The control-side control unit 104 is a control-side control means that controls each part of the control device 100, and as shown in FIG. 3, functionally includes a control-side opening/closing control unit 104a.

The control-side opening/closing control unit 104a is an opening/closing control means that repeatedly performs first opening/closing control and second opening/closing control for controlling the opening/closing movement of the opening/closing body 30 at a predetermined period. Note that details of the processing executed by the control-side control unit 104 will be described later.

(Configuration - Opening/closing control system - Control device - Control side storage unit)
The control side storage unit 105 is a control side storage means that stores programs and various data necessary for the operation of the control device 100.

(Opening/closing control processing)
Next, the opening/closing control process executed by the opening/closing control system 50 configured as described above will be explained. Note that in the following description, each step is abbreviated as "S" in the description of each process shown in FIGS. 4 to 8.

The opening/closing control process is a process for controlling the opening/closing movement of the opening/closing body 30. Although the timing of executing this opening/closing control process is arbitrary, in the embodiment, the opening/closing machine 40, the opening/closing body side operating device 60 of the opening/closing control system 50, the remote operating device 70, the position detection section 80, the receiving section 90, The following description assumes that the control device 100 is activated after the power of the control device 100 is turned on.

Further, as a premise of this opening/closing control process, as shown in FIG. The following explanation assumes that the following is displayed. However, before the start of the opening/closing control process, it is assumed that the first timer registration setting and the second timer registration setting have not been performed in the control device 100, so the current date and time information is displayed on the normal screen 73a. However, it is assumed that timer setting status information is not displayed.

Here, "first timer registration setting" means registering and setting the first execution timing information in the remote control device 70. In addition, "second timer registration setting" means registering and setting the second execution timing information in the remote control device 70, and in the embodiment, it is assumed to be set in conjunction with the first timer registration setting. explain. In addition, "current date and time information" is information indicating the current date and time, and for example, as shown in Figure 2, "10:00" which is the current time, "Monday" which is the current day of the week, etc. do. In addition, "timer setting status information" is information indicating the setting status of the first timer registration setting and the second timer registration setting. For example, as shown in FIG. "18:00" is the time of the execution timing information corresponding to the second opening/closing control (opening time described later or closing time described later), and the content of the first opening/closing control or second opening/closing control to be performed most recently (opening movement or closing). “Open” (indicating open movement) is the first timer registration setting, and “Timer 1, 2, 3” indicates that the first timer registration setting is being performed (three timer registration groups are set in the first timer registration setting). (indicating that the second timer registration setting is being performed), a figure (for example, a clock figure), etc. indicating that the second timer registration setting is being performed.

Further, although the specific contents of the first timer registration setting and the second timer registration setting are arbitrary, in the embodiment, it is possible to set three timer registration groups for each (however, this is not limited to (For example, the number of timer registration groups may be less than three, or may be four or more.) Further, in the three timer registration groups, it is possible to respectively set the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control to be performed a plurality of times within one week. As a result, when at least one of the three timer registration groups is performed, first execution timing information or Second execution timing information will be set. For example, in the first timer registration setting, a first timer registration group performs the first opening/closing control on Mondays and Tuesdays, a second timer registration group performs the first opening/closing control on Wednesday, and a third timer registration group performs the first opening/closing control on Fridays. When timer registration groups are set, first execution timing information is set for each day of the week for each timer registration group.

When the opening/closing control process is started, as shown in FIG. 4, the operation-side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 performs processes SA1 to SA10 in order to transmit various information to the control device 100.

First, in SA1, the operation-side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 determines whether the timing for performing the process in SA2 (hereinafter referred to as "first process timing"), which will be described later, has arrived.

Although the method for determining whether the first processing timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, a predetermined operation (for example, pressing the first setting button 71d) via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70 is used. If the predetermined operation is accepted, it is determined that the first processing timing has arrived, and if the predetermined operation is not accepted, the first processing timing is determined. It is determined that it has not arrived.

Then, when it is determined that the first processing timing has arrived (SA1, Yes), the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 starts the operating side first timer setting process (SA2), and starts the first processing timing. If it is determined that the timing has not arrived (SA1, No), the process moves to SA3. Further, after the operation-side first timer setting process of SA2 is executed, the operation-side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 shifts to SA1. Note that details of the processing contents of the operation side first timer setting processing will be described later.

In SA3, the operation-side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 determines whether the timing for performing the process in SA4 (hereinafter referred to as "second process timing"), which will be described later, has arrived.

Although the method for determining whether or not the second processing timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, when the first timer registration setting is performed (specifically, the operation side storage unit 76 (if the first execution timing information is stored in the first execution timing information), the determination is made based on whether a predetermined operation (for example, pressing the second setting button 71e, etc.) is accepted via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70. However, if the predetermined operation is accepted, it is determined that the second processing timing has arrived, and if the predetermined operation is not accepted, it is determined that the second processing timing has not arrived.

Then, when it is determined that the second processing timing has arrived (SA3, Yes), the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 starts the operating side second timer setting process (SA4), and starts the second processing timing. If it is determined that the timing has not arrived (SA3, No), the process moves to SA5. Further, after the operation-side second timer setting process of SA4 is executed, the operation-side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 shifts to SA1. Note that details of the processing contents of the operation side second timer setting processing will be described later.

In SA5, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 determines whether the timing for performing the process in SA6 (hereinafter referred to as "third process timing"), which will be described later, has arrived.

Although the method for determining whether or not the third processing timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is performed (specifically, the operation (when the first execution timing information or second execution timing information is stored in the side storage unit 76), and the time of the execution timing information for which the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is set (the release time described later or In the case that the operation input of the first cancellation instruction information is accepted via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70 during a predetermined time period before the arrival of the closing time (for example, the last 5 minutes before the arrival of the closing time) If the operation input of the first cancellation instruction information is accepted, it is determined that the third processing timing has arrived, and if the operation input of the first cancellation instruction information is not accepted. It is determined that the third processing timing has not arrived.

Here, the "first cancellation instruction information" is cancellation instruction information that instructs to cancel (stop) the first opening/closing control and the second opening/closing control, and the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is set. This is cancel instruction information for canceling only part of the first execution timing information or second execution timing information. Further, although the method for accepting operation input of the first cancellation instruction information is arbitrary, in the embodiment, in order to prevent operation by mistake or mischief, a plurality of buttons constituting the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70 are used. It is accepted by pressing at least one or more buttons for a predetermined period of time (the same applies to the operation of the second cancellation instruction information or the third cancellation instruction information, which will be described later). . For example, the request may be accepted by pressing and holding the stop button 71c for several seconds. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the reception may be received by, for example, pressing a plurality of buttons non-simultaneously or simultaneously.

Then, when it is determined that the third processing timing has arrived (SA5, Yes), the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 starts the operating side third timer setting process (SA6), and performs the third processing. If it is determined that the timing has not arrived (SA5, No), the process moves to SA7. Further, after the operation side third timer setting process of SA6 is executed, the operation side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 shifts to SA1. Note that details of the processing contents of the third timer setting process on the operating side will be described later.

In SA7, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 determines whether the timing for performing the process in SA8 (hereinafter referred to as "fourth process timing") has arrived, which will be described later.

Although the method for determining whether or not the fourth processing timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, when the second timer registration setting is performed (specifically, (when the second execution timing information is stored in the second execution timing information), the determination is made based on whether or not the operation input of the test instruction information is accepted, and if the operation input of the test instruction information is accepted, the fourth processing timing is determined. It is determined that the fourth processing timing has not arrived, and if the operation input of the test instruction information is not accepted, it is determined that the fourth processing timing has not arrived.

Here, "test instruction information" refers to opening/closing to a half-open position corresponding to the first travel time information described later when an operation input of the first travel time information described later is accepted in the second timer registration setting. This refers to information that instructs execution of a test in which the body 30 is opened and closed. Further, although the method for accepting operation input of the test instruction information is arbitrary, in the embodiment, one of the plurality of buttons constituting the operation section 71 of the remote control device 70 is selected in order to prevent operation by mistake or mischief. It is accepted by pressing at least two or more buttons simultaneously for a predetermined period of time. For example, it may be accepted by pressing and holding the second setting button 71e and the return button 71g for 5 seconds. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the reception may be made by pressing a plurality of buttons non-simultaneously.

Then, when it is determined that the fourth processing timing has arrived (SA7, Yes), the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operation device 70 shifts to SA8, and determines that the fourth processing timing has not arrived. If (SA7, No), the process moves to SA9.

In SA8, the operation-side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 transmits a signal including information related to test opening/closing control, which will be described later, to the control device 100 via the receiving unit 90, and then proceeds to SA1.

Here, the method of transmitting the above-mentioned signal is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, in order to move the opening/closing body from the fully open position to the half-open position, first, the opening/closing method accepted in the second timer registration setting, which will be described later, is transmitted. The instruction information is transmitted, and then, after the time specified by the first movement time information described below has elapsed, the stop instruction information is transmitted.

In SA9, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 determines whether the timing for performing the process in SA10 (hereinafter referred to as "fifth process timing"), which will be described later, has arrived.

Although the method for determining whether the fifth processing timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, the opening/closing instruction information (specifically, opening instruction information, closing instruction information, or stop instruction information) is The determination is made based on whether or not the operation input is accepted, and if the operation input of the opening/closing instruction information is accepted, it is determined that the fifth processing timing has arrived, and if the operation input of the opening/closing instruction information is not accepted. It is determined that the fifth processing timing has not arrived.

Then, when it is determined that the fifth processing timing has arrived (SA9, Yes), the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operation device 70 moves to SA10, and determines that the fifth processing timing has not arrived. If so (SA9, No), the process moves to SA1.

At SA10, the operating side control section 75 of the remote operation device 70 transmits the signal containing the opening/closing instruction information accepted at SA9 to the control device 100 via the receiving section 90, and then moves to SA1, and thereafter performs the same operation. Repeat the processing from SA1 to SA10.

(Opening/closing process - operation side first timer setting process)
Next, the operation side first timer setting process of SA2 in FIG. 4 will be explained. The operation side first timer setting process is a process for transmitting first execution timing information and the like.

When the first timer setting process on the operating side is started, as shown in FIG. It is determined whether the timing (hereinafter referred to as "first cancellation timing") has arrived to cancel (interrupt or stop) the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information.

Although the method for determining whether the first cancellation timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, when the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is performed, the predetermined operation of SA1 The determination is made based on whether or not the is the first cancel operation or the input operation of the second cancel instruction information, and if it is the first cancel operation or the input operation of the second cancel instruction information, the first cancel timing has arrived. If the first cancel operation and the second cancel instruction information input operation are not performed, it is determined that the first cancel timing has not arrived. Here, the "first cancel operation" is an operation for canceling all of the first execution timing information or second execution timing information set for the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting, for example, the first This includes short pressing of the setting button 71d. Further, "second cancellation instruction information" is cancellation instruction information that instructs cancellation of the first opening/closing control, and is information for canceling only a part of the first execution timing information set in the first timer registration. This is cancellation instruction information. Although the input operation of the second cancellation instruction information is optional, for example, after pressing and holding the first setting button 71d, the timer to be canceled is selected from among the timer registration groups set in the first timer registration setting. This includes selecting information indicating a registered group, etc.

Then, when it is determined that the first cancel timing has not arrived (SB1, No), the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operation device 70 moves to SB2, and determines that the first cancel timing has arrived. If (SB1, Yes), the process moves to SB5.

At SB2, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 acquires first execution timing information. Here, in the embodiment, the "first execution timing information" includes opening time information indicating the opening time at which opening movement of the opening/closing body 30 is performed in the first opening/closing control, and opening time information indicating the opening time at which the opening/closing body 30 is moved in the first opening/closing control. It is configured to include closing time information indicating the closing time for movement, opening/closing day information indicating the day of the week on which the first opening/closing control is performed, and the like.

Further, although the method for acquiring this first execution timing information is arbitrary, in the embodiment, information input via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70 (specifically, information newly input , or information that is input as a change to previously input information) as the first execution timing information. Specifically, when opening time information, closing time information, and opening/closing day information are input, , acquire the information as the first execution timing information (in addition, if the time is not input when inputting the opening time information (or opening time information), the opening movement of the opening/closing body 30 (or closed movement) shall not be carried out). In this case, in the embodiment, when the first execution timing information is input, the display section 73 switches from the normal screen 73a to the first setting screen (not shown), and displays the first setting screen remotely. By displaying information corresponding to the operation performed via the operation unit 71 of the operation device 70, it is possible to input the first execution timing information accurately. In the embodiment, if the opening time information, closing time information, or opening/closing day information is not input even after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, it is assumed that the first execution timing information could not be acquired, and the processing of SB3 and SB4 is performed. The operation side first timer setting process ends without performing the above.

At SB3, the operating side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote operating device 70 executes first timer registration setting to register the first execution timing information acquired at SB2. Specifically, the first execution timing information acquired above is newly stored (or updated) in an operating side setting table (not shown) stored in advance in the operating side storage section 76.

At SB4, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 performs output processing, and then ends the operating side first timer setting process.

Here, the specific content of this output processing is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, it is as follows.

That is, the operation-side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote control device 70 generates a signal containing opening/closing instruction information based on the opening time information, closing time information, and opening/closing day information included in the first execution timing information registered at SB3. Send. In particular, in the embodiment, since the first opening/closing control corresponding to each piece of first execution timing information registered in SB3 is executed in a one-week cycle, the execution timing of each week's first execution timing information arrives. The signal containing the opening/closing instruction information is continuously transmitted at each time (the same applies to the processing of SC4).

For example, when opening time information = Monday and opening time information = 8:00, a signal including opening instruction information is transmitted, and when opening/closing day information = Monday and closing time information = 10:00, a signal including closing instruction information is transmitted. (Specifically, the signal is continuously transmitted on Mondays of each week). However, if the closing time information is earlier than the opening time information, the signal containing the closing instruction information is first transmitted, and then the signal containing the opening instruction information is transmitted. Note that if it takes time until the timing for transmitting the signal including the opening/closing instruction information arrives, other processing may be performed in parallel (the same applies to the method of transmitting the signal of SC4). ). Further, although the method of transmitting the signal including the opening/closing instruction information is arbitrary, in the embodiment, in order to improve the reliability of the transmission of the signal, the number of transmissions of the signal (for example, a predetermined time period of the signal) (number of transmissions per signal, etc.) is set to be larger than the number of transmissions of signals transmitted in SA10. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be the same as the number of signals transmitted in SA10 (note that the same applies to the method of transmitting signals in SC4).

Further, the display control unit 75b of the remote control device 70 switches the display unit 73 from the first setting screen to the normal screen 73a and displays the first execution timing information on the normal screen 73a. In this case, the method of displaying the first execution timing information on the normal screen 73a is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, it is displayed as follows (note that the method of displaying the second execution timing information is also omitted). The same shall apply).

That is, among the first execution timing information, the first execution timing information to be executed most recently is displayed on the normal screen 73a with priority over other first execution timing information. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, only the most recent first execution timing information is displayed. In this case, for example, when the first opening/closing control corresponding to the first execution timing information to be executed most recently is executed, the first execution timing information corresponding to the first opening/closing control to be executed next is displayed. As a result, the first execution timing information corresponding to the first opening/closing control to be performed most recently can be displayed with priority over other first execution timing information, and the first execution timing information corresponding to the first opening/closing control that is a candidate for cancellation can be displayed with priority over other first execution timing information. 1 execution timing information becomes easier for the user to visually recognize.

In addition, in the operation-side third timer setting process of SA6, the time period in which the first opening/closing control corresponding to the first execution timing information that is displayed preferentially above can be canceled (specifically, the first timer registration setting The display mode of the first execution timing information to be displayed preferentially may be changed based on whether the first execution timing information is in a predetermined time period before the opening time or closing time arrives. . For example, on the normal screen 73a, the first execution timing information that is displayed with priority is displayed blinking when it is in the time period where cancellation is possible, and is displayed with priority when it is not within the time period where cancellation is possible. The first execution timing information may be displayed by lighting. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, it may be displayed in a different size or in a different color depending on whether the time slot is cancelable or not. Alternatively, audio may be output via an audio output means (for example, a speaker) not shown. This makes it easier for the user to visually confirm whether or not it is a time period in which the first opening/closing control can be canceled, so that the user can surely grasp whether or not it is a time period in which the first opening/closing control can be canceled. becomes possible.

In addition, the execution timing (specifically, the day of the week and either the opening time or opening time) of the first execution timing information to be displayed with priority is within a predetermined time (for example, immediately before the execution timing arrives). Whether or not to display the first execution timing information to be displayed preferentially is determined based on whether the first execution timing information is displayed preferentially, and based on the determination result, the first execution timing to be displayed preferentially. The information is displayed on the normal screen 73a. Specifically, if the execution timing is within a predetermined time, the first execution timing information is displayed with priority, and if the execution timing is not within the predetermined time, the first execution timing information is displayed with priority. Do not display the first execution timing information. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the first opening/closing control corresponding to the first execution timing information displayed with priority from being erroneously canceled.

At SB5, the operating side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote operating device 70 specifies the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information to be canceled.

The method for specifying the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information to be canceled is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, it is specified as follows. That is, if it is determined in SB1 that the predetermined operation of SA1 is the first cancel operation, all of the first execution timing information or second execution timing information set in the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is specified as the first execution timing information or second execution timing information to be canceled. Further, in SB1, it is determined that the predetermined operation of SA1 was an input operation of the second cancel instruction information, and after the determination, the predetermined operation (for example, shortening the first setting button 71d) via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70 is performed. (such as pressing), only the first execution timing information belonging to the timer registration group selected by the input operation of the second cancel instruction information is specified as the first execution timing information to be canceled. Here, when the above-mentioned predetermined operation is performed, in the embodiment, the normal screen 73a is switched to a cancel screen (not shown) on the display unit 73, and information etc. corresponding to the above-mentioned predetermined operation is displayed on the cancel screen. By displaying this, it is possible to accurately perform the above-mentioned predetermined operation (after this operation, the cancel screen is switched to the normal screen 73a). In the embodiment, if the predetermined operation is not performed even after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, it is assumed that the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information could not be specified, and the processes of SB6 and SB7 are performed. The operation-side first timer setting process ends without any error.

At SB6, the operating side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote operating device 70 executes a first timer cancel setting to cancel the registration of the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information specified at SB5. Specifically, among the first execution timing information or second execution timing information stored in the operating side setting table, the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information specified in SB5 is invalidated (specifically (In this case, the information is stored, but no processing is performed based on the information.)

For example, first timer registration setting = first timer registration group that performs first opening/closing control on Monday and Tuesday, second timer registration group that performs first opening/closing control on Wednesday, and third timer registration group that performs first opening/closing control on Friday. When a registration group is set and the second timer registration setting = release movement of the first timer registration group and release movement of the second timer registration group are set (hereinafter referred to as "example timer registration setting"), , SB1 when the first cancel operation is accepted, invalidates the first execution timing information belonging to the first timer registration group, the second timer registration group, and the third timer registration group, and cancels the first execution timing information belonging to the first timer registration group and the second timer registration group. The second execution timing information belonging to the timer registration group is invalidated (that is, all execution timing information is invalidated). In addition, in the above exemplary timer registration settings, an input operation of the second cancel instruction information (specifically, the first execution timing information belonging to the third timer registration group is selected in the input operation) is accepted at SA1. When the first execution timing information belongs to the third timer registration group, the first execution timing information belonging to the third timer registration group is invalidated. Note that, for example, when the third timer registration group has the first timer registration setting and the second timer registration setting, the input operation of the second cancellation instruction information in SA1 (specifically, the input operation for the third timer When the first execution timing information belonging to the registered group is selected), the first execution timing information and the second execution timing information belonging to the third timer registration group in the first timer registration setting and the second timer registration setting are received. Disable each.

Through the processing of SB5 and SB6, when at least one or more of the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control is repeatedly executed, the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control can be canceled, It becomes possible to perform the first opening/closing control and the second opening/closing control according to the user's needs. In particular, in the first timer cancel setting, only some of the first opening/closing controls or the second opening/closing controls among the at least one or more first opening/closing controls or second opening/closing controls can be canceled. Therefore, compared to the case where it is only possible to cancel all of the first opening/closing controls that are repeatedly executed in the first timer cancel setting, it is possible to cancel some of the first opening/closing controls easily and quickly, and The usability of the control system 50 can be improved.

At SB7, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 performs output processing, and then ends the operating side first timer setting process.

Here, the specific content of this output processing is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, it is as follows. That is, if all of the first execution timing information or second execution timing information for which the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is canceled at SB6, the display control unit 75b of the remote control device 70 The timer setting status information on the normal screen 73a is hidden. Further, if only the first execution timing information belonging to the timer registration group selected by the input operation of the second cancellation instruction information is canceled at SB6, the canceled first execution timing information is displayed on the normal screen 73a. Hidden.

In the embodiment, all of the first execution timing information or second execution timing information for which the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is set in SB6 is canceled, and after the output processing of SB7 is performed. When a predetermined operation is performed, a recovery process is performed to restore the canceled first execution timing information or second execution timing information (specifically, the first execution timing information or second execution timing information is returned to the operating side) the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information is redisplayed on the normal screen 73a). Although this predetermined operation is arbitrary, it may be the same operation as the first cancel operation, for example. Further, only the first execution timing information belonging to the timer registration group selected by the input operation of the second cancel instruction information in SB6 is canceled, and after the output process in SB7 is performed, the first opening/closing control is canceled. When an operation input of release instruction information instructing release is received via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70, processing substantially similar to the above recovery processing is executed. Here, the method for accepting the operation input of the cancellation instruction information is arbitrary, but may be, for example, substantially the same method as the method of accepting the operation input for the second cancellation instruction information. Through these processes, even if the first timer cancel setting is executed by mistake (that is, even if the first opening/closing control or the first opening/closing control is canceled), it is possible to easily recover.

(Opening/closing process - operating side second timer setting process)
Next, the operation side second timer setting process of SA4 in FIG. 4 will be explained. The operation-side second timer setting process is a process for transmitting second execution timing information and the like.

When the second timer setting process on the operating side is started, as shown in FIG. It is determined whether the timing to cancel (interrupt or stop) (hereinafter referred to as "second cancel timing") has arrived.

Although the method for determining whether or not the second cancel timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, when the second timer registration setting is performed, the predetermined operation of SA3 is the second cancel operation. If it is the second cancel operation, it is determined that the second cancel timing has arrived, and if it is not the second cancel operation, it is determined that the second cancel timing has arrived. It is determined that there is no. Here, the "second cancel operation" is an operation for canceling all of the second execution timing information registered and set in the second timer, and for example, it corresponds to a short press of the second setting button 71e. .

Then, when it is determined that the second cancel timing has not arrived (SC1, No), the operating side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 shifts to SC2, and determines that the second cancel timing has arrived. If (SC1, Yes), the process moves to SC4.

At SC2, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 acquires the second execution timing information. Here, in the embodiment, the "second execution timing information" includes opening time information indicating the opening time at which opening movement of the opening/closing body 30 is performed in the second opening/closing control, and opening/closing day information indicating the day of the week on which the second opening/closing control is performed. , first movement time information (movement time information) indicating the time required for the opening/closing body 30 to move from the fully closed position to the half-open position (opening movement) in the second opening/closing control; It is configured to include second movement time information indicating the time from when the opening movement of the opening/closing body 30 is resumed.

Although the method for acquiring this second execution timing information is arbitrary, in the embodiment, the first movement time information and the second movement time information are inputted via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70, and the The input first movement time information and second movement time information, and the opening time information and opening/closing day information of the first execution timing information set in the first timer registration are acquired as the second execution timing information (in addition, If there is a plurality of pieces of first execution timing information for which the first timer has been registered, the open time information and opening/closing day information of each piece of first execution timing information are acquired as second execution timing information. In this case, in the embodiment, when the first travel time information and the second travel time information are input, the display unit 73 switches from the normal screen 73a to a second setting screen (not shown) and displays it, By displaying information corresponding to the operation performed via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70 on the second setting screen, it is possible to accurately input the first travel time information and the second travel time information. ing. In the embodiment, if the first movement time information or the second movement time information is not input even after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, it is assumed that the second execution timing information could not be obtained, and the processes of SC3 and SC4 are performed. The second timer setting process on the operating side is ended without any further processing.

At SC3, the operating side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote control device 70 executes second timer registration setting to register the second execution timing information acquired at SC2. Specifically, the acquired second execution timing information is newly stored (or updated) in the operating side setting table.

At SC4, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 performs output processing, and then ends the operating side second timer setting process.

Here, the specific content of this output processing is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, it is as follows.

That is, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote control device 70 operates based on the first movement time information, second movement time information, opening time information, and opening/closing day information included in the second execution timing information registered in the SC3. transmits a signal containing opening/closing instruction information. For example, first, when opening time information=Monday and opening time information=8:00 arrive (that is, when the first opening/closing timing arrives), a signal including opening instruction information is transmitted. Next, after the time of the first movement time information has elapsed since transmitting the signal containing the opening instruction information (that is, when the second opening/closing timing arrives), a signal containing the stop instruction information is transmitted. Then, after the time of the second movement time information has elapsed since the signal containing the stop instruction information was transmitted, the signal containing the open instruction information is again transmitted. Here, the "first opening/closing timing" means the timing at which the opening/closing body 30 is opened and moved to the half-open position. Further, in the embodiment, the "second opening/closing timing" means the timing of opening and moving from the half-open position to the fully open position.

In addition, the display control unit 75b of the remote control device 70 switches and displays the second setting screen to the normal screen 73a on the display unit 73, and also displays the first execution timing information or second execution timing information to be performed most recently on the normal screen. 73a, and if the second execution timing information is displayed, information (graphic information) indicating that the second timer registration setting is being performed is also displayed.

At SC5, the operating side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote operating device 70 specifies the second execution timing information to be canceled.

The method of specifying the second execution timing information to be canceled is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, all of the second execution timing information set in the second timer registration is used as the second execution timing information to be canceled. Identify.

At SC6, the operation-side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote operation device 70 executes a second timer cancel setting to cancel the registration of the second execution timing information specified at SC5. Specifically, of the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information stored in the operating side setting table, the second execution timing information specified in SC5 is invalidated.

For example, when the above exemplary timer registration setting is performed, when the second cancel operation is accepted in SA3, the second execution timing information belonging to the first timer registration group and the second timer registration group is invalidated. (i.e., invalidates all second execution timing information).

Through such processing of SC5 and SC6, when at least one or more second opening/closing controls are repeatedly executed, all the second opening/closing controls can be canceled, and the second opening/closing control can be canceled according to the user's needs. It becomes possible to perform opening/closing control.

At SC7, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 performs output processing, and then ends the operating side second timer setting process.

Although the specific content of this output processing is arbitrary, in the embodiment, the second execution timing information canceled in SC5 is hidden on the normal screen 73a, and the second timer registration setting is performed. Hide the figure that indicates that the Furthermore, in the embodiment, when a predetermined operation is performed after the above output processing is performed, a recovery process for restoring the canceled second execution timing information (specifically, the second execution timing information in the operating side setting table, and redisplaying the second execution timing information on the normal screen 73a). Although this predetermined operation is arbitrary, it may be the same operation as the second cancel operation, for example.

Note that, in the embodiment, when canceling only a part of the second execution timing information set in the second timer registration, the following process is performed.

That is, if the operation input of the third cancel instruction information is accepted when the second timer registration setting is performed, first, only a part of the second execution timing information for which the second timer registration setting is performed is received. (Specifically, as will be described later, only the second execution timing information belonging to the timer registration group selected at the time of operation input of the third cancellation instruction information) is specified as the second execution timing information to be canceled. Here, the "third cancellation instruction information" is cancellation instruction information that instructs cancellation of the second opening/closing control, and is used to cancel only a part of the second execution timing information set in the second timer registration. This is cancellation instruction information. Further, the method of accepting the operation input of the third cancellation instruction information is arbitrary, but for example, after pressing and holding the first setting button 71d, the cancellation target is selected from among the timer registration groups set in the second timer registration setting. This includes selecting information indicating a timer registration group.

Next, a second timer cancel setting is executed to cancel the registration of the second execution timing information specified above. Specifically, of the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information stored in the operating side setting table, the specified second execution timing information is invalidated. For example, when the above example timer registration setting is performed, if the operation input of the third cancellation instruction information is accepted (the first timer registration group is selected as the cancellation target), the first timer registration group The second execution timing information to which it belongs is invalidated.

Next, in the output process, the canceled second execution timing information is hidden from the normal screen 73a. In the embodiment, after the above output process is performed, an operation input of cancellation instruction information instructing to cancel the cancellation of the second opening/closing control is received via the operation unit 71 of the remote control device 70. In this case, processing substantially similar to the above-mentioned restoration processing may be executed. Here, the method for accepting the operation input of the cancellation instruction information is arbitrary, but may be, for example, substantially the same method as the method of accepting the operation input for the second cancellation instruction information.

With such processing, when a plurality of second opening/closing controls are repeatedly executed, only some of the second opening/closing controls can be canceled. Therefore, compared to the case where all the second opening/closing controls that are repeatedly executed are canceled, some of the second opening/closing controls can be canceled more easily and quickly, and the usability of the opening/closing control system 50 can be improved. I can do it.

(Opening/closing process - operating side third timer setting process)
Next, the third timer setting process on the operating side at SA6 in FIG. 4 will be described. The third timer setting process on the operating side is a process for canceling only a part of the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information for which the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is set.

When the third timer setting process on the operating side is started, as shown in FIG. Among the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information, the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information to be canceled is specified.

Although the method for specifying the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information to be canceled is arbitrary, in the embodiment, if the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is performed (at least (in the case where one or more opening/closing controls are repeatedly executed), the first cancellation instruction of SA5 among the first execution timing information or second execution timing information in which the first timer registration setting or the second timer registration setting is set. First execution timing information or second execution timing information for canceling only a part of the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control performed after the information is inputted is specified. Specifically, first execution timing information corresponding to the first opening/closing control or second opening/closing control to be performed most recently from among the first execution timing information or second execution timing information stored in the operating side setting table. Alternatively, only the second execution timing information is specified.

In SD2, the operating side opening/closing control unit 75a of the remote control device 70 executes a third timer cancel setting to cancel the registration of the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information specified in SD1. Specifically, among the first execution timing information or second execution timing information stored in the operating side setting table, the first execution timing information or second execution timing information specified in SD1 is invalidated.

For example, when the above exemplary timer registration setting is performed, when the operation input of the first cancel instruction information is accepted in SA5, the most recent execution timing information set in the above exemplary timer registration setting is The first execution timing information belonging to the third timer registration group to be executed is invalidated.

With such processing, when at least one or more of the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control is repeatedly executed, it is possible to cancel only a part of the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control. Therefore, compared to canceling all of the first opening/closing control or second opening/closing control that are repeatedly executed, it is possible to easily and quickly cancel a part of the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control, The usability of the opening/closing control system 50 can be improved.

At SD3, the operating side control unit 75 of the remote operating device 70 performs output processing, and then ends the operating side third timer setting process.

Here, the specific content of this output processing is arbitrary, but in the embodiment, it is as follows. That is, on the normal screen 73a, the display control unit 75b of the remote control device 70 displays the first opening/closing information canceled in SD2 from among the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information stored in the operating side setting table. The first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) corresponding to the first opening/closing control (or second opening/closing control) to be executed next to the first opening/closing control (or second opening/closing control) is replaced with other first execution timing information ( or second execution timing information). With such a display, it is possible to present to the user the first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) corresponding to the first opening/closing control (or second opening/closing control) that is the next cancellation candidate, and This makes it easier for the user to visually recognize the execution timing information (or the second execution timing information).

Next, as shown in FIG. 8, in order to perform opening/closing control of the opening/closing body based on various information received from the remote control device 70 in the control device 100, the control-side control unit 104 of the control device 100 is operated by SE1. , SE2 processing is performed.

First, in SE1, the control-side control unit 104 of the control device 100 determines whether a timing (hereinafter referred to as "sixth processing timing") has arrived to perform processing in SE2, which will be described later.

Although the method for determining whether the sixth processing timing has arrived is arbitrary, in the embodiment, the method is determined based on whether the signal transmitted at SA8, SA10, SB4, SC4, etc. is received. If the signal is received, it is determined that the sixth processing timing has arrived, and if the signal is received, it is determined that the sixth processing timing has not arrived.

Then, the control side control unit 104 of the control device 100 waits until the sixth processing timing arrives (SE1, No), and when it is determined that the sixth processing timing has arrived (SE1, Yes), the control side control unit 104 shifts to SE2. Transition.

In SE2, the control-side opening/closing control unit 104a of the control device 100 executes opening/closing control of various opening/closing bodies based on information included in the signal received in SE1. After that, the process moves to SE1, and thereafter the processes of SE1 and SE2 are repeated in the same manner.

Here, although the specific processing content of the opening/closing control of the opening/closing body is arbitrary, it is as follows in the embodiment.

That is, regarding the opening/closing control of the opening/closing body based on the information transmitted in SB4 (hereinafter referred to as "first opening/closing control"), for example, when the opening/closing body 30 is located at the fully closed position, the opening/closing control is performed in SE1. When a signal including opening instruction information is received, the opening movement of the opening and closing body 30 is executed until the position detection unit 80 determines that the opening and closing body 30 has reached a predetermined upper limit position, and then the opening movement of the opening and closing body 30 is performed. stop. Next, when a signal including the closing instruction information is received in SE1, the opening/closing body 30 is moved to close until the position detection unit 80 determines that the opening/closing body 30 has reached a predetermined lower limit position, and then the opening/closing body 30 is closed. The closing movement of body 30 is stopped. Note that if the signal containing the closing instruction information is received earlier than the signal containing the opening instruction information in SE1, the opening/closing body 30 is moved to open after the closing movement of the opening/closing body 30 is performed.

Furthermore, regarding the opening/closing control of the opening/closing body based on the information transmitted in SC4 (hereinafter referred to as "second opening/closing control"), for example, when the opening/closing body 30 is located in the fully closed position, in SE1 When a signal including opening instruction information is received (that is, when the first opening/closing timing arrives), the opening/closing body 30 is moved to open, and when a signal including stop instruction information is received in SE1, the opening/closing body 30 is moved half-open. The opening movement of the opening/closing body 30 is stopped at this position. Next, when a signal including opening instruction information is received in SE1 (that is, when the second opening/closing timing arrives), until the position detection unit 80 determines that the opening/closing body 30 has reached the predetermined upper limit position. The opening movement of the opening and closing body 30 is executed, and then the opening movement of the opening and closing body 30 is stopped.

With such second opening/closing control, when the first opening/closing timing arrives, multistage opening/closing control can be performed based on the first movement time information received via the remote control device 70, and the switch can be changed from the fully closed position to the fully open position. Compared to the case where the opening/closing body 30 is opened/closed without stopping, the opening/closing body 30 can be opened/closed in accordance with the user's needs. Further, the user can set the first travel time information via the remote control device 70, and it becomes possible to set the half-open position according to the user's needs. In addition, since the opening/closing body 30 is moved to the half-open position based on the first movement time information received by the remote control device 70, for example, the synchronization setting between the receiving section 90 of the fitting 1 and the remote control device 70, etc. Special settings can be omitted or simplified, and the setting work when retrofitting the remote control device 70 to the existing fittings 1 can be performed simply and quickly. Furthermore, when the first opening/closing timing arrives, the opening/closing body 30 is opened and moved from the fully closed position to the half open position and stopped based on the first movement time information received by the remote control device 70, and then the opening/closing body 30 is opened. It can be moved to a fully open position, or a half-open position can be set according to the user's needs, for example in the early morning hours, making it easier to adjust the amount of solar radiation entering the building through the opening 2 to the amount according to the user's needs. .

Regarding the opening/closing control of the opening/closing body based on the information transmitted in SA8 (hereinafter referred to as "test opening/closing control"), for example, when the opening/closing body 30 is located in the fully closed position, the opening/closing body 30 is opened in SE1. When the signal including the instruction information is received, the opening/closing body 30 is moved to open. Thereafter, when a signal including stop instruction information is received at SE1, the opening movement of the opening/closing body 30 is stopped at the half-open position.

With such test opening/closing control, the user can easily visually check the state of the opening/closing body 30 located in the half-open position at timings other than the timing when the second opening/closing control is being performed, and the first movement time can be adjusted according to the user's needs. Easier to set information.

Regarding the opening/closing control of the opening/closing body based on the information transmitted in SA10 (hereinafter referred to as "operation opening/closing control"), for example, when a signal including opening instruction information is received in SE1, the opening/closing body 30 When a signal including the closing instruction information is received in SE1, the closing movement of the opening/closing body 30 is executed, and when a signal including stop instruction information is received in SE1, the opening/closing body 30 is opened. Stop moving or closing movement.

In the embodiment, it is assumed that the processes of SE1 and SE2 are repeatedly performed, and that the process of SE1 is executed in parallel even during the process of SE2. For this reason, for example, if SE1 receives the signal transmitted in SB4 while SE2 is performing opening/closing control (for example, operation opening/closing control) of the opening/closing body, the information contained in the signal (In other words, the second opening/closing control based on the information received later is given priority over the opening/closing control that is being executed first.) However, this is not limited to this, for example, if SE1 receives the signal transmitted in SB4 while the operation opening/closing control is being executed in SE2, and the second opening/closing control is executed in SE2. If the signal transmitted in SA10 is received at SE1 while (It may also include information indicating that the controlled signal is given priority over other controls). Note that when the second opening/closing control is stopped midway in SE2 and priority is given to operational opening/closing control, the remaining signals regarding the second opening/closing control (for example, the time of the second movement time information) are sent from the remote control device 70. (such as a signal containing opening instruction information that is sent after the remaining signal has elapsed), or even if the remaining signal is received, control based on the opening/closing instruction information included in the signal may not be performed. (In this case, for example, the remaining signal may include information indicating that the signal is related to the second opening/closing control). In addition, priority may be given to operation opening/closing control, not only to the second opening/closing control, but also to opening/closing controls other than the second opening/closing control (for example, first opening/closing control, test opening/closing control). This makes it possible to control the opening and closing of the opening and closing body 30 according to the situation of the people in the building, and it becomes easier to control the opening and closing of the opening and closing body 30 according to the needs of the people in the building.

Through the opening/closing processing as described above, it becomes possible to perform opening/closing control of the opening/closing body 30 according to the user's needs using the remote control device 70 and the opening/closing body side operating device 60.

(Effects of embodiment)
As described above, according to the embodiment, the remote control device 70 receives the operation input of the first travel time information, and when the operation input of the first travel time information is received via the remote control device 70, the opening/closing operation is performed. When the first opening/closing timing arrives when the body 30 is located at either the fully closed position or the fully open position, the opening/closing body 30 is opened/closed to the half open position based on the first movement time information, and then stopped. When the second opening/closing timing arrives after stopping, the opening/closing control means performs multi-stage opening/closing control to open/close the opening/closing body 30 to either the fully closed position or the fully open position, so that when the first opening/closing timing arrives, Multi-stage opening/closing control can be performed based on the first movement time information received via the remote control device 70, compared to the case where the opening/closing body 30 is moved from the fully closed position to the fully open position without stopping. Opening/closing control of the opening/closing body 30 can be performed according to the user's needs. In particular, the user can set the first movement time information via the remote control device 70, and it is possible to set the half-open position according to the user's needs. In addition, since the opening/closing body 30 is moved to the half-open position based on the first movement time information received by the remote control device 70, for example, the synchronization setting between the receiving section 90 of the fitting 1 and the remote control device 70, etc. Special settings can be omitted or simplified, and the setting work when retrofitting the remote control device 70 to the existing fittings 1 can be performed simply and quickly.

Further, when the first opening/closing timing arrives when the opening/closing body 30 is located at the fully closed position, the opening/closing control means moves the opening/closing body 30 to the half open position based on the first movement time information received by the remote control device 70. The opening/closing body 30 is moved open and then stopped, and when the second opening/closing timing arrives after the stop, multi-stage opening/closing control is performed in which the opening/closing body 30 is moved open to the fully open position, so that the half open position can be set according to the user's needs, for example, early in the morning. , it becomes easier to adjust the amount of solar radiation entering the building through the opening 2 to an amount that meets the needs of the user.

Further, when the opening/closing control means receives an operation input of opening/closing instruction information via the remote control device 70 while multi-stage opening/closing control is being performed, the opening/closing control means opens/closes the opening/closing body 30 based on the opening/closing instruction information. Since opening/closing control is given priority over multi-stage opening/closing control, opening/closing control of the opening/closing body 30 can be performed according to the situation of the people in the building, and opening/closing control of the opening/closing body 30 can be performed according to the needs of the people in the building. It becomes easier.

Further, when the opening/closing control means receives an operation input of test instruction information via the remote operating device 70 when the opening/closing body 30 is located at either the fully closed position or the fully open position, the opening/closing control means Since test opening/closing control is performed in which the opening/closing body 30 is opened/closed to the half-open position and then stopped based on the received first movement time information, the opening/closing body 30 is positioned at the half-open position at a timing other than the timing when the multi-stage opening/closing control is being performed. The user can easily visually check the state of the opening/closing body 30, and it becomes easy to set the first travel time information according to the user's needs.

Further, since the remote control device 70 accepts the operation input of the test instruction information when at least two or more buttons of the plurality of buttons constituting the remote control device 70 are pressed simultaneously for a predetermined period of time, It is possible to complicate the operation input of test instruction information, and it is possible to prevent erroneous or mischievous operations.

Further, since the first opening/closing timing is the time or time inputted via the remote control device 70, the first opening/closing timing can be set according to the usage situation, and the first opening/closing timing can be set according to the user's needs. It is possible to set the opening and closing timing.

(About opening/closing control system)
In the above embodiment, it has been explained that the opening/closing control system 50 includes the opening/closing body side operating device 60, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the opening/closing body side operating device 60 may be omitted.

Further, in the above embodiment, it has been explained that the configuration of the opening/closing body side operating device 60 is different from the configuration of the remote operating device 70, but the configuration is not limited to this, and may be the same as the configuration of the remote operating device 70, for example. .

(About operating means)

(About the display section and display control section)
In the embodiment described above, it has been described that the display section 73 and the display control section 75b are provided in the remote control device 70, but the display section 73 and the display control section 75b are not limited thereto, and may be provided in the control device 100, for example.

(About opening/closing control processing)
In the above embodiment, it has been described that the processes of SA7 and SA8 are executed, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, SA7 and SA8 may be omitted.

Further, in the above embodiment, it is explained that only the first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) that is performed most recently among the first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) is displayed on the normal screen 73a. However, it is not limited to this. For example, when a plurality of pieces of first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) are displayed on the normal screen 73a, the most recent first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) is displayed on the other The first execution timing information (or the second execution timing information) may be displayed in a more conspicuous manner. For example, when displaying a list of multiple pieces of first execution timing information, the most recent first execution timing information may be displayed at the top, or the color and size of the most recent first execution timing information may be displayed. The color, size, font, etc. may be displayed differently from the color, size, font, etc. of other first execution timing information. Alternatively, other first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) other than the most recent first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) may be displayed with priority. Alternatively, all of the first timer registration setting or the first execution timing information (or second execution timing information) for which the first timer registration has been set may be displayed on the normal screen 73a.

Further, in the above embodiment, the first execution timing information is displayed with priority on the normal screen 73a based on whether or not the first opening/closing control (or second opening/closing control) can be canceled. Although it has been explained that the display modes are different, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the same display mode may be used regardless of whether or not the cancellation is possible.

(About the first timer setting process on the operating side)
In the above embodiment, it has been explained that the recovery process is performed when a predetermined operation is performed or the operation input of the release instruction information is accepted after the output process is performed at SB7, but the invention is not limited to this. , for example, the restoration process may not be performed (the same applies even after other output processes are performed).

(About the third timer setting process on the operating side)
In the above embodiment, when the first execution timing information or the second execution timing information is canceled by the operation side third timer setting process, processing such as the recovery process of the operation side first timer setting process is not performed. However, it is not limited to this. For example, after a part of the first opening/closing control or second opening/closing control performed after the operation input of the third cancellation instruction information is canceled, the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control is canceled via the remote control device 70. When an operation input of cancellation instruction information instructing to cancel is received, cancellation of the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control that can be executed after the operation input of the cancellation instruction information may be canceled. Thereby, even if the first opening/closing control or the second opening/closing control is canceled by mistake, it is possible to easily recover.

(About the second opening/closing control)
In the above embodiment, it has been explained that the second opening/closing control moves the opening/closing body 30 from the fully closed position to one half-open position, stops it, and then moves it to the fully open position, but the invention is not limited to this. For example, the opening movement from the half-open position to the fully open position may be omitted. Alternatively, the opening/closing body 30 may be moved from the fully closed position to each of a plurality of half-open positions, stopped, and then moved to the fully open position. In this case, although the specific processing content of the second opening/closing control is arbitrary, for example, the opening/closing body 30 is moved to the half-open position based on any one of the plurality of pieces of first movement time information received by the remote control device 70. A cycle of opening and closing the opening and closing movement until a predetermined period of time has elapsed from the opening and closing movement may be repeated by the number of pieces of first movement time information. Further, in the test opening/closing control, the above cycle may be repeated based on any one of the plurality of pieces of first movement time information. Thereby, the opening/closing body 30 can be stopped at a plurality of mutually different half-open positions based on the plurality of first movement time information received by the remote control device 70, and a plurality of half-open positions can be set according to the user's needs. It becomes possible to set.

Further, in the above embodiment, it has been explained that the second opening/closing control moves the opening/closing body 30 from the fully closed position to the half open position, stops it, and then moves it to the fully open position, but the invention is not limited to this, for example. The opening/closing body 30 may be moved from a fully open position to a half open position, stopped, and then moved to a fully closed position. In this case, in the test opening/closing control, the opening is moved from the fully closed position to the half open position and then stopped.

(About the first opening/closing timing and second opening/closing timing)
In the embodiment described above, it has been explained that the first opening/closing timing and the second opening/closing timing are times (or times) input via the remote control device 70, but are not limited thereto. For example, it may be a time (or time) preset in the operating side storage unit 76 of the control device 100.

Further, in the above embodiment, it has been explained that the first opening/closing timing is the timing that coincides with the opening time of the second execution timing information, but the invention is not limited to this, and for example, the first opening/closing timing coincides with the opening time of the second execution timing information. It may be the timing when you don't do it. As an example, the first opening/closing timing is earlier than the opening time of the second execution timing information, the opening/closing body 30 has reached the half-open position at the opening time, and the opening/closing body 30 is moved to open based on the second movement time information.
