The surround sound is received through the microphone 320 (S200). As described above, the ambient sound may be a background noise in a specific space in which the control system 300 is installed, or may be a specific sound sent from the control system 300.

Then, the control system 300 receives the surround sound reception results from the plurality of mobile terminals through the wireless communication unit 310 (S210). Here, the plurality of mobile terminals may be mobile terminals located in a space where the control system 300 is installed. The control system 300 may receive the data through short-range wireless communication with the plurality of mobile terminals.

Then, the controller 370 analyzes the received data to determine that the plurality of mobile terminals are located in the same space as the control system 300 (S220). Then, the control unit 370 changes the reception modes of the plurality of mobile terminals to a predetermined mode (S230).

Here, the predetermined mode may be determined according to the same space. For example, if the same space is a space that needs to be quiet, the controller 370 can change the reception mode of the plurality of terminals to a vibration mode or the like. However, in some cases, the controller 370 may change the reception mode of the mobile terminals to the bell sound mode.
