However, if a transmission sound is generated even when the above-mentioned state setting signal is transmitted, it is inconvenient because the transmission sound is frequently generated even if the user does not perform any operation. Therefore, if the state setting signal is transmitted before that, that is, if the identification signal is attached to the head, it is possible to recognize that the transmission signal is the state setting signal based on the identification signal. It can be processed so that no sound is produced.

Therefore, according to the second aspect of the invention, the operation signal is transmitted by attaching the identification signal to the front and the rear. According to the present invention, the operation signal is transmitted during the transmission of the state setting signal. Even in the case of transmission, it is possible to perform processing so that a transmission sound is generated when the operation signal is transmitted, and thus it is possible to reliably notify the user that the operation signal has been transmitted.
