Abstract
An object is to reduce influence of erroneous operation in a monitoring system provided with a sensor. Lighting equipment is to be turned on by means of main power. A remote control device turns off the lighting equipment. A battery supplies reserve power. A sensor performs predetermined measurement by means of the main power. A detector detects whether or not supply of the main power has been stopped by operation of a predetermined switch, and generates a detection result. A communicator transmits the detection result by means of the reserve power in a case where the supply of the main power has been stopped.
Claims10
A monitoring system comprising:
- lighting equipment to be turned on by means of main power;
- a remote control device configured to turn off the lighting equipment;
- a battery configured to supply reserve power;
- a sensor configured to perform predetermined measurement by means of the main power;
- a detector configured to detect whether or not supply of the main power has been stopped by operation of a predetermined switch, and generate a detection result;
- and
- a communicator configured to transmit the detection result by means of the reserve power in a case where the supply of the main power has been stopped.
Electronic equipment comprising:
- a battery configured to supply reserve power;
- a sensor configured to perform predetermined measurement by means of main power supplied to lighting equipment;
- a detector configured to detect whether or not supply of the main power has been stopped by operation of a predetermined switch, and generate a detection result;
- and
- a communicator configured to transmit the detection result by means of the reserve power in a case where the supply of the main power has been stopped.
A monitoring system control method comprising:
- a lighting step of turning on lighting equipment by means of main power;
- a measurement step of performing predetermined measurement by a sensor by means of the main power;
- a detection step of detecting whether or not supply of the main power has been stopped by operation of a predetermined switch, and generating a detection result;
- and
- a communication step of transmitting the detection result by means of reserve power supplied from a battery in a case where the supply of the main power has been stopped.
