## Abstract

An intelligent switch control system (10) mainly includes a mobile information apparatus (101) and a wireless control apparatus (102). The wireless control apparatus (102) is assembled and arranged in a rotary switch (201) to detect a rotation angle or a rotation position of the rotary switch (201) to monitor a usage status of an equipment (20) having the rotary switch (201). The wireless control apparatus (102) detects a switch status information and sends the switch status information to the mobile information apparatus (101), so that the user can receive an instant status by the mobile information apparatus (101) and controls the rotary switch (201) from a far-end side by the mobile information apparatus (101).
