At 901, the personal ID is read from the card, and ID discrimination is performed. When the collation result is entry permission, the controller 1902 issues an instruction for lighting the lighting device 1903 and an instruction for unlocking the door to the electric lock 1904.

Further, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 04-148302, a device for controlling lighting equipment by key input from a telephone in the room has been devised.

FIG. 20 shows the structure of the above-mentioned lighting control device. In FIG. 20, reference numeral 2001 is an indoor telephone, and 2002 is an electronic private branch exchange.
Reference numeral 3 denotes a central control device that controls the lighting device 2004.

The operation of the lighting control device configured as described above will be described below. A user present in the room inputs a key for application for turning on / off the light using the telephone 2001. The input data, via the electronic private branch exchange 2002, identifies the location of the telephone. Subsequently, the telephone 2001 inputs the lighting / lighting-off time by key input, and the current lighting / lighting-out state is compared, and the central control unit 2
The lighting device 2004 is controlled by 003.

[0008]

However, since the control range of the illumination of the above-mentioned conventional patents can be controlled only in units of rooms, even when the number of people in the room is small, all the lights in the room are turned on. There is a problem that wasteful power is used.

In addition, since the location of the telephone and the location of the illumination are associated with each other in controlling the illumination from the room, it can only be used when the user is in the room.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art. By storing personal position information and personal schedule information in a card, it is possible to control the lighting equipment on an individual basis, and An object of the present invention is to provide a lighting control device that controls a user without being aware of turning on / off a light caused by movement of a person.

[0011]

In order to achieve the above object, an illumination control device of the present invention comprises a reading device for reading data stored in a card, and a data management device for managing data from the reading device. In the data management device, the reading device I / F unit that receives the data from the reading device, the data analysis unit that analyzes the configuration of the transmitted data, and the individual start / stop designated position are used as the position information of the lighting device. A lighting equipment real address acquisition unit for converting, a lighting equipment management device I / F unit for transmitting the position information to the lighting equipment management device, and a lighting control I / F
It is provided with a lighting device management device that receives position information from a unit and controls the lighting device at a corresponding position.

Secondly, the above invention is provided with a lighting control right judging section for judging the ownership of the lighting control right based on the judgment of the entrance management device for judging the permission to enter the room.

Thirdly, in the above first invention, a moving time calculation for calculating a moving time between a reading device installed in each place in the building and an individual start / stop designated position stored in the card is calculated. Section, and a timer management section that creates a waiting state for calculation time processing.

Fourthly, in the first invention, a schedule analysis unit for analyzing personal schedule data stored in advance in the card, a schedule storage unit for storing the analyzed schedule data in a schedule table, and a storage unit A schedule timer management unit for issuing an instruction to start and stop at a designated time and a designated location according to the created schedule data is provided.

[0015]

With the above arrangement, the present invention can automatically start / stop the lighting device at the specified position by reading the individual start / stop specified position stored in the card.

Further, by determining the moving time between the two points by the individual start / stop designated position and the position of the reading device, the power consumption between them can be suppressed.

Further, by reading the schedule data stored in the card, it is possible to perform the lighting control according to the individual schedule pattern without the user being aware of turning on / off.

Next, the procedure for analyzing schedule data will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The schedule analysis unit that has received the personal start / stop designated position and the personal schedule data (step 1601) refers to the date data stored at the beginning of the transmitted personal schedule data, and determines whether the date is today (step 1602). ). If the date is today, the schedule data is converted into a bit string for each designated position for personal departure and departure (step 1603). The bit string is for each individual start / stop position, for every fixed time (in the embodiment, every 15 minutes).
The ON / OFF state of is represented by 1/0. The schedule data converted into the bit string is transmitted to the schedule storage unit 1302 (step 1604). If the date data is not today, an error is returned to the data structure analysis unit 112 (step 1605).

FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the schedule storage unit 1302. Next, the procedure for storing schedule data in the schedule table 1403 will be described using the flowchart of FIG. Receives schedule data as a bit string (step 170
1) The schedule storage unit 1302 that has performed 1) stores it in the schedule table for each individual start / stop designated position. When storing, the bits are compared every storage destination time (step 17).
02). Bit on schedule table 1303 is 0
If the bit sent in is 0, schedule table 1
The value of 303 is not rewritten (step 1703). When the bit on the schedule table 1303 is 0 and the transmitted bit is 1, the schedule table 1303 is set to 1
Is stored (step 1704). When the bit on the schedule table 1303 is 1 and the transmitted bit is 1, the value in the schedule table 1303 is not rewritten. (Step 1705) This operation is repeated for each time unit delimited by the schedule table 1303.

FIG. 18 shows the schedule timer management section 13
It is a flow chart which shows a processing procedure of 04. Next, a procedure for reading schedule data from the schedule table 1303 will be described with reference to FIG. The schedule timer management unit 1304 uses the schedule table 13
Schedule table 13 for each hour separated by 03
Refer to 03. When referring, the bit at the reference time and the bit at the time immediately before the reference time are compared (step 1801). If the bits are the same, the process proceeds to the comparison of the bits at the individual start / stop designated position (step 1802). If the bit has changed from 0 to 1, the individual start / stop designated position and the lighting device lighting command are transmitted from the schedule table 1303 to the lighting device actual address acquisition unit 113 (step 1803). If the bit has changed from 1 to 0, similarly, the scheduled start / stop position and the lighting device turn-off command are transmitted from the schedule table 1303 to the lighting device real address acquisition unit 113 (step 180).
4). These operations are repeated for each individual start / stop designated position existing on the table.

In the following, similar to the procedure shown in the first embodiment, the designated position for individual start / stop is converted into the real address.

The real address and the lighting and extinguishing commands received by the lighting equipment management device I / F section 115 are transmitted to the lighting equipment management device 110. Lighting device management apparatus 110
Turns on and off the lighting device having the real address transmitted from the lighting device management device I / F 115.
