position of the second object OB2 in the matrix diagram MD.

[0214] According to this, it has the same effect as the above-described control system 1000.

[0215] The control application 111 causes the terminal processor 100 of the terminal device 1 to function as a display unit 102 that displays the matrix diagram MD and displays the first object OB1 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature of the target space SP detected by the sensor 2 and the humidity of the target space SP, and a terminal communication control unit 101 that requests control of at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4. The display unit 102 displays a setting object SO for the user P to set the temperature and humidity, and displays a second object OB2 at a position on the matrix diagram MD corresponding to the temperature and humidity set by the setting object SO. The terminal communication control unit 101 requests control of at least one of the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 based on the position of the second object OB2 in the matrix diagram MD.

[0216] According to this, the same effects as those of the control system 1000 described above are achieved.

[0217] (Other embodiments) As described above, as an example disclosed in the present application, the above-described Embodiment 1 has been described. However, the technology in the present disclosure is not limited to this, and can also be applied to embodiments in which changes, replacements, additions, omissions, etc. are made. Further, it is also possible to form a new embodiment by combining the respective components described in the above Embodiment 1. Therefore, other embodiments will be exemplified below.

[0218] In other embodiments, the increase and decrease of the temperature on the setting screen SG may not be in units of 1°C, but may be other degrees of increase and decrease such as in units of 0.5°C. Also, in other embodiments, the increase and decrease of the humidity on the setting screen SG may not be in units of 1%, but may be other degrees of increase and decrease such as in units of 0.5%.

[0219] In other embodiments, even when the "humidity control device" cannot perform humidity control due to a failure or the like, a configuration in which the second setting object SO2 as shown in FIG. 12 is not displayed may be adopted.

[0220] In other embodiments, the control system 1000 may be constructed in an on-premises environment, that is, an environment in which the user P or the administrator of the building H can manage the network and the management device responsible for the server device 5. In the case of this other embodiment, various functions of the server device 5 will be borne by, for example, a management device that centrally manages the building H.

[0221] In other embodiments, the setting object SO may not have the first setting object OB1 and the second setting object SO2, but may be configured such that the temperature and humidity can be set by inputting a numerical value using a software key.

[0222] In other embodiments, in the second area A2 of the app UI120, a first history screen HG1 may be displayed for each target space SP. FIG. 21 is a diagram showing an example of the app UI120 in another embodiment. The first history screen HG1 is a screen that displays plots PR1 of the temperature and humidity set in the past in the matrix diagram MD. In this other embodiment, the server device 5 manages the history of the set temperature and humidity for each target space SP, and in the app UI120, the history managed by the server device 5 is displayed as the plot PR1. According to this other embodiment, the user P can consider how the target space SP is used, etc. Note that the first history screen HG1 may be configured to be displayed when an administrator who manages the building H or the target space SP uses the terminal device 1.

[0223] In other embodiments, in the second area A2 of the app UI120, a second history screen HG2 may be displayed for each target space SP. FIG. 22 is a diagram showing an example of the app UI120 in another embodiment. The second history screen HG2 is a screen that displays a distribution diagram BD1 showing the distribution of temperature and humidity set in the past in the target space SP in the matrix diagram MD. The second history screen HG2 shown in FIG. 22 displays the plot PR1 in the same manner as the first history screen HG1, but the plot PR1 may not be displayed. In this other embodiment, the server device 5 manages the history of the set temperature and humidity for each target space SP, and the app UI120 displays the distribution diagram BD1 based on the history managed by the server device 5. According to this other embodiment, the user P can consider how the target space SP is used. Note that the second history screen HG2 may be configured to be displayed when an administrator who manages the building H or the target space SP uses the terminal device 1.

[0224] In another embodiment, in the matrix diagram MD of the setting screen SG, a distribution diagram BD2 showing the distribution of temperature and humidity set by the user P in the past may be displayed. FIG. 23 is a diagram showing an example of the matrix diagram MD displayed on the setting screen SG according to another embodiment. In the matrix diagram MD shown in FIG. 23, a plot PR2 showing the temperature and humidity set by the user P in the past is displayed, but the plot PR2 may not be displayed. Also, in the matrix diagram MD shown in FIG. 23, the target space recommended range RA1, the usage scene recommended range RA2, the first object OB1, the second object OB2, and the detection image G3 are not displayed, but these may be displayed together with the distribution diagram BD2, or these may be displayed so as to be switchable with the distribution diagram BD2. In this other embodiment, the server device 5 manages the history of the temperature and humidity set by the user P for each target space SP and the user P, and the app UI120 displays the distribution diagram BD2 based on the history managed by the server device 5. According to this other embodiment, the user P can easily grasp what kind of temperature and humidity he / she prefers.

[0225] In the above-described embodiment, the recommended usage scene range RA2 to be displayed can be switched by operating the selection object CO. In other embodiments, a configuration may be adopted in which the recommended usage scene range RA2 to be displayed is switched by an operation of selecting an arbitrary position on the matrix diagram MD. That is, in this other embodiment, when an arbitrary position is selected in the matrix diagram MD, the recommended usage scene range RA2 including the selected position is displayed, and the usage scene displayed by the selection object CO also changes to the corresponding usage scene. Further, in this other embodiment, with the display of the recommended usage scene range RA2, the display position of the second object OB2 is changed to the default position corresponding to the displayed recommended usage scene range RA2.

[0226] In the above-described embodiment, the target space recommended range RA1 is divided into four ranges, and one of the divided ranges corresponds to the recommended usage scene range RA2. In other embodiments, the number of ranges into which the target space recommended range RA1 is divided is not limited to four, and may be three or less or five or more. Further, the mode of dividing the target space recommended range RA1 is not limited to a grid pattern.

[0227] In the above-described embodiment, one of the divided ranges of the target space recommended range RA1 corresponds to the recommended usage scene range RA2. However, in other embodiments, instead of the target space recommended range RA1, the entire area of a wider matrix diagram MD may be divided, and one of the divided ranges may be configured to correspond to the recommended usage scene range RA2.

[0228] In the above-described embodiment, the recommended usage scene ranges RA2 do not overlap with each other, that is, the recommended usage scene ranges RA2 are adjacent to each other. However, the recommended usage scene ranges RA2 may overlap with each other.

[0229] In the above-described embodiments, four usage scenes of the target space SP, namely, "Relaxation", "Discussion", "Creative Work", and "Repetitive Work", were exemplified. However, the usage scenes of the target space SP are not limited to these, and other usage scenes may also be possible. For example, if the target space SP is an educational site, there may be usage scenes such as "a scene for self-study" and "a scene for an art class". Also, for example, if the target space SP is a medical site, there may be usage scenes such as "a scene for virus countermeasures" and "a scene for medical examinations".

[0230] In the above-described embodiments, when the humidifier 4 is not in the target space SP, the usage scene cannot be selected on the second setting screen SG2. However, for usage scenes that differ only in the temperature range of the usage scene recommended range RA2, a selectable configuration may be adopted. The usage scene recommended ranges RA21 and RA24 differ in the range of the first axis but not in the range of the second axis. Therefore, in this other embodiment, it may be possible to select between "Creative Work" and "Repetitive Work". Also, the usage scene recommended ranges RA22 and RA23 differ in the range of the first axis but not in the range of the second axis. Therefore, in this other embodiment, on the second setting screen SG2, it may be possible to select a usage scene from "Discussion" and "Relaxation".

[0231] In other embodiments, when the indoor unit 3 is not in the target space SP, the setting screen SG may be configured such that the usage scene cannot be selected. Also, in other embodiments, when the indoor unit 3 is not in the target space SP, the first setting object SO1 may not be displayed, or may be displayed in a manner indicating that temperature setting is impossible.

[0232] In the above-described embodiments, the case where the temperature increase object TO1 is an object displaying the symbol "+" has been exemplified. However, the type of symbol displayed by the temperature increase object TO1 is not limited to "+", and any symbol indicating that the temperature can be increased is sufficient. Note that this symbol may be a character, a number, a symbol, a logo, or the like. The content of other embodiments regarding this symbol can also be applied to each of the temperature decrease object TO2, the humidity increase object HO1, and the humidity decrease object HO2, and the symbols indicated by the temperature decrease object TO2, the humidity increase object HO1, and the humidity decrease object HO2 are not limited to the symbols shown in the above-described Embodiment 1.

[0233] In the above-described Embodiment 1, the target space recommended range RA1 is a different range according to the season. In other embodiments, instead of the season, the target space recommended range RA1 may be a different range according to the outdoor temperature. In the case of this other embodiment, the display unit 102 acquires the outdoor temperature by communicating with the server device 5 or the like, and varies the target space recommended range RA1 according to the acquired outdoor temperature. Note that, in the case of this other embodiment, since the target space recommended range RA1 varies according to the outdoor temperature, the above-described four usage scene recommended ranges RA2 also vary according to the outdoor temperature, but the relative positions of the usage scene recommended ranges RA2 do not change.

[0234] In other embodiments, the target space recommended range RA1 may be varied depending on whether the indoor unit 3 is performing a cooling operation or a heating operation. In the case of this other embodiment, the type of operation being performed by the indoor unit 3 is further recorded in the first status data D2. Then, the display unit 102 varies the target space recommended range RA1 depending on whether the operation recorded in the first status data D2 is a cooling operation or a heating operation. Note that, in the case of this other embodiment, since the target space recommended range RA1 varies depending on whether it is a cooling operation or a heating operation, the above-described four usage scene recommended ranges RA2 also vary depending on the type of operation, but the relative positions of the usage scene recommended ranges RA2 do not change.

[0235] In other embodiments, a user P with a predetermined attribute may be able to change the target space recommendation range RA1 in the app UI120. As an example of the user P with this predetermined attribute, an administrator who manages the building H can be cited. Also, in a configuration where the user P with a predetermined attribute can change the target space recommendation range RA1, except for the user P with this predetermined attribute, it may be possible to set it so that the target space recommendation range RA1 cannot be changed in the app UI120. Note that in the case of this other embodiment, since the target space recommendation range RA1 is different according to the change by the user P with a predetermined attribute, the above-described four usage scene recommendation ranges RA2 are also different according to this change, but the relative positions of the usage scene recommendation ranges RA2 do not change.

[0236] In other embodiments, when the first object OB1 is not displayed within the target space recommendation range RA1, the display unit 102 may notify thereof by information display.

[0237] In the above-described embodiment, the range of the first axis of the matrix diagram MD is set to the range of the temperature that can be set by the indoor unit 3, and the range of the second axis of the matrix diagram MD is set to the range of the humidity that can be set by the humidifier 4. In other embodiments, the range of the first axis of the matrix diagram MD may not be set to the range of the temperature that can be set by the indoor unit 3, and the range of the second axis of the matrix diagram MD may not be set to the range of the humidity that can be set by the humidifier 4. In the case of this other embodiment, when a temperature that cannot be set by the indoor unit 3 is set on the setting screen SG, the display unit 102 may give an error notification or may automatically change the set temperature to a temperature that can be set by the indoor unit 3. Also, in the case of this other embodiment, when a humidity that cannot be set by the humidifier 4 is set on the setting screen SG, the display unit 102 may give an error notification or may automatically change the set humidity to a humidity that can be set by the humidifier 4.

[0238] In the above-described Embodiment 1, the indoor unit 3 was exemplified as the "temperature control device". However, the "temperature control device" is not limited to the indoor unit 3, and any device capable of controlling the temperature of the target space SP may be used. For example, the "temperature control device" may be a heater, a ventilation device, or the like. Also, in the above-described Embodiment 1, the humidifier 4 was exemplified as the "humidity control device". However, the "humidity control device" is not limited to the humidifier 4, and any device capable of controlling the humidity of the target space SP may be used. For example, the "humidity control device" may be a ventilation device, a dehumidifier, a device that passes the inhaled air through a filter penetrated with an aqueous solution of hypochlorous acid and discharges the air containing hypochlorous acid, or the like.

[0239] In the above-described Embodiment 1, the case where the "temperature control device" and the "humidity control device" are different devices was exemplified. However, the "temperature control device" and the "humidity control device" may be configurations included in one device.

[0240] In the above-described Embodiment 1, when an arbitrary position is selected in the matrix diagram MD, without inquiring the user P, at least one of the temperature and humidity corresponding to the selected arbitrary position of the target space SP is controlled to start. In another embodiment, when an arbitrary position is selected in the matrix diagram MD, the user P is inquired on the app UI120 whether to start the control, and when the user P permits on the app UI120, the control may start so that the temperature and humidity of the target space SP become the temperature and humidity corresponding to the selected arbitrary position.

[0241] In the above-described Embodiment 1, the first axis is an axis extending in the short side direction of the app UI120, and the second axis is an axis extending in the long side direction of the app UI120. In another embodiment, the first axis may be an axis extending in the long side direction of the app UI120, and the second axis may be an axis extending in the short side direction of the app UI120.

[0242] In the above-described Embodiment 1, the terminal device 1 receives the records R1 and R2, and the control app 111 generates the content to be displayed by the app UI 120. In other embodiments, the server device 5 may generate the content to be displayed by the app UI 120, and the terminal device 1 may receive the data of the generated content from the server device 5 and display the app UI 120.

[0243] In the above-described Embodiment 1, the matrix diagram MD in which the first axis is set to the warm / cold feeling and the second axis is set to the dry / wet feeling is displayed. In other embodiments, at least one of the first axis and the second axis may be set to other sensations. For example, at least one of the first axis and the second axis may be set to a cleanliness feeling or a wind speed feeling. The cleanliness feeling is the feeling of the degree of cleanliness felt by a human. The wind speed feeling is the feeling of the strength of the wind felt by a human.

[0244] In the above-described Embodiment 1, the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 display the temperature range and the humidity range that can be air-conditioned as the matrix diagram MD, and further, in this matrix diagram MD, the positions corresponding to the temperature and the humidity detected by the sensor 2 are displayed. In other embodiments, based on the temperature and the humidity detected by the sensor 2, the sensitivities of the warm / cold feeling and the dry / wet feeling may be calculated, and the positions corresponding to the calculated sensitivities of the warm / cold feeling and the dry / wet feeling may be displayed in the matrix diagram MD.

[0245] In other embodiments, the function of the device control unit 503 may be realized by the terminal processor 100 by the control app 111. In the case of this other embodiment, the terminal device 1 can communicate with the indoor unit 3 and the humidifier 4 directly or indirectly on a one-to-one basis.

[0246] The terminal processor 100 and the server processor 500 may be constituted by a single processor or may be constituted by a plurality of processors. These processors may be hardware programmed to realize corresponding functional units. That is, these processors may be constituted by, for example, an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).

[0247] The configurations of the terminal device 1 and the server device 5 shown in FIG. 3 are examples, and the specific implementation forms are not particularly limited. That is, it is not necessarily required to install hardware corresponding to each part individually, and it is also possible to adopt a configuration in which one processor executes a program to realize the functions of each part. Also, in the above-described embodiments, part of the functions realized by software may be implemented as hardware, or part of the functions realized by hardware may be realized by software.

[0248] The step units of the operations shown in FIGS. 15-20 are divided according to the main processing contents for the ease of understanding of the operations, and the operations are not limited by the way of dividing the processing units and the names. Depending on the processing contents, it may be further divided into more step units. Also, one step unit may be further divided to include more processes. Also, the order of the steps may be appropriately changed within the scope not obstructing the gist of the present disclosure.

[0249] Note that the above-described embodiments are for exemplifying the technologies in the present disclosure, and various changes, replacements, additions, omissions, etc. can be made within the scope of the claims or their equivalents.
