A power OFF button of each electric appliance such as an ON button and a stove is displayed on the liquid crystal panel.

  When the TV power ON button is pressed in step S1714, the CPU 144 transmits a control signal for turning on the TV in step S1715. When the power ON button of the lighting apparatus is pressed in step S1716, the CPU 144 turns on the lighting apparatus in step S1717. When a control signal for turning on the power is transmitted and the power-off button on the stove is pressed in step S1718, a control signal for cutting off the power of the stove is transmitted in step S1719. Next, when the emergency earthquake mode is canceled in step S1720, the process ends.

  With the above configuration, in the seventh embodiment of the present invention, the power button of the electrical appliance is automatically displayed upon receipt of an emergency earthquake warning that warns of the occurrence of an earthquake. It is possible to provide a portable terminal and an emergency system that turn on an electric appliance such as a lighting fixture and turn off an electric appliance such as a stove.

  In addition, when a vibration is detected, the power button of the electrical appliance is automatically displayed, so in the event of an emergency, turn on the electrical appliance such as a TV or lighting fixture, and turn off the electrical appliance such as a stove. Terminals and emergency systems can be provided.

  Further, when the seismic intensity is higher than a preset value, the power OFF button for all appliances is automatically displayed, so that a portable terminal and an emergency system are provided that can turn off the power of all appliances with a minimum of button operations in an emergency. be able to.

  Furthermore, when the automatic power-off mode is set, it is possible to provide a portable terminal and an emergency system that automatically turn off the power of all electrical appliances in an emergency.

In addition, this invention is not limited to an above-described Example, Various modifications are included.
For example, there are control signals of a plurality of systems depending on the manufacturer and model of the television. For example, if the control signals of all systems are transmitted in order, all televisions can be handled.

  In each of the examples, the earthquake early warning was applied as emergency information to notify the advance notice, occurrence, or probability of a disaster. Instead of or in addition to this, emergency lightning flash, emergency fire bulletin, emergency tsunami Bulletin, emergency typhoon bulletin, emergency heavy rain bulletin, emergency river flood bulletin, emergency eruption bulletin, etc. may be applied.

  In addition, although an example in which the portable terminal turns on the power of the television or the lighting fixture is shown, an electric appliance that can receive a control signal such as a radio may be applied instead of the television. In addition, although an example of a stove has been described as a target for turning off the power of the portable terminal, an appliance that can receive a control signal such as an electric stove may be applied.

  Further, when turning on the television, a predetermined channel (for example, NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation)) may be set to acquire predetermined information in an emergency. In addition, the user may easily obtain information by increasing the volume of a speaker (not shown). In these cases, it is possible for the portable terminal to be realized by including information specifying the reception channel and volume in the control signal.

  In this embodiment, the control signal is transmitted by infrared rays. However, the control signal may be transmitted by radio waves or light.

  Furthermore, in the emergency earthquake mode, if the output of the control signal transmission unit is increased as compared with the normal mode, the appliance can be controlled more reliably.

  The above-described embodiments have been described in detail for easy understanding of the present invention, and are not necessarily limited to those having all the configurations described. Further, a part of the configuration of one embodiment can be replaced with the configuration of another embodiment, and the configuration of another embodiment can be added to the configuration of one embodiment. Further, it is possible to add, delete, and replace other configurations for a part of the configuration of each embodiment.

  Each of the above-described configurations, functions, processing units, processing means, and the like may be realized by hardware by designing a part or all of them with, for example, an integrated circuit. Each of the above-described configurations, functions, and the like may be realized by software by interpreting and executing a program that realizes each function by the processor. Information such as programs, tables, and files for realizing each function can be stored in a memory, a hard disk, a recording device such as an SSD (Solid State Drive), or a recording medium such as an IC card or an SD card.

  Further, the control lines and information lines indicate what is considered necessary for the explanation, and not all the control lines and information lines on the product are necessarily shown. Actually, it may be considered that almost all the components are connected to each other.
