FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing an example of processing for setting a remote control ID to a transmitter/receiver base unit in the opening/closing control system of FIG. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram showing an outline of the processing in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, after completing the remote control ID setting process for the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 and the transmitter/receiver slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43, as shown in FIG. The remote controller IDs of the switches 12 , 22 , 32 , 42 are set in the master transceiver 50 .

In step S61, each of the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, 42 transmits its own ID (id12, id22, id32, id42) and the corresponding transceiver 13 via the communication lines 12a, 22a, 32a, 42a. , 23, 33, 43 (id13, id23, id33, id43) and DIP switch status signals (000, 001, 010, 011) are transmitted to the master transceiver 50.

In step S62, the master transceiver 50 receives the IDs (id12, id22, id32, id42) of the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 via the communication lines 12b, 22b, 32b, and 42b. 13, 23, 33, 43 IDs (id13, id23, id33, id43) and DIP switch status signals (000, 001, 010, 011) are registered.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 7, the same ID groups and DIP switch state signals as those registered in the respective remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 are registered in the transmitter/receiver base unit 50. FIG.

In step S63, the master transceiver 50 sends the IDs (id12, id22, id32, id42) of the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, 42 and the slave transceiver 13 via the communication lines 13b, 23b, 33b, 43b. , 23, 33, 43 (id13, id23, id33, id43).
As a result, in steps S64 and S65, between the transmitter/receiver slave device 13, 23, 33, 43 corresponding to the reception ID and the transmission ID in the transmitter/receiver slave device 13, 23, 33, 43 and the master transmitter/receiver device 50, A two-way communication state is established via any one of the communication lines 13c, 23c, 33c and 43c.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a display screen of the mobile communication terminal. In FIG. 8, the mobile communication terminal 701 is an example of a screen showing an initial state in which the opening/closing body control remote controller application is activated. On the initial state screen of mobile communication terminal 701, selection buttons such as "individual shutter", "all shutters", "building shutters", and "garage shutters" are displayed. The "individual shutter" selection button is selected to individually control the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2 to 4 shown in FIG. The "all shutters" selection button is selected when the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2 to 4 shown in FIG. 1 are controlled simultaneously. The selection button of "inside building shutter" is selected when simultaneously controlling the window shutter devices 2 to 4 installed in the building among those shown in FIG. The "garage shutter" selection button is selected when controlling only the garage shutter device 1 shown in FIG.

In FIG. 8, a mobile communication terminal 702 shows an example of a screen when the "individual shutter" selection button of the mobile communication terminal 701 displaying the initial state screen is operated. Mobile communication terminal 702 selects "garage shutter", "1st floor window shutter", "2nd floor window shutter A", and "2nd floor window shutter B" as the device names that can be controlled to open and close as shown in FIG. A button appears. The "garage shutter" selection button corresponds to the garage shutter device 1 shown in FIG. The selection button of "1st floor window shutter" corresponds to the window shutter device 2 shown in FIG. The selection button for "second floor window shutter A" corresponds to the window shutter device 3 shown in FIG. The selection button of "2nd floor window shutter B" corresponds to the window shutter device 4 shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 6, these correspondence relationships can be set in the master transmitter/receiver 50 when two-way communication between the slave transmitter/receivers 13, 23, 33, and 43 and the master transmitter/receiver 50 is established. The system is configured so that the set contents are displayed on the mobile communication terminal 70 . Therefore, if it is "2nd floor window shutter A" and "2nd floor window shutter B", it may not be clear which of the window shutter devices 3 and 4 on the second floor is. Names such as "2nd floor ○○ room window shutter" and "2nd floor △△ room window shutter" may be assigned so as to be easy to understand. In this way, the name assigned to the master transceiver 50 is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 70 via the access point 60, so there is no need to separately register the mobile communication terminal 70 in the master transceiver 50. By simply connecting the mobile communication terminal 70 to the 60, the mobile communication terminal 70 can be used to appropriately control each operation of opening, closing, or stopping the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2-4.

In FIG. 8, the mobile communication terminal 703 shows an example of a screen when the selection button of the device name "garage shutter" displayed on the mobile communication terminal 702 that can be controlled to open and close is operated. At the top of the display screen of the mobile communication terminal 703, the device name "garage shutter", which is the current control target, is displayed, and below it, operation buttons for opening and closing are displayed. In FIG. 8, mobile communication terminal 704 shows an example of a screen when the selection button of the device name "second floor window shutter A" displayed on mobile communication terminal 702 whose opening and closing can be controlled is operated. At the top of the display screen of the mobile communication terminal 704, the name of the device currently being controlled, "Second Floor Window Shutter A" is displayed. , and operation buttons for ventilation and lighting for adjusting the amount of ventilation or the amount of lighting are displayed.

As described above, this ventilation lighting operation button is a slit type with a DIP switch status signal of "001" indicating the shutter type of the second-floor window shutter A. It is an operation button specific to the slit type shutter that is used. Similarly, in the case of a blind type in which the DIP switch state signal indicating the shutter type is "010", the "ventilation lighting" operation button for adjusting the ventilation rate is displayed like the mobile communication terminal 704. will be Therefore, in the case of the standard type in which the DIP switch state signal indicating the shutter type is "000", the "ventilation lighting" operation button is not displayed, and the opening/closing stop or halfway stop operation is performed like the mobile communication terminal 703 without being displayed. Only each operation button of is displayed. In addition, even in the case of the standard type, the operation button of "ventilation lighting" may be displayed.

As described above, selection of "garage shutter", "1st floor window shutter", "2nd floor window shutter A", or "2nd floor window shutter B" displayed on mobile communication terminal 702 When the button is operated, each device name is displayed on the upper part of the display screen as shown on the mobile communication terminals 703 and 704, and the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter are displayed using the display screens of the mobile communication terminals 703 and 704. It becomes possible to control each operation of opening/closing/stopping, halfway stopping, ventilation amount, or lighting amount of any one of the devices 2 to 4. In FIG. 8, the halfway stop operation button and the ventilation lighting operation button of the garage shutter device 1 are not displayed, but they may be displayed.

When the selection button for “shutter all” is operated on the display screen of mobile communication terminal 701 , the characters “shutter all” are displayed at the top of the display screen of mobile communication terminal 703 , and all shutters are displayed using mobile communication terminal 703 . It will be possible to control the opening and closing of the shutters all at once (simultaneously). In addition, in the case of all shutters, only the opening and closing operations are performed, and the stop operation button cannot be operated. This is because the time required for the opening/closing operation of the opening/closing body device varies, and it is difficult for the operator to determine at what stage the operation will be stopped when the operation is stopped. It is made impossible to operate the stop operation. Of course, it goes without saying that all or some of the shutters may be configured to be capable of stopping operation. It should be noted that it may be possible to set such that only half or about one-third of the fully opened or fully closed state is in the open state or in the closed state.

When the selection button for "inside building shutter" on the display screen of mobile communication terminal 701 is operated, "first floor window shutter", "second floor window A display screen of a mobile communication terminal 703 or 704 capable of operating "Shutter A" and "Second floor window shutter B" is displayed, and each operation such as opening/closing/stopping or stopping the window shutters, ventilation amount, or lighting amount is controlled. be able to In FIG. 1, the remote control switches 32 and 42 are wireless operating elements dedicated to the shutter device having only open/close buttons. In addition to the operation button, an operation button may be provided that can control each operation such as a midway stop and/or the amount of ventilation or the amount of lighting.

When the selection button for the garage shutter is operated on the display screen of the mobile communication terminal 701, the display screen of the mobile communication terminal 703 is displayed. You will be able to control each operation of

In the opening/closing control system shown in FIG. 1, a mobile communication terminal 70 other than the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 dedicated to the opening/closing body device is used to open/close the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2 to 4. Operation can be controlled accordingly. Further, since the master transceiver 50 and the mobile communication terminal 70 are connected via the access point 60 , only the mobile communication terminal 70 authenticated by WEP (WPA or WPA2 may be used) can connect to the master transceiver 50 . Since they are connected, high security can be constructed.

FIG. 9 shows remote control processing executed by the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 in the opening/closing control system of FIG. , 32 and 42. FIG. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of transmission/reception processing executed between the transmission/reception master device 50 and the transmission/reception slave devices 13, 23, 33, and 43 and the mobile communication terminal 70 in the opening/closing control system of FIG. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of transmission/reception processing executed between the mobile communication terminal 70 and the master transmission/reception device 50 in the opening/closing control system of FIG.

In FIG. 9, communication lines 1a, 2a, 3a, and 4a indicate transmission from remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 to corresponding transceivers 13, 23, 33, and 43, respectively. In FIGS. 9 and 10, communication lines 3a and 3b indicate transmission from transmission/reception child devices 13, 23, 33, and 43 to transmission/reception master device 50, and communication lines 5b and 5c indicate transmission/reception from transmission/reception master device 50, respectively. Transmission to child devices 13, 23, 33 and 43 is shown. 10 and 11, communication lines 5a and 5d indicate transmission from the master transceiver 50 to the mobile communication terminal 70, and communication lines 7a and 7b indicate transmission from the mobile communication terminal 70 to the master transceiver 50. .

In FIG. 9, remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 are connected to transmitter/receiver slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 via corresponding communication lines 1a, 2a, 3a, and 4a. Sends an operation signal corresponding to the operation button of . Transmitting/receiving slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 that have received operation signals via communication lines 1a, 2a, 3a, and 4a confirm IDs (id12, id22, id32, id42) included in the received operation signals. If they match, the process corresponding to the operation signal is executed.

Next, transmission/reception processing executed by the transmission/reception slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 based on operation signals from the transmission/reception master unit 50 and the remote control operation switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 will be described.
In step S91, when the state of the opening/closing body to be controlled (opening/closing stop or halfway stop and amount of ventilation and lighting) changes, the transmitter/receiver slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 transmit the state as a state signal to the communication line 3a. to the transmission/reception base unit 50 via the .
In step S92, it is determined whether or not the IDs included in the operation signals match. If they match (yes), the process proceeds to step S93, and if they do not match (no), the process returns. The operation signals in step S92 are the operation signals from the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, and 42 received by the transceiver slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 via the communication lines 1a, 2a, 3a, and 4a. It includes both operation signals from the transmission/reception base unit 50 received by the subunits 13, 23, 33, and 43 via the communication lines 5b and 5c.

In step S93, the opening/closing control circuits 11, 21, 31, and 41 having the matching ID included in the received operation signal execute processing of opening/closing stop, halfway stop, or ventilation/lighting operation corresponding to the operation signal. The ID includes an individual ID and a common ID. The individual ID is assigned to each opening and closing member to be controlled, and the common ID is included in the operation signal from the master transceiver 50. It is assigned in common to all shutters. Therefore, when the transmission/reception slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 receive an operation signal containing the common ID, all the opening/closing control circuits 11, 21, 31, and 41 process each opening/closing operation corresponding to the operation signal. to run. When all the shutters are operated at once (simultaneously) without providing a common ID, operation signals including respective individual IDs may be transmitted from the transmitter/receiver for the number of shutters.

In step S94, it is determined whether or not each operation of opening/closing stop, halfway stop, or ventilation lighting has been completed. If completed (yes), proceed to step S95; Returning to S93, the process corresponding to the operation signal is continued.
In step S95, it is determined whether or not the received operation signal is from the remote control switches 12, 22, 32, 42 via the communication lines 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a. If the operation signal from 32, 42 is (yes), the process returns immediately.
In step S96, each switching control circuit 11, 21, 31, 41 sends an operation end signal indicating that the process corresponding to the operation signal is completed via the transmitter/receiver slave units 13, 23, 33, 43 and the communication line 3b. It is transmitted to the transmission/reception base unit 50 .

In FIG. 10, the master transmitter/receiver 50 receives status signals and operation end signals via the communication line 3a and 3b, which are transmitted from the slave transmitter/receivers 13, 23, 33, and 43, respectively. Further, the master transceiver 50 receives an access signal transmitted from the portable communication terminal 70 via the communication line 7a and an operation instruction signal regarding all/individual shutters via the communication line 7b.
In step S101, the states of the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2 to 4 are recorded based on the state signals received from the transceivers 13, 23, 33 and 43 via the communication line 3a.
In step S102, in response to the access signal received from the mobile communication terminal 70 via the communication line 7a, the state of all the shutters such as the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2 to 4 recorded in step S101 is displayed. A status signal is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 70 via the communication line 5a.

In step S103, it is determined whether or not an operation instruction signal has been received from the mobile communication terminal 70 via the communication line 7b. It is determined whether the instruction signal is related to all shutters or individual shutters. If it is related to an individual shutter, the process proceeds to step S104, and if it is related to all shutters, the process proceeds to step S105.

In step S104, operation signals relating to the individual shutters are transmitted to the transceiver units 13, 23, 33, and 43 via the communication line 5b. Since the operation signal related to the individual shutters transmitted via the communication line 5b includes the aforementioned individual ID, the transmitter/receiver slave units 13, 23, 33, 43 (garage shutter device 1 and window shutter) corresponding to this individual ID Devices 2 to 4) execute processing corresponding to the operation signal in step S93.

In step S105, operation signals relating to all the shutters are transmitted to the transceiver units 13, 23, 33 and 43 via the communication line 5c. If the above-described common ID is included in the operation signal related to all the shutters transmitted via the communication line 5c, all the transmitter/receiver slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 that have received the common ID (Garage shutter device 1 and window shutter devices 2 to 4) execute processing corresponding to the operation signal in step S93.

In step S106, it is determined whether or not an operation end signal has been received from the transceiver slave units 13, 23, 33, 43 via the communication line 3b. If (no), this determination process is repeated until an operation end signal is received.
In step S107, the transmission/reception base unit 50 transmits an operation end signal indicating that the process corresponding to the operation signal has ended to the mobile communication terminal 70 via the communication line 5d.

In FIG. 11, the mobile communication terminal 70 receives the status signal and the operation end signal via the communication line 5a and the communication line 5d, which are transmitted from the master transceiver 50, respectively. In addition, the mobile communication terminal 70 transmits an access signal to the master transceiver 50 via the communication line 7a in response to activation of application software that functions as a remote control switch for the opening/closing body.
In step S111, the controllable garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2 to 4 are opened, closed, stopped, and ventilated based on the status signal received from the master transceiver 50 via the communication line 5a. is displayed on the display screen of the mobile communication terminal 70 .
In step S112, an operation instruction signal for all the shutters such as the garage shutter device 1 and the window shutter devices 2 to 4 or an operation instruction signal for individual shutters is transmitted to the master transceiver 50 via the communication line 7b.
In step S113, it is determined whether or not an operation end signal has been received from the transmission/reception base unit 50 via the communication line 5d. This determination process is repeated until the end signal is received.
In step S114, each state of opening/closing/stopping, halfway stopping, and ventilation/lighting of the shutter instructed by operation is displayed on the display screen of the portable communication terminal 70, and the process returns.

Conventionally, when stopping (half-opening or half-closing) a window shutter device, it is necessary to wirelessly execute the same operation for a plurality of window shutter devices. Output and operate. It takes about 3 seconds for transmission and reception for each window shutter device. There is no problem if the operation signal is an open signal or a close signal for fully opening or fully closing, but in the case of a midway stop control signal for performing a midway stop operation, a stop signal is sent after a predetermined time has passed after the open or close signal is sent. By doing so, it is stopped at a halfway stop (half-open or half-close) position. In this case, if there are a large number of window shutter devices to be operated simultaneously, it is necessary to send a stop signal to the first operated window shutter device while sending the open signal to each window shutter device. As a result, the control becomes very complicated, and the processing is hindered. Therefore, in this embodiment, the time to start the stop operation together with the open signal or the close signal from the transmitter/receiver master unit 50 to the transmitter/receiver slave units 13, 23, 33, 43 (garage shutter device 1 and window shutter devices 2 to 4) to send a signal indicating That is, after a predetermined time has passed since the start of the opening operation or the closing operation, a midway stop operation signal for stopping (half-opening or half-closing) operation is transmitted. As a result, it is possible to simplify the system for stopping the window shutter device or the like in the middle, and it is possible to simplify the control program.

FIG. 12 is a flow chart showing an example of operation signal response processing corresponding to each operation of opening/closing stop, midway stop, and ventilation lighting in step S93 of FIG. That is, in FIG. 12, an operation signal response process executed by the transceiver slave units 13, 23, 33, and 43 that have received an operation signal corresponding to each operation of opening/closing/stopping or stopping in the middle will be described.
In step S121, it is determined whether or not a stop signal has been received. If the stop signal is received (yes), the process proceeds to step S122, and if the signal is other than the stop signal (no), the process proceeds to step S124.
In step S122, it is determined whether the current operation of the shutter curtain is in the opening/closing operation or not (stopping). returns to step S121.
In step S123, since the opening/closing operation is being performed, the operation is stopped and the process returns to step S121. Here, the movement of the shutter curtain during the opening operation is defined as the forward movement, and the movement during the closing operation is defined as the reverse movement.

In step S124, it is determined whether or not an open signal has been received. If the open signal has been received (yes), the process proceeds to the next step S125, and if the signal is other than the open signal (no), the process proceeds to step S128.
In step S125, it is determined whether or not the shutter curtain is currently being closed (opening or stopped). If it is stopped (no), the process proceeds to step S127.
In step S126, since the closing operation is being performed, the closing operation is stopped, and after the closing operation is stopped, the opening operation is started, and the process returns to step S121.
In step S127, if the opening operation is being performed, the opening operation is continued as it is, and if the opening operation is being stopped, the opening operation is started, and the process returns to step S121.

In step S128, it is determined whether or not a closing signal has been received. If the closing signal is (yes), the process proceeds to step S129. If the closing signal is not (no), the process proceeds to step S12C.
In step S129, it is determined whether or not the shutter curtain is currently being opened (closed or stopped). If (no), the process proceeds to step S12A.
In step S12A, if the closing operation is being performed, the closing operation is continued as it is, and if the closing operation is being stopped, the closing operation is started, and the process returns to step S121.
In step S12B, since the opening operation is being performed, the opening operation is stopped, and after the opening operation is stopped, the closing operation is started, and the process returns to step S121.

In step S12C, it is determined whether or not an intermediate stop control signal has been received. If the intermediate stop control signal (yes), the process proceeds to the next step S12D, and if it is other than the intermediate stop control signal (no), the process proceeds to step S12G. .
In step S12D, it is determined whether the current operation of the shutter curtain is in the opening/closing operation or not (stopping). Proceed to S12E.
In step S12E, since the shutter curtain is stopped in the fully open or fully closed state, the opening operation or closing operation is started, and the process proceeds to the next step S12F.
In step S12F, since it is a midway stop control signal, the stop (half-open or half-close) operation is performed after a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the opening or closing operation, and the process returns to step S121.

After the half-open or half-close stop operation by the halfway stop control signal, the full-open or full-close operation may be automatically performed at a predetermined time (arbitrarily settable time). For example, any one or more (including all) shutters out of half-open and/or half-closed shutters are automatically fully opened at noon, and automatically fully opened at 6:00 pm. Close. Further, after the half-open or half-close stop operation by the halfway stop control signal, the full open or full close operation may be automatically performed when an arbitrarily settable time elapses. For example, after the half-open or half-close operation has stopped, the shutter may be automatically fully opened or fully closed after a predetermined period of time, such as 30 minutes to 1 hour. That is, when the half-opening stop is caused by the halfway stop control signal during the opening operation, the opening operation may be automatically performed to fully open one hour after the stopping operation. Conversely, if the half-closed stop is caused by the halfway stop control signal during the closing operation, the closing operation may be automatically performed to fully close 30 minutes after the stopping operation. Further, the half-open or half-close stop operation and the subsequent full-open or full-close operation may be automatically executed by a timer. When automatically executed by a timer, it can be set based on various conditions such as the season. For example, the half-open, full-open, half-close, and full-close operation times may be changed according to the times of sunrise and sunset that change with the seasons. Further, the half-open, full-open, half-close, and full-close operation times may be changed according to the calendar month corresponding to the season or the day of the week.

Step S12G corresponds to the case where an operation signal other than the intermediate stop control signal in the previous step S12C, that is, an operation signal regarding the amount of ventilation and lighting is received, so the amount of ventilation or the amount of lighting is adjusted according to the operation signal regarding the amount of ventilation and lighting. , and returns to step S121. In addition, when the operation to adjust the amount of ventilation or the amount of lighting starts from the fully open or fully closed state of the ventilation or lighting and stops after a predetermined time has passed, the above-mentioned In the same way as the midway stop control signal, it is possible to respond to the operation signal related to the ventilation and lighting amount by transmitting it as a ventilation amount or lighting amount operation signal for stopping operation after a predetermined time has elapsed since the start of the opening or closing operation. Become.

In the above-described embodiment, the case where individual shutters are grouped, such as all shutters and shutters inside a building, is explained as an example. A case of arbitrarily grouping and controlling one or more of the possible individual shutters will be described. FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a shutter list screen, a shutter setting screen, and a group setting screen as examples of operation screens of remote control application software for controlling the opening/closing body. FIG. 14 shows a second group selection screen, a third group selection screen, and a group setting screen. FIG. 15 is a diagram showing how the shutter list screen changes.

In FIG. 13, the mobile communication terminal 131 shows an example of a shutter list screen that can be operated by the opening/closing body control remote control application.
