[0087] The terminal device program according to the first embodiment is installed in the terminal device 80 via any recording medium or the communication network 5, and thereby substantially configures each unit of the terminal side control unit 86.

[0088] (Configuration - Terminal Device - Terminal Side Control Unit - Priority Unit) The priority unit 86a is a priority unit that prioritizes the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.

[0089] Here, "communication is established" means that a connection for transmitting and receiving wireless signals between the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80 has been successfully established, and wireless signals can be transmitted and received.

[0090] Furthermore, "giving priority to the second wireless communication" is a concept that includes, for example, performing only the second wireless communication without performing the first wireless communication, and performing the second wireless communication after a predetermined time has elapsed and then performing the first wireless communication. However, in the first embodiment, the description will be given assuming that only the second wireless communication is performed without performing the first wireless communication.

[0091] (Configuration - Terminal Device - Terminal Side Control Unit - First Processing Unit) The first processing unit 86b is a first processing means for performing processing (hereinafter referred to as "first processing") related to the opening and closing device 10 based on a wireless signal (hereinafter referred to as "first wireless signal") communicated via the first wireless communication.

[0092] (Configuration - Terminal Device - Terminal Side Control Unit - Second Processing Unit) The second processing unit 86c is a second processing means for performing processing (hereinafter referred to as "second processing") related to the opening and closing device 10 based on a wireless signal (hereinafter referred to as "second wireless signal") communicated via the second wireless communication.

[0093] Here, the method for setting the processing contents of the first process and the second process is arbitrary, but in embodiment 1, the processing contents of the first process and the processing contents of the second process are set so as not to be completely identical.

[0094] Note that "not completely matching" means, for example, that only part of the processing content of the first processing does not match the processing content of the second processing, or that all of the processing content of the first processing does not match the processing content of the second processing.

[0095] Specifically, the first process includes a normal opening / closing process but does not include a forced opening / closing process, whereas the second process includes both a normal opening / closing process and a forced opening / closing process.

[0096] By setting in this way, it is possible to set the processing content according to the first processing and the processing content according to the second processing, and it is possible to execute the first processing and the second processing according to the situation.

[0097] The reason why the first process does not include the forced opening / closing process and the second process includes the forced opening / closing process is as follows.

[0098] That is, as described above, the first wireless communication uses long-distance wireless communication, and therefore it is conceivable that the first wireless communication will be performed in a state where the user M carrying the terminal device 80 is not located in the vicinity of the opening / closing device 10. For this reason, if the user M performs forced opening / closing control using the terminal device 80 without looking at the opening / closing body 40, there is a risk that safety during the forced opening / closing control cannot be ensured.

[0099] On the other hand, as described above, the second wireless communication uses short-range wireless communication, and therefore the second wireless communication is performed while the user M carrying the terminal device 80 is located in the vicinity of the opening / closing device 10. This allows the user M to perform forced opening / closing control using the terminal device 80 while looking at the opening / closing body 40, making it easier to ensure safety during forced opening / closing control.

[0100] Taking these factors into consideration, and from the viewpoint of ensuring safety during forced opening and closing control, in the first embodiment, the first process does not include forced opening and closing processing, and the second process includes forced opening and closing processing.

[0101] Here, the "normal opening / closing process" refers to a process of moving the opening / closing body 40 of the opening / closing device 10 to open or close based on normal operation information.

[0102] Furthermore, "normal operation information" refers to an operation that controls the opening / closing body 40 to move open or closed when no abnormality has occurred in the opening / closing device 10 or / and the building, but prevents the opening / closing body 40 from moving open or closed when an abnormality has occurred in the opening / closing device 10 or / and the building, and is information that indicates an operation that continues the opening / closing movement of the opening / closing body 40 (so-called "self-holding operation") even when acceptance of input from the open button B11 or close button B12 described below has stopped.

[0103] Furthermore, "an abnormality has occurred in the opening / closing device 10 and / or the building" means a state in which an abnormality has been detected by various sensors installed in the opening / closing device 10 and / or the building, and corresponds to, for example, a state in which an abnormality has occurred in the obstacle detection unit 66 of the opening / closing device 10, a state in which a fire has been detected by a fire detection sensor (not shown) installed in the building, etc.

[0104] Furthermore, "forced opening / closing processing" refers to processing forcibly moving the opening / closing body 40 to a closed position or / and an open position based on forced operation information, and in embodiment 1, it is described as processing forcibly moving the opening / closing body 40 to a closed position.

[0105] Furthermore, "forced operation information" is an operation that moves the opening / closing body 40 open or closed regardless of whether the above-mentioned abnormality occurs or not, and is information that indicates an operation (so-called "push-through operation") that moves the opening / closing body 40 open or closed only while input such as the close button B12 described below is being accepted.

[0106] The processing executed by the opening / closing side control unit 75 will be described in detail later.

[0107] (Configuration - Terminal Device - Terminal Side Storage Unit) The terminal side storage unit 87 is a terminal side storage means for recording programs and various data required for the operation of the terminal device 80.

[0108] (control processing) Next, the control processing executed by the opening / closing side control unit 75 of the opening / closing device 10 and the terminal side control unit 86 of the terminal device 80 will be described.

[0109] In the following description, steps will be abbreviated as "S" in the description of each process shown in FIG.

[0110] The control process is a process for controlling the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80. The timing for executing this control process is arbitrary, but in the first embodiment, it will be described as being started after the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80 are powered on, and after a terminal application is started and logged in on the terminal device 80.

[0111] Here, the "terminal application" refers to an application for executing control processing.

[0112] (Control processing - premise) Next, the premise of the control process in the first embodiment is as follows.

[0113] That is, the description will be given assuming that the opening / closing body 40 of the opening / closing device 10 installed in the building is in a fully open state.

[0114] In addition, the opening / closing device 10 will be described as having already been executed with the necessary processing (e.g., registration processing for registering terminal device identification information that uniquely identifies the terminal device 80 in the opening / closing device 10, upper and lower limit setting processing for setting the fully open position and the fully closed position by opening and closing movement of the opening / closing body 40, etc.) required to control the opening / closing device 10 using the terminal device 80.

[0115] The following description will be given assuming that a terminal application has already been installed on the terminal device 80.

[0116] (Control process - Control process details) Next, the control process will be described in detail.

[0117] After the control process is started, as shown in FIG. 4, in SA1, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 determines whether or not only the first wireless communication is established, using a known communication processing method.

[0118] In addition, the location of user M carrying terminal device 80 when only the first wireless communication is established is arbitrary, but for example, as shown in Figure 1(a), it may be a location where second wireless communication cannot be performed and where user M is far away from opening and closing device 10.

[0119] Then, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 transitions to SA2 if it is determined that only the first wireless communication is established (SA1, Yes), and transitions to SA4 if it is determined that only the first wireless communication is not established (SA1, No).

[0120] In SA2, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 executes the first process (specifically, the normal opening / closing process).

[0121] The content of this first process is arbitrary, but in the first embodiment, it is executed as follows.

[0122] That is, first, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 generates a display area S1 (hereinafter referred to as the "opening / closing operation display area S1") on the screen of the terminal side output unit 84, as shown in Figure 5, and displays an open button B11, a close button B12, and a stop button B13 in the generated opening / closing operation display area S1.

[0123] Of these, the open button B11 is an opening operation means that enables an opening operation to move the opening / closing body 40 of the opening / closing device 10 in an open direction. The close button B12 is a closing operation means that enables a closing operation to move the opening / closing body 40 in a closed direction. The stop button B13 is a stopping operation means that enables a stopping operation to stop the opening / closing movement of the opening / closing body 40.

[0124] Next, when any one of the above-displayed open button B11, close button B12, and stop button B13 is selected via the terminal side operation unit 83, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 transmits a first wireless signal including normal operation information corresponding to the selected button to the opening and closing device 10 via the first terminal side wireless communication unit 81.

[0125] Then, the opening / closing side control unit 75 of the opening / closing device 10 receives the above-mentioned first wireless signal via the first opening / closing side wireless communication unit 72, and performs opening / closing control of the opening / closing body 40 (hereinafter referred to as "normal opening / closing control") based on the normal operation information contained in the received first wireless signal.

[0126] The contents of this normal opening and closing control are arbitrary, but in the first embodiment, they are as follows.

[0127] That is, when the received normal operation information is normal operation information corresponding to the opening operation, the opening / closing side control section 75 of the opening / closing device 10 moves the opening / closing body 40 to the opening position by a self-holding operation.

[0128] Furthermore, when the received normal operation information is normal operation information corresponding to the closing operation, the opening / closing side control section 75 of the opening / closing device 10 moves the opening / closing body 40 to the closing direction by a self-holding operation.

[0129] Furthermore, when the received normal operation information is normal operation information corresponding to the stop operation, the opening / closing side control section 75 of the opening / closing device 10 stops the opening movement or closing movement of the opening / closing body 40.

[0130] Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 performs the following processing in addition to the normal opening and closing control.

[0131] Specifically, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 determines whether or not a first wireless signal including abnormality occurrence information is received (acquired) from the opening / closing device 10 (or an external device (for example, a management device, a repeater, or various sensors installed in the building)) via the first communication unit while normal opening / closing control is being performed.

[0132] Here, if it is determined that the first wireless signal including the abnormality occurrence information has not been received, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 continues the normal opening / closing control.

[0133] On the other hand, if it is determined that the first wireless signal containing the abnormality occurrence information has been received, after the normal opening / closing control is interrupted, as shown in Figure 6, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 outputs the abnormality occurrence information contained in the first wireless signal to the terminal side output unit 84.

[0134] Thereafter, when a predetermined operation (for example, a touch operation on the terminal side output unit 84) is accepted via the terminal side operation unit 83, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 re-displays the opening / closing operation display area S1 of FIG. 5, and performs normal opening / closing control if the first wireless signal including the abnormality occurrence information is not received.

[0135] However, if the first wireless signal including the abnormality occurrence information is received even after the opening / closing operation display area S1 of FIG. 5 is redisplayed, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 causes the terminal side output unit 84 to output the abnormality occurrence information of FIG. 6 again, and continues the output until the above-mentioned specified operation is accepted, thereby preventing normal opening / closing control from being performed.

[0136] The "abnormality occurrence information" is information indicating that an abnormality has occurred in the opening and closing device 10 and / or the building and / or the details thereof, and is also cause information indicating the cause of the forced opening and closing process.

[0137] Furthermore, the method for outputting the abnormality occurrence information is arbitrary, but in embodiment 1, as shown in FIG. 6, a display area S2 (hereinafter referred to as the "abnormality display area S2") is generated on the screen of the terminal side output unit 84, and abnormality occurrence information (for example, text information such as "An error has occurred in the obstacle detection unit. There may be dirt in the obstacle detection unit") is displayed in the generated abnormality display area S2.

[0138] By such processing, abnormality occurrence information can be presented to the user M of the terminal device 80, and measures can be taken to deal with the abnormality occurring in the opening and closing device 10 and / or the building.

[0139] However, without being limited to this, for example, in addition to (or instead of) displaying the abnormality occurrence information, the abnormality occurrence information may be output as voice by the terminal-side output unit 84. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 6, in addition to the abnormality occurrence information, response method information indicating a response method related to the abnormality occurrence information (for example, text information such as "Wipe off any dirt from the obstacle detection unit") may also be displayed.

[0140] Returning to FIG. 4, in SA3, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 determines whether or not the timing to end the first processing in SA2 (hereinafter referred to as "first end timing") has arrived.

[0141] The method for determining whether this first termination timing has arrived is arbitrary, but in embodiment 1, the determination is made based on whether input of a predetermined operation (for example, an operation to terminate (log out) a terminal application) has been accepted via the terminal side operation unit 83, or whether only the first wireless communication has been established.

[0142] Note that "only the first wireless communication is no longer established" refers to, for example, only the second wireless communication being established, the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication being established, and the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication not being established.

[0143] Here, if the input of the predetermined operation is accepted or if only the first wireless communication is no longer established, it is determined that the first end timing has arrived. On the other hand, if the input of the predetermined operation is not accepted or if only the first wireless communication is established, it is determined that the first end timing has not arrived.

[0144] Then, if the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 determines that the first end timing has arrived (SA3, Yes), it proceeds to SA1. On the other hand, if the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 determines that the first end timing has not arrived (SA3, No), it proceeds to SA2 and repeats the processes of SA2 and SA3 until it is determined in SA3 that the first end timing has arrived.

[0145] In SA4, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 uses a known communication processing method to determine whether or not only the second wireless communication has been established.

[0146] The location of the user M carrying the terminal device 80 when only the second wireless communication is established is arbitrary, but for example, as shown in Figure 1(b), when the first wireless communication cannot be performed due to a communication failure in the communication network 5, the user M may be located near the opening and closing device 10.

[0147] Then, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 transitions to SA5 if it determines that only the second wireless communication is established (SA4, Yes), and transitions to SA7 if it determines that only the second wireless communication is not established (SA4, No).

[0148] In SA5, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 executes the second process (specifically, the normal opening / closing process and the forced opening / closing process).

[0149] The second process may have any content, but in the first embodiment, it is executed as follows.

[0150] That is, first, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 generates an opening / closing operation display area S1 on the screen of the terminal side output unit 84, as shown in Figure 5, and displays an open button B11, a close button B12, and a stop button B13 in the generated opening / closing operation display area S1.

[0151] Next, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 determines whether a second wireless signal including abnormality occurrence information has been received (acquired) from the opening and closing device 10 (or an external device (for example, a management device, a repeater, or various sensors installed in the building)) via the second communication unit.

[0152] Here, if it is determined that the second wireless signal including the abnormality occurrence information has not been received, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 executes the normal opening / closing process.

[0153] The content of this normal opening / closing process is arbitrary, but in embodiment 1, when any one of the above-displayed open button B11, close button B12, and stop button B13 is selected via the terminal side operation unit 83, the first processing unit 86b of the terminal device 80 transmits a second wireless signal including normal operation information corresponding to the selected button to the opening / closing device 10 via the second terminal side wireless communication unit 82.

[0154] Then, the opening / closing side control unit 75 of the opening / closing device 10 receives a second wireless signal including the above-mentioned normal operation information via the second opening / closing side wireless communication unit 73, and performs the above-mentioned normal opening / closing control based on the normal operation information included in the received second wireless signal.

[0155] On the other hand, if it is determined that the second wireless signal containing the above-mentioned abnormality occurrence information has been received, as shown in Figure 6, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 outputs the abnormality occurrence information contained in the second wireless signal to the terminal side output unit 84 before executing the forced opening / closing process, and then when a predetermined operation (for example, a touch operation on the terminal side output unit 84) is accepted via the terminal side operation unit 83, the forced opening / closing process is executed.

[0156] For example, even when the second wireless signal including the abnormality occurrence information is received during normal opening and closing control, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 may output the abnormality occurrence information to the terminal-side output unit 84 and then execute the forced opening and closing process. In this case, the opening and closing-side control unit 75 of the opening and closing device 10 stops the opening and closing movement of the opening and closing body 40 at the timing when the opening and closing device 10 transmits the second wireless signal to the terminal device 80.

[0157] This allows the abnormality occurrence information to be presented to the user M of the terminal device 80 before the forced opening and closing process, and allows the user M of the terminal device 80 to perform the forced opening and closing process without feeling uncomfortable.

[0158] Furthermore, the content of the forced open / close process is arbitrary, but in the first embodiment, it is executed as follows.

[0159] That is, first, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 generates a display area S3 (hereinafter referred to as the "forced processing display area S3") on the screen of the terminal side output unit 84, as shown in Figure 7, and displays an execute button B21 and a cancel button B22 in the generated forced processing display area S3.

[0160] Of these, the execute button B21 is a forcing operation means that enables an operation (hereinafter referred to as a "forcing operation") to forcibly open or close the opening / closing body 40 of the opening / closing device 10. The cancel button B22 is a cancel operation means that cancels the forcing operation.

[0161] Here, when the displayed cancel button B22 is selected via the terminal side operation unit 83, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 displays the opening / closing operation display area S1 instead of the forced processing display area S3 without transmitting a second wireless signal including forced operation information, and then executes the normal opening / closing processing (alternatively, the processing of SA5 may be terminated without transmitting the second wireless signal).

[0162] On the other hand, when the displayed execute button B21 is selected via the terminal-side operation unit 83, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 displays the opening / closing operation display area S1 instead of the forced process display area S3. Subsequently, only when the close button B12 displayed in the opening / closing operation display area S1 is selected via the terminal-side operation unit 83 (or when any one of the open button B11, close button B12, and stop button B13 displayed in the opening / closing operation display area S1 is selected), the second processing unit 86c transmits a second wireless signal including forced operation information to the opening / closing device 10 via the second terminal-side wireless communication unit 82.

[0163] Next, the opening / closing side control unit 75 of the opening / closing device 10 receives the second wireless signal via the second opening / closing side wireless communication unit 73, and performs opening / closing control of the opening / closing body 40 (hereinafter referred to as "forced opening / closing control") based on the forced operation information contained in the received second wireless signal.

[0164] The content of this forced opening / closing control is arbitrary, but in embodiment 1, the opening / closing side control unit 75 of the opening / closing device 10 moves the opening / closing body 40 to the closed position by at least one push-through operation, and then ends the forced opening / closing control when the closing movement of the opening / closing body 40 stops as the closing side end of the opening / closing body 40 reaches the fully closed position (or half-open position).

[0165] Then, after the forced opening / closing control is completed, if the second wireless signal including the abnormality occurrence information is not received, the opening / closing-side control unit 75 of the opening device 10 executes the normal opening / closing process again.

[0166] However, if the second wireless signal including the abnormality occurrence information is received even after the forced opening / closing control has ended, the opening / closing side control unit 75 of the opening / closing device 10 will output the abnormality occurrence information of Figure 6 again to the terminal side output unit 84, and then, when a specified operation is accepted via the terminal side operation unit 83, will execute the forced opening / closing process again.

[0167] Returning to FIG. 4, in SA6, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 determines whether or not the timing to end the second processing in SA5 (hereinafter referred to as "second end timing") has arrived.

[0168] The method for determining whether this second termination timing has arrived is arbitrary, but in embodiment 1, the determination is made based on whether input of a specified operation has been accepted via the terminal side operation unit 83, or whether only the second wireless communication has been established.

[0169] Note that "only the second wireless communication is no longer established" refers to, for example, only the first wireless communication being established, the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication being established, and the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication not being established.

[0170] Here, if the input of the predetermined operation is accepted or if only the second wireless communication is no longer established, it is determined that the second end timing has arrived. On the other hand, if the input of the predetermined operation is not accepted or if only the second wireless communication is established, it is determined that the second end timing has not arrived.

[0171] Then, if the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 determines that the second end timing has arrived (SA6, Yes), it proceeds to SA1. On the other hand, if the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 determines that the second end timing has not arrived (SA6, No), it proceeds to SA5, and repeats the processes of SA5 and SA6 until it is determined in SA6 that the second end timing has arrived.

[0172] In SA7, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 determines whether the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established or not, using a known communication processing method.

[0173] In addition, the location of the user M who possesses the terminal device 80 when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established is arbitrary, but for example, it is a location where the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication can be performed, such as a location where the user M is near the opening and closing device 10.

[0174] Then, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 transitions to SA8 if it determines that the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established (SA7, Yes), and transitions to SA1 if it determines that the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are not established (SA7, No).

[0175] In SA8, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 prioritizes the second wireless communication.

[0176] Specifically, the priority unit 86a of the terminal device 80 performs only the second wireless communication without performing the first wireless communication in the processes of SA9 and SA10 described below.

[0177] In SA9, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 executes the second process (specifically, the normal opening / closing process and the forced opening / closing process) in substantially the same manner as the process in SA5.

[0178] In SA10, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 determines whether or not the timing to end the second processing in SA9 (hereinafter referred to as "third end timing") has arrived.

[0179] The method for determining whether this third end timing has arrived is arbitrary, but in embodiment 1, the determination is made based on whether input of a specified operation has been accepted via the terminal side operation unit 83, or whether the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication have become disconnected.

[0180] Note that "the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are no longer established" means, for example, that only the first wireless communication is established, that only the second wireless communication is established, or that the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are not established.

[0181] Here, if the input of the predetermined operation is accepted or if the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are no longer established, it is determined that the third end timing has arrived. On the other hand, if the input of the predetermined operation is not accepted or if the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, it is determined that the third end timing has not arrived.

[0182] Then, when it is determined that the third end timing has arrived (SA10, Yes), the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 proceeds to SA1, and thereafter repeats the processes from SA1 to SA10 in the same manner.

[0183] On the other hand, if the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 determines that the third end timing has not arrived (SA10, No), it proceeds to SA9 and repeats the processing of SA9 and SA10 until it determines in SA10 that the third end timing has arrived.

[0184] By the above-described control processing, when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, wireless communication between the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80 can be performed quickly and accurately compared to when the first wireless communication is given priority, thereby improving the usability of the control system 1 and the terminal device 80.

[0185] (Effects of the First Embodiment) Thus, according to embodiment 1, the control system 1 includes a first terminal side wireless communication unit 81 for performing the first wireless communication, a second terminal side wireless communication unit 82 for performing the second wireless communication, and a priority unit 86a that prioritizes the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established. Therefore, when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, wireless communication between the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80 can be performed more quickly and accurately than when the first wireless communication is prioritized, thereby improving the usability of the control system 1.

[0186] In addition, the device is equipped with a first processing unit 86b for performing a first processing based on a first wireless signal, and a second processing unit 86c for performing a second processing based on a second wireless signal, and since the processing contents of the first processing and the processing contents of the second processing are not completely identical, it is possible to set the processing contents according to the first processing and the processing contents according to the second processing, and it is possible to execute the first processing and the second processing according to the situation.

[0187] Furthermore, since the first process does not include a forced opening / closing process and the second process includes a forced opening / closing process, the forced opening / closing process can be executed safely, making it easier to ensure safety when using the opening / closing device 10.

[0188] Furthermore, the second processing unit 86c acquires abnormality occurrence information before executing the forced opening / closing process and outputs the acquired abnormality occurrence information to the terminal side output unit 84 of the terminal device 80, so that the abnormality occurrence information can be presented to the user M of the terminal device 80 before the forced opening / closing process, and the user M of the terminal device 80 can execute the forced opening / closing process without feeling uncomfortable.

[0189] Furthermore, the terminal device 80 is equipped with a first terminal side wireless communication unit 81 for performing the first wireless communication, a second terminal side wireless communication unit 82 for performing the second wireless communication, and a priority unit 86a that prioritizes the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established. Therefore, when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, wireless communication between the opening / closing device 10 and the terminal device 80 can be performed more quickly and accurately than when the first wireless communication is prioritized, thereby improving the usability of the terminal device 80.

[0190] Second Embodiment Next, a control system according to a second embodiment will be described. This second embodiment is a configuration that includes a priority section of a switching device. However, the configuration of this second embodiment is substantially the same as the configuration of the first embodiment, except where otherwise specified, and the configuration that is substantially the same as the configuration of the first embodiment will be assigned the same symbols and / or names as used in the first embodiment as necessary, and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0191] (composition) First, the configuration of the control system according to the second embodiment will be described.

[0192] The control system 1 includes an opening and closing device 10 and a terminal device 80, similar to the control system 1 according to the first embodiment.

[0193] (Configuration - Switchgear) First, the configuration of the opening and closing device 10 will be described.

[0194] The opening and closing device 10 is configured in almost the same manner as the opening and closing device 10 according to embodiment 1. However, the details of the configuration of the opening and closing side control section 75 of the opening and closing control unit 70 are modified as described below.

[0195] (Configuration - Switching device - Opening and closing side control section of opening and closing control unit) As shown in FIG. 8, the opening / closing side control section 75 of the opening / closing control unit 70 conceptually includes a priority section 75a, a first processing section 75b, and a second processing section 75c.

[0196] The switching device program according to the second embodiment is installed in the switching device 10 via any recording medium or the communication network 5, and thereby substantially configures each part of the switching side control unit 75.

[0197] (Configuration - Switching device - Switching control unit opening / closing side control section - Priority section) The priority unit 75a is a priority unit that prioritizes the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.

[0198] (Configuration - Switching device - Switching control unit on the switching side - First processing unit) The first processing unit 75b is a first processing means for performing a first process based on the first wireless signal.

[0199] (Configuration - Switching device - Switching control unit opening / closing side control section - Second processing section) The second processing unit 75c is a second processing means for performing a second process based on the second wireless signal.

[0200] The processing executed by the opening / closing side control unit 75 will be described in detail later.

[0201] (Configuration - Terminal Device) Next, the configuration of the terminal device 80 will be described.

[0202] The terminal device 80 is configured in almost the same manner as the terminal device 80 according to embodiment 1. However, as shown in Fig. 9, the configuration of the terminal-side control unit 86 does not include the priority unit 86a, the first processing unit 86b, and the second processing unit 86c according to embodiment 1.

[0203] The processing executed by the terminal-side control unit 86 will be described in detail later.

[0204] (control processing) Next, the control processing executed by the opening / closing side control unit 75 of the opening / closing device 10 and the terminal side control unit 86 of the terminal device 80 will be described.

[0205] After the control process is started, as shown in FIG. 10, the priority unit 75a of the opening and closing device 10 in SB1 determines whether or not only the first wireless communication has been established by using a known communication processing method.

[0206] Then, the priority section 75a of the opening / closing device 10 transitions to SB2 if it is determined that only the first wireless communication is established (SB1, Yes), and transitions to SB4 if it is determined that only the first wireless communication is not established (SB1, No).

[0207] In SB2, the first processing unit 75b of the switching device 10 executes the first processing (specifically, the normal switching processing).

[0208] The content of this first process is arbitrary, but in the first embodiment, it is executed as follows.

[0209] That is, first, the terminal side control unit 86 of the terminal device 80 causes a first wireless signal including normal operation information to be transmitted to the opening / closing device 10 via the first terminal side wireless communication unit 81 by a predetermined method (for example, a method of transmitting a first wireless signal including normal operation information according to embodiment 1), and then the first processing unit 75b of the opening / closing device 10 determines whether the first wireless signal has been received via the first opening / closing side wireless communication unit 72.

[0210] Then, when the first wireless signal is received, the first processing unit 75b of the opening and closing device 10 performs the normal opening and closing control described above based on the normal operation information included in the first wireless signal.

[0211] In SB3, the first processing unit 75b of the switching device 10 determines whether or not the first end timing for ending the first processing in SB2 has arrived.

[0212] The method for determining whether this first end timing has arrived is arbitrary, but in embodiment 2, the determination is made based on whether a predetermined time (e.g., 30 minutes) has elapsed since the processing of SB1 ended, or whether only the first wireless communication has become unestablished.

[0213] Then, when it is determined that the first end timing has arrived (SB3, Yes), the first processing unit 75b of the opening and closing device 10 proceeds to SB1. On the other hand, if the first processing unit 75b of the opening and closing device 10 determines that the first end timing has not arrived (SB3, No), it proceeds to SB2 and repeats the processing of SB2 and SB3 until it determines in SB3 that the first end timing has arrived.

[0214] In SB4, the priority unit 75a of the opening and closing device 10 determines whether or not only the second wireless communication has been established, using a known communication processing method.

[0215] Then, the priority unit 75a of the opening / closing device 10 transitions to SB5 if it determines that only the second wireless communication is established (SB4, Yes), and transitions to SB7 if it determines that only the second wireless communication is not established (SB4, No).

[0216] In SB5, the second processing unit 75c of the opening and closing device 10 executes the second processing (specifically, the normal opening and closing processing and the forced opening and closing processing).

[0217] The second process may have any content, but in the second embodiment, it is executed as follows.

[0218] That is, first, the terminal side control unit 86 of the terminal device 80 causes a second wireless signal including normal operation information or forced operation information to be transmitted to the opening / closing device 10 via the second terminal side wireless communication unit 82 by a predetermined method (for example, a method of transmitting a second wireless signal including normal operation information or forced operation information according to embodiment 1), and then the second processing unit 75c of the opening / closing device 10 determines whether the second wireless signal has been received via the second opening / closing side wireless communication unit 73.

[0219] For example, when the terminal-side control unit 86 of the terminal device 80 transmits a second wireless signal including forced operation information to the opening / closing device 10, the second processing unit 75c of the opening / closing device 10 may transmit a second wireless signal (for example, a second wireless signal including abnormality occurrence information) that serves as a trigger for transmitting the second wireless signal before transmitting the second wireless signal.

[0220] By transmitting such a second wireless signal including abnormality occurrence information, for example, in substantially the same manner as the method of transmitting a second wireless signal including forced operation information according to embodiment 1, the terminal side control unit 86 of the terminal device 80, after receiving the second wireless signal, outputs the abnormality occurrence information to the terminal side output unit 84 as shown in FIG. 6, and also outputs the execute button B21 and the cancel button B22 to the terminal side output unit 84 as shown in FIG. 7, and then when the execute button B21 is selected via the terminal side operation unit 83, the second wireless signal including the forced operation information can be transmitted.

[0221] Here, when the second processing unit 75c of the opening / closing device 10 receives the second wireless signal including the normal operation information, the second processing unit 75c performs the normal opening / closing control described above based on the normal operation information included in the second wireless signal.

[0222] Furthermore, when the second processing unit 75c of the opening and closing device 10 receives the second wireless signal including the forced operation information, the second processing unit 75c performs the above-described forced opening and closing control based on the forced operation information included in the second wireless signal.

[0223] In SB6, the second processing unit 75c of the switching device 10 determines whether or not the second end timing for ending the second processing in SB5 has arrived.

[0224] The method for determining whether this second end timing has arrived is arbitrary, but in embodiment 2, the determination is made based on whether a predetermined time (e.g., 30 minutes) has elapsed since the processing of SB4 ended, or whether only the second wireless communication has become unestablished.

[0225] Then, if the second processing unit 75c of the opening and closing device 10 determines that the second end timing has arrived (SB6, Yes), it proceeds to SB1. On the other hand, if the second processing unit 75c of the opening and closing device 10 determines that the second end timing has not arrived (SB6, No), it proceeds to SB5, and repeats the processes of SB5 and SB6 until it determines in SB6 that the second end timing has arrived.

[0226] In SB7, the priority unit 75a of the opening and closing device 10 determines whether the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established or not, using a known communication processing method.

[0227] Then, the priority section 75a of the opening / closing device 10 transitions to SB8 if it determines that the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established (SB7, Yes), and transitions to SB1 if it determines that the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are not established (SB7, No).

[0228] In SB8, the priority unit 75a of the opening and closing device 10 prioritizes the second wireless communication.

[0229] Specifically, the priority unit 75a of the opening and closing device 10 performs only the second wireless communication without performing the first wireless communication in the processes of SB9 and SB10 described below.

[0230] In SB9, the priority unit 75a of the opening / closing device 10 executes the second process (specifically, the normal opening / closing process and the forced opening / closing process) in substantially the same manner as the process in SB5.

[0231] In SB10, the second processing unit 75c of the switching device 10 determines whether or not the third end timing for ending the second processing of SB9 has arrived.

[0232] The method for determining whether this third end timing has arrived is arbitrary, but in embodiment 2, the determination is made based on whether a predetermined time (e.g., 30 minutes) has elapsed since the processing of SB7 ended, or whether the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are no longer established.

[0233] Then, when it is determined that the third end timing has arrived (SB10, Yes), the second processing unit 75c of the opening and closing device 10 proceeds to SB1, and thereafter similarly repeats the processes from SB1 to SB10.

[0234] On the other hand, if the second processing unit 75c of the opening and closing device 10 determines that the third end timing has not arrived (SB10, No), it proceeds to SB9 and repeats the processing of SB9 and SB10 in the same manner thereafter until it determines in SB10 that the third end timing has arrived.

[0235] By the control processing described above, similar to the control processing according to embodiment 1, when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, wireless communication between the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80 can be performed quickly and accurately compared to when the first wireless communication is given priority, thereby improving the usability of the control system 1 and the opening and closing device 10.

[0236] (Effects of the second embodiment) Thus, according to embodiment 2, the opening / closing device 10 is equipped with a first opening / closing side wireless communication unit 72 for performing the first wireless communication, a second opening / closing side wireless communication unit 73 for performing the second wireless communication, and a priority unit 75a that prioritizes the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.Therefore, when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, wireless communication between the opening / closing device 10 and the terminal device 80 can be performed more quickly and accurately than when the first wireless communication is prioritized, thereby improving the usability of the opening / closing device 10.

[0237] [III] Modifications to the embodiment Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the specific configurations and means of the present invention can be modified and improved as desired within the scope of the technical ideas of the inventions set forth in the claims. Such modifications will be described below.

[0238] (About the problem to be solved and the effects of the invention) First, the problems that the invention aims to solve and the effects of the invention are not limited to those described above, and the present invention may solve problems that are not described above or achieve effects that are not described above, or may solve only some of the problems that are described or achieve only some of the effects that are described.

[0239] (Regarding decentralization and integration) Furthermore, the electrical components described above are functional concepts and do not necessarily have to be physically configured as shown in the drawings. In other words, the specific form of distribution or integration of each part is not limited to that shown in the drawings, and all or part of them can be functionally or physically distributed or integrated in any unit depending on various loads, usage conditions, etc. Furthermore, the term "device" in this application is not limited to a single device, but includes a device configured from multiple devices.

[0240] For example, the opening / closing control unit 70 may be configured as a distributed system across multiple devices that are configured to be able to communicate with each other, with an opening / closing side control unit 75 being provided in some of these devices and an opening / closing side memory unit 76 being provided in another part of these devices.

[0241] (shape, numbers, structure, time series) The components illustrated in the embodiments and drawings may be modified and improved as desired within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention in terms of shape, numerical value, or the structure or chronological relationship of multiple components.

[0242] (Regarding control systems) In the above-described second embodiment, the control system 1 has been described as including the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80, but this is not limiting, and for example, the control system 1 may include the opening and closing device 10 and a plurality of terminal devices 80 (this is also approximately the same for the control system 1 according to the first embodiment). Alternatively, the control system 1 may include a plurality of opening and closing devices 10 and a plurality of terminal devices 80 (this is also approximately the same for the control system 1 according to the first embodiment).

[0243] For example, when the control system 1 includes an opening / closing device 10 and a plurality of terminal devices 80, if only a first wireless communication is established between some of the plurality of terminal devices 80 and the opening / closing device 10, and a second wireless communication is established between some of the other terminal devices 80 and the opening / closing device 10, the priority section 75a of the opening / closing device 10 may prioritize the second wireless communication established between the other some of the terminal devices 80 and the opening / closing device 10 (this also applies to the control system 1 according to embodiment 1).

[0244] The reason for prioritizing the second wireless communication is as follows. That is, there is a high possibility that the user M of the other terminal devices 80 is performing the second wireless communication near the opening / closing device 10. For this reason, for example, when the first wireless communication between the other terminal devices 80 and the opening / closing device 10 and the second wireless communication between the other terminal devices 80 and the opening / closing device 10 are performed, if the first process (normal opening / closing process) is executed, the opening / closing body 40 may be opened or closed unexpectedly by the user M of the other terminal devices 80, which may make it difficult to ensure the safety of the user M, etc. As an example, if the user M tries to leave the garage and sets the opening / closing body 40 to a fully open state by the second process, but then sets the opening / closing body 40 to a half-open state (or a fully closed state) by the first process, there is a risk of a collision between the vehicle and the opening / closing body 40. Therefore, in order to avoid such a problem, the second wireless communication is prioritized, thereby ensuring safety during use of the opening / closing device 10.

[0245] Furthermore, the method for determining that only the first wireless communication has been established is arbitrary, but for example, the priority unit 75a of the opening / closing device 10 may acquire log information indicating that only the first wireless communication has been established between the opening / closing device 10 and multiple terminal devices 80 stored in the opening / closing side memory unit 76, and make a determination based on the acquired log information.

[0246] Furthermore, the method for determining whether the second wireless communication has been established is arbitrary, but for example, the priority unit 75a of the opening / closing device 10 may acquire log information indicating that the second wireless communication has been established between the opening / closing device 10 and multiple terminal devices 80 stored in the opening / closing device 10, and make a determination based on the acquired log information.

[0247] By such processing, wireless communication between the opening and closing device 10 and the other terminal devices 80 can be performed quickly and accurately, and the safety of the user M of the other terminal devices 80 can be ensured during the communication, further improving the usability of the control system 1.

[0248] (Opening and closing control system) In the first and second embodiments, the opening / closing control system 60 is described as including the obstacle detection unit 66, but this is not limiting, and for example, the obstacle detection unit 66 may be omitted.

[0249] (Regarding the priority section) In the above embodiments 1 and 2, it has been explained that the priority section is provided in only one of the opening and closing device 10 or the terminal device 80, but this is not limited to this, and for example, the priority section may be provided in each of the opening and closing device 10 and the terminal device 80.

[0250] (Regarding the first and second processes) In the above-described first and second embodiments, the process content of the first process and the process content of the second process are set so as not to completely match, but this is not limiting. For example, the process content of the first process and the process content of the second process may be set so as to completely match.

[0251] In this case, for example, each of the first process and the second process may include a normal opening / closing process and a forced opening / closing process.

[0252] In addition, in the above-mentioned first and second embodiments, it has been described that the first process includes the normal opening / closing process but does not include the forced opening / closing process, and the second process includes the normal opening / closing process and the forced opening / closing process, but this is not limited to this. For example, the first process may include the normal opening / closing process and the registration process, but the second process may not include the forced opening / closing process and the upper / lower limit setting process, and the second process may include the normal opening / closing process, the forced opening / closing process, the registration process, and the upper / lower limit setting process.

[0253] (Regarding control processing) In the above-described first embodiment, it has been described that, at SA5, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 causes the terminal-side output unit 84 to output the abnormality occurrence information before executing the forced open / close process, and then executes the forced open / close process, but this is not limiting. For example, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 may execute the forced open / close process without causing the terminal-side output unit 84 to output the abnormality occurrence information before executing the forced open / close process.

[0254] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned embodiment 1, it was explained that in SA5, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 executes normal opening and closing processing when a second wireless signal including abnormality occurrence information is not received, and executes forced opening and closing processing when a second wireless signal including abnormality occurrence information is received, but this is not limited to this.

[0255] For example, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 may generate a display area (not shown) on the screen of the terminal-side output unit 84 (hereinafter referred to as the "selection display area"), and display a first selection button for selecting the normal open / close process and a second selection button for selecting the forced open / close process in the generated selection display area. Then, when the first selection button is selected via the terminal-side operation unit 83, the second processing unit 86c of the terminal device 80 may execute the normal open / close process, and when the second selection button is selected via the terminal-side operation unit 83, the second processing unit 86c may execute the forced open / close process.

[0256] (Addendum) The control system of Appendix 1 is a control system comprising an opening / closing device installed at an opening of a building and a terminal device capable of wireless communication with the opening / closing device, and comprises: a first wireless communication means for performing a first wireless communication, which is wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device via a communication network; a second wireless communication means for performing a second wireless communication, which is direct wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device without using the communication network; and a priority means for prioritizing the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.

[0261] The terminal device described in Appendix 6 is a terminal device capable of wireless communication with an opening / closing device installed at an opening of a building, and is equipped with a first wireless communication means for performing a first wireless communication, which is wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device via a communication network, a second wireless communication means for performing a second wireless communication, which is direct wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device without using the communication network, and a priority means for prioritizing the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.

[0263] The terminal device program described in Appendix 8 is a terminal device program to be executed by a terminal device capable of wireless communication with an opening / closing device installed at an opening of a building, and causes a computer to function as a first wireless communication means for performing a first wireless communication, which is wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device via a communication network, a second wireless communication means for performing a second wireless communication, which is direct wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device without using the communication network, and a priority means for prioritizing the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.

[0264] The program for an opening / closing device described in Appendix 9 is a program for an opening / closing device to be executed by an opening / closing device that is installed at an opening of a building and is capable of wireless communication with a terminal device, and causes a computer to function as a first wireless communication means for performing a first wireless communication, which is wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device via a communication network, a second wireless communication means for performing a second wireless communication, which is direct wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device without via the communication network, and a priority means for prioritizing the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.

[0265] (Effect of supplementary notes) According to the control system described in Appendix 1, the control system is provided with a first wireless communication means for performing the first wireless communication, a second wireless communication means for performing the second wireless communication, and a priority means for prioritizing the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.Therefore, when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device can be performed more quickly and accurately than when the first wireless communication is prioritized, thereby improving the usability of the control system.

[0266] The control system described in Appendix 2 is provided with a first processing means for performing a first processing based on a first wireless signal, and a second processing means for performing a second processing based on a second wireless signal. Since the processing content of the first processing and the processing content of the second processing are not completely identical, it is possible to set the processing content according to the first processing and the processing content according to the second processing, and it is possible to execute the first processing and the second processing according to the situation.

[0267] According to the control system described in Appendix 3, the first process does not include a forced opening / closing process, and the second process includes a forced opening / closing process, so that the forced opening / closing process can be executed safely, making it easier to ensure safety when using the opening / closing device.

[0268] According to the control system described in Appendix 4, the second processing means acquires factor information before executing the forced opening / closing process and outputs the acquired factor information to the output means of the terminal device, so that the factor information can be presented to the user of the terminal device before the forced opening / closing process, and the user of the terminal device can execute the forced opening / closing process without feeling uncomfortable.

[0269] According to the control system described in Appendix 5, when only a first wireless communication is established between some of the multiple terminal devices and the opening / closing device, and a second wireless communication is established between some of the multiple terminal devices and the opening / closing device, the priority means prioritizes the second wireless communication, thereby enabling wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the other terminal devices to be carried out quickly and accurately, and ensuring the safety of users of the other terminal devices during the communication, thereby further improving the usability of the control system.

[0270] The terminal device described in Appendix 6 and the program for the terminal device described in Appendix 8 are provided with a first wireless communication means for performing the first wireless communication, a second wireless communication means for performing the second wireless communication, and a priority means for prioritizing the second wireless communication when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established.Therefore, when the first wireless communication and the second wireless communication are established, wireless communication between the opening / closing device and the terminal device can be performed more quickly and accurately than when the first wireless communication is prioritized, thereby improving the usability of the terminal device.
