Remote controller managing device, control method, and computer program product

A control method performed by a remote controller managing device configured to output an operation instruction signal for controlling a target control device in accordance with operation instructions from a plurality of remote controllers, respectively, for controlling the target control device, the control method comprising:

• determining whether the operation instructions of the remote controllers conflict with each other when the operation instructions are issued by the remote controllers;
• and
• controlling the target control device so as to correspond to one of the operation instructions of one of the remote controllers with a higher priority order based on predetermined priority orders when the conflict determining module determines that the operation instructions conflict with each other.

A computer program product having a non-transitory computer readable medium including programmed instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a computer for controlling a remote controller managing device configured to output an operation instruction signal for controlling a target control device in accordance with operation instructions from a plurality of remote controllers, respectively, for controlling the target control device, cause the computer to perform:

• determining whether the operation instructions of the remote controllers conflict with each other when the operation instructions are issued by the remote controllers;
• and
• controlling the target control device so as to correspond to one of the operation instructions of one of the remote controllers with a higher priority order based on predetermined priority orders when the conflict determining module determines that the operation instructions conflict with each other.
