Abstract
There is provided a remote control wiring mechanism, which makes it easy to construct a system by facilitating a connection work and treatment of members constructing the system. A main unit includes signal terminals connected to signal lines and power supply terminals to supply power for driving a relay. A relay unit having a relay is detachably connected to a relay socket of the main unit and is integrally coupled to the main unit. When a transmission signal including on-off information of a switch is received through the signal lines, the on-off state of the switch is reflected in the switching of the relay.
Claims17
A remote control wiring mechanism in which switching of a relay is remotely controlled by an on-off switch by transmitting a transmission signal including on-off information of the switch through a transmission line, the remote control wiring mechanism comprising:
- a main unit having a signal input and output unit connected to the transmission line for transmitting the on-off information of the switch;
- and
- a relay unit having a relay, the relay being attachable and detachable from a relay receiving part of the main unit, wherein when the relay is attached to the relay receiving part, the relay is integrally and electrically connected to the main unit,
- wherein the main unit has a power supply circuit that supplies power for driving the relay, and switches the relay unit having the relay received in the relay receiving part in accordance with the on-off information of the switch received through the signal input and output unit.
A remote control wiring mechanism in which a relay is remotely controlled by an on-off switch by transmission, along a transmission line, of a transmission signal which includes on-off information of the switch, the remote control wiring mechanism comprising:
- a main unit having a signal input and output unit connected to the transmission line for transmitting the on-off information of the switch;
- and
- a relay unit including a relay, the relay being attachable and detachable from a relay receiver of the main unit, such that when the relay is attached to the relay receiver, the relay is electrically connected to the main unit,
- wherein the main unit includes a power supply circuit configured to supply power for driving the relay, and switches the relay unit, having the relay received in the relay receiver, in accordance with the on-off information of the switch, received through the signal input and output unit, the remote control wiring mechanism remotely monitoring and controlling a system comprising a monitoring unit including the switch, a control unit configured to control a load, and the transmission unit having a control table in which the monitoring unit corresponds to the control unit by addresses, the transmission units remotely controlling the load by transmitting the transmission signal, including the on-off information of the switch from the monitoring unit to the control unit in accordance with the control table, the transmission unit being provided in the main unit, and the control table includes a correspondence between the switch and the relay.
