Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce wiring cost by a method wherein a signal is sent by using a connection line through which power is transmitted between indoor and outdoor units. CONSTITUTION:When a signal is sent from an outdoor control circuit 4 to an indoor control circuit, 3, a transmission signal is inputted from the outdoor control circuit 4 to an outdoor signal transmission circuit 7, which then sends a high frequency signal which has been modulated by the transmission signal onto a power line of connection lines A and B. An indoor signal receiving circuit 6 receives the signal doubled on the power line, demodulates, and then sends it to the indoor control cirtuit 3. On the contrary, when the signal is sent from the indoor control circuit 3 to the outdoor control circuit 4, the transmission signal is inputted from the indoor control circuit 3 to the indoor signal transmission circuit 5, which then sends a high frequency signal which has been modulated by the transmission signal onto the power line of connection lines A and B. An outdoor signal receiving circuit 8 receives the signal doubled on the power line, demodulates, and then sends it to the outdoor control circuit 4. Thus, both the power and signal transmissions can be realized by the same line.
