(4) 1276045 [Embodiment] The configuration of an embodiment of the collective gantry according to the first aspect of the invention is as shown in the drawings, and its use state is as shown in Fig. 2. In this example, the collection type gantry has three slots (the first slot S1, the second slot S2, and the third slot S3), and one searchable car selection remote controller can be installed in each slot. 2, together with g 3 units. The remote controllers are connected to the respective slots SI·S2·S3 to connect the connectors C1 · C2 · C3. The data transmission side of the update data of the music index database is basically a karaoke apparatus. However, as shown in FIG. 2, a search-type Karaoke κ selection song that receives an update is installed on the remote controller connection connector C1. The collective gantry 1 of the remote controller 2 may also be a transmitter of the updated data. In order to connect with the transmitter of the update data, a source connection connector C4 is provided on the collection type gantry 1. Further, in order to continue with the other collective type gantry 1 for the recipient of the updated material, the target splicing connector C5 is provided on the collective gantry 1. The data communication carried out by chasing some of the connectors C 1 to C 5 is two-way communication according to the RS- 23 2C serial interface specification. Each of the connectors C 1 to C5 is connected to the switching circuit 4 by internal wiring (data communication wiring). Among the wirings connecting the source connection connector C4 and the switching circuit 4, and the wiring connecting the target connection connector C5 and the switching circuit 4, there are buffer amplifiers 6 for performing voltage conversion and waveform adjustment. In the switching circuit 4, the respective terminals of the respective connectors C1 to C5 are set to 埠P1 to P5. The switching circuit 4 operates according to the switching control signal -8-(5) 1276045, and the switching control signal is applied to the control 埠Pcont ' from the signal line 5 of the remote controller connecting the connector c 1 connected to the i-th slot s1. The remote controller connected to the first slot S1 is connected to the connector P1 of the connector C1, and is selectively connected to any one of the other four ports P2 to P5 to constitute a circuit. The remote controller connector C1 · C2 · C3 further includes a pin corresponding to the above-mentioned signal line 5 of the connector C1, and a pin, which is connected to the internal wiring of the data communication connection of the connection switching circuit 4. The output of the charging circuit (omitted from the drawing) hidden in the gantry 1 is supplied to the charging circuit pin of the remote controller 2, and the remote controller 2 itself is recognized. The remote controller 2 should be installed in the slot S1 · S2 · S3 Which of the identification symbols are pinned and so on. As shown in Fig. 3, in the internal circuit of the remote controller 2 side connected to the respective remote controller connector C1 · C2 · C3, the two lines corresponding to the two identification symbol pins are lifted (Pull Up). The resistor is connected to the power source, and is configured by reading the voltage level (logical level) of the two lines (set to identify the read line) by the central processing unit (microcomputer) of the remote controller 2. Therefore, the identification read line in the remote controller 2 of the connector c 1 of the first slot S 1 is displayed, and the 2-bit logical signal "〇〇" is displayed. In addition, the connector C2 connected to the second slot S1 and the identification read line in the remote control 2 connected to the connection slot C3 of the third slot S1 show a 2-bit logic signal "1 0" . In addition, the identification read line in the remote controller 2 not installed in any slot displays a 2-bit logic signal "1". With such a means of identification, the search-type karaoke 0K song selection remote control 2 - 9- (6) The built-in computer of 1276045 can not only identify whether the remote control 2 itself is installed in the slot of the collective gantry 1, but also can be recognized when it is installed in the slot. Whether the position is in the first slot S 1. The search-type karaoke selection remote control 2 installed in the first slot S1 can recognize the installation and operate as shown in the flowchart of FIG. (The remote controller is called the parent remote controller.) The searchable karaoke song selection remote control 2 installed in the second slot S2 or the third slot S 3 can recognize the installation and is the fifth. The schematic flow chart shown in the figure acts (called the remote controller as a sub-remote controller). The parent remote controller 2 transmits a signal to the control 埠Pcont of the switching circuit 4, and first connects 埠P1 to 埠P4. The connector C 1 connected to the female remote controller 2 is connected to the source connection connector C4. Here, as shown in the use example (A) of Fig. 2, Kara The 0K device 3 is connected to the source connection connector C4. The parent remote controller 2 communicates with the karaoke device 3, and receives the release number of the music index database, and the release number of the music index database held by the parent remote controller 2 In comparison, it is judged whether or not the database update processing is required. In the case where the database update is performed, the parent remote controller 2 communicates with the karaoke device 3, receives the update data, and performs necessary processing. Next, the parent remote controller 2 performs Switching control of the switching circuit 4, and connecting P1 to 埠P5. Thereby, the connector C1 connecting the female remote controller 2 is connected to the target connecting connector C5. In the use example (A) of Fig. 2 The target connection connector C5 does not have any connection. In the use case (B) and the use case (C), the target connection connector C5 -10- (7) 1276045 of the first frame is connected to the second frame. The source is connected to the connector C4. The female remote controller 2 attempts to communicate via the target connection connector C5, and confirms whether there is a response. In the use case (B) and the use case (C), the parent remote controller of the first stand 2 (referred to as the first female remote control) The response from the parent remote controller 2 (referred to as the second parent remote controller) from the second gantry is detected. In this case, the first female remote controller listens to the second female remote control from among the second female remote controllers that responded. The issue number of the music index database held by the device is compared with the issue number held by itself, and if the issue number of the second parent remote controller is older, the update data is transferred from the first parent remote controller to the second The parent remote controller updates the database according to the received update data. Next, the parent remote controller 2 performs switching control of the switching circuit 4, and connects P1 to 埠P2. The connector C1 of the female remote controller 2 is connected to the connector C2 which may be connected to the child remote controller. The parent remote control 2 attempts to communicate via the connector C2 and confirms whether there is a response. If the sub remote controller 2 is connected to the connector C2, the release number can be heard from the sub remote controller 2, and if the issue number is older, the update data is transferred from the parent remote controller to the sub remote controller. The sub remote control receives this to update the database. Next, the parent remote controller 2 performs switching control of the switching circuit 4, and connects P1 to 埠P3. Thereby, the connector C1 which is connected to the parent remote controller 2 is connected to the connector C3 which may be connected to the child remote controller. The parent remote control 2 attempts to communicate via the connector C2 and confirms whether there is a response. If the sub remote controller 2 is connected to the connector C3, since the answer should be 11 - (8) 1276045, the issue number can be heard from the sub remote controller 2, and if the issue number is older, the update data will be updated from the parent remote control. The device is forwarded to the sub remote controller, and the sub remote controller receives this to update the database. [Effects of the Invention] The collective type gantry of the present invention has only a plurality of connectors and a switching circuit for performing switching between the respective connectors, and is configured as a data communication function, so that the configuration can be extremely simple.
