Referring to the operation of the present invention configured as described above is as follows.

First, the user registers a unique code of the remote controller 1, a control key for controlling the lamp, and the like to wirelessly control the lamp Lp with the remote controller 1.

In the registration process, when the user turns on the specific machine switch 21 to turn on the lamp Lp, the load sensing unit 39 connected to the corresponding lamp Lp detects a state in which the lamp is turned on and the second is turned on. The sensing information is output to the MPU 42, and the second MPU 42 switches to the registration waiting state.

In this state, when the user presses the registration key and the specific control key provided in the key unit 11 of the remote controller 1 at the same time, the first MPU 20 transmits the remote control unique code and the input control key code to the wireless transmitter 15. Wireless transmission to the control means (3) through, and the wireless receiving unit 32 of the control means 3 receives the remote control unique code and the control key code transmitted from the remote control 1 to supply to the second MPU (42) The second MPU 42 stores the input remote control unique code and the control key code in the memory 35 as control information for controlling the electronic switch 43 connected to the first mechanical switch 21.

When the control signal of the lamp is input from the remote controller 1, the second MPU 42 receives the load from the remote controller 1 when the load is detected from the load sensing units 39 to 41 connected to the lamp Lp. Ignore the transmitted control signal.

Because the load is detected by the load sensing units 39 to 41, the lamp Lp is already turned on by the mechanical switches 21 to 23, and thus the electronic switches 43 to 45 are not controlled. Wireless control of the lamp using (1) is effective only when the mechanical switches 21 to 23 are off.

In addition, since the second MPU 42 is rectified by the transformer 46 and the bridge diode 38 to operate with power supplied through the DC power supply unit 37, the second MPU 42 operates regardless of whether the lamp is turned on or off. The second MPU 42 transmits the current lighting state of each lamp Lp to the remote controller 1 so that the user visually displays the lighting state of each lamp Lp through the display unit 12 of the remote controller 1. Make sure to check.

According to the present invention as described above, the user can expect the effect of being able to conveniently control the lights installed in each room, living room and toilet with the remote control 1, and especially the lights installed in the room of children It can be managed efficiently.

In addition, the user can be connected to the terminal 2 installed in the home while the user is out of the room to control the lights of each room as well as a predetermined time when the operation time of the light can go out at a certain time when going out at night As it turns on and off, you can expect the same effect as a person being indoors.

As described above, the present invention is capable of registering a control key of a lamp and setting an operation time of the lamp, and wirelessly communicating with the remote controller and a remote controller having a display unit for displaying the remaining time of the lamp and an on / off state light. It is assumed that the light is turned on during the received operation time, and the control means for automatically turning off the light when the self-counting time reaches the operation time and controlling the corresponding light on / off according to the remote control control signal.
