The operator makes a call using the telephone F1 from outside the home (501) and connects the telephone to a public telephone line (502).
I want to output a voice that says ``I'm currently out.'' 503)
Residential PIN number (EX"1""2""3"'11 *
504), when the PIN is not entered (incorrect), the telephone T1 is turned off to disconnect the public telephone line), gas appliances malfunction 43, 44, To prevent mischief by operators other than residents (505).When the password is entered, it is determined whether the security check is 0 or not (506), that is, an abnormality is detected from the fire sensor S1, disaster prevention sensor $2, and gas leak sensor S3. Determine whether a signal is input.When the security check is not 0, (519
), and when the security check is 0, send a voice saying "Please" to the phone T1 (5G?)
, Next, the appliance number of at least one appliance operation among the gas appliances 43 and 44 (EX ``O''``4'')
Make a judgment (508) and proceed to (518) when the appliance number is not input.
When inputting , gas appliance 43.44 (7) ON (E

Or send the voice message "Anomaly has occurred" to the telephone T1 (511), then check the security again O.
If the security check is not 0, proceed to 519), and when the security check is 0, it is determined whether the gas cutoff valve 3 is open or not (513). At this time, an ignition command is output to the gas appliances 43 and 44, and a voice saying "Valve open, ignition possible" is transmitted to the telephone 1 (514), and appliance operation is started. When the appliance number is correct, a pulse signal is output to the gas appliance and the gas appliance starts operating. At this time, for example, when starting the operation of gas appliances in the bath, 1
A voice saying "We will start preparing for the bath" is transmitted to the telephone T1 (515). When the valve is not open, a voice saying ``Valve open, ignition possible'' is sent to the telephone T1 (516), and then it is determined whether or not the telephone T1 is off the hook (517). 505), and when the phone is not hung up, (
508). For (518), enter the security code (EX fire sensor: "0""1"*", security sensor: 0"゛2"11 * #j, gas leak sensor: "0""3"*") If the security code has not been entered, (505)
Proceed to. When the security code is input, the output signal of the sensor is inputted (519), then the voice message "No abnormality" or "Anomaly has occurred" is transmitted to the telephone T1 (520), and then the process goes to (517).

Control may be performed to shut off the gas supply to the house by turning on the gas cutoff valve 3 in response to an abnormality input from the fire sensor S1 and the gas leakage sensor S3.

As a function to prevent malfunctions, a) If there is no input for 15 seconds or more during any operation, the public line will be disconnected (OFF).

口) All actions will not be executed unless the "'*" key is input at the end of each action.

c) In all cases, if you enter a password or appliance number other than the one set twice, the public line will be turned off.

The gas cutoff valve 3 may be turned off by input from outside. In this case, the flowchart is the same as the equipment operation flowchart.
