Abstract

A home automation system is composed of a mobile telephone 300, a base unit 100, a plurality of terminal units 200, and a plurality of electric appliances. The mobile telephone 300 is capable of communicating with the base unit 100 to transmit to the base unit 100 a first control signal conveying appliance identifying data and control data. The base unit 100 includes a transit switch for receiving the first control signal and transmitting a second control signal to a terminal unit 200 determined according to the identifying data included in the first control signal. The terminal unit 200 comprises an appliance controller for controlling a target electric appliance identified by the identifying data included in the second control signal depending on the control data. Communications are by radio, except between terminal units and appliances which uses infrared.
