開關裝置及負載控制系統 Switching device and load control system

本發明，係關於進行自電源對負載供電之開/關等之開關裝置、及使用該開關裝置控制負載之負載控制系統。The present invention relates to a switching device that performs on/off of power supply from a power source, and a load control system that controls the load using the switching device.

作為習知例，例示以構成專利文獻1所記載之照明裝置之操作部。此習知例（操作部），包含： 第1開關部，輸出光源之點亮及熄滅之指示； 第2開關部，輸出光源之恢復指示； 安裝面板；及 安裝具。 第1開關部，以所謂機械式開關構成。另一方面，第2開關部，以觸控開關（觸控面板）構成。又，第1開關部及第2開關部，安裝於安裝面板。且安裝面板，以安裝具安裝於牆壁。As an example of the operation, the operation unit of the illumination device described in Patent Document 1 is exemplified. The conventional example (operation unit) includes: a first switch unit, an instruction to turn on and off the output light source; a second switch unit to return an output light source; an installation panel; and an installation tool. The first switch unit is constituted by a so-called mechanical switch. On the other hand, the second switch unit is constituted by a touch switch (touch panel). Further, the first switch unit and the second switch unit are attached to the mounting panel. And install the panel to mount the fixture to the wall.

專利文獻1所記載之習知例中，操作第1開關部，負載（照明器具之光源）即切換為自點亮而熄滅及自熄滅而點亮中任一者，操作第2開關部，負載之明亮度（調光位準）即變化。 [先前技術文獻] [專利文獻]In the conventional example described in Patent Document 1, the first switch unit is operated, and the load (the light source of the lighting fixture) is switched to be self-illuminated, turned off, and turned off, and the second switch unit is operated. The brightness (dimming level) changes. [Prior Technical Literature] [Patent Literature]

[發明所欲解決之課題][Problems to be solved by the invention]

又，有時2個開關裝置以信號線連接，各開關裝置，不僅可控制直接連接之負載，亦經由該信號線對其他開關裝置傳送控制信號，藉此，控制直接連接其他開關裝置之負載。Further, the two switching devices may be connected by signal lines, and each of the switching devices may control not only the directly connected load but also the other switching devices via the signal line, thereby controlling the load directly connected to the other switching devices.

上述情形下，各開關裝置，包含： 第1操作開關，用來使直接連接其本身之負載開/關；及 第2操作開關，用來發送該控制信號。In the above case, each switching device includes: a first operation switch for causing a load to be directly connected to itself to be turned on/off; and a second operation switch for transmitting the control signal.

然而，第1操作開關與第2操作開關，其相對於開關裝置之框體之配置固定。例如，第1操作開關與第2操作開關縱向排列配置於框體前面時，操作各開關裝置中配置於相同位置（例如，上側之位置）之第1操作開關之際，會控制完全不同之負載，故就使用者而言使用方便性不佳。However, the first operation switch and the second operation switch are fixed to the arrangement of the casing of the switch device. For example, when the first operation switch and the second operation switch are arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction of the casing, when the first operation switch disposed at the same position (for example, the upper position) of each of the switch devices is operated, a completely different load is controlled. Therefore, it is not convenient for the user to use.

鑒於上述課題，本發明之目的，在於實現使用方便性之提升。 [解決課題之手段]In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to achieve an improvement in usability. [Means for solving the problem]

The remaining pair of attachment claws 125 are provided on the release piece 126 (see FIG. 3) provided on the right side surface of the casing 12. The releasing piece 126 is formed on the right side wall of the casing 12 so as to be deflectable in the left-right direction. That is, the casing 10 is attached to the mounting frame 9 using the three pairs of mounting claws 125.

安裝框9，以合成樹脂材料，呈具有安裝用窗孔90之矩形框狀形成。安裝框9，包含：沿著長邊方向（上下方向）之一對縱片91，與連結一對縱片91兩端彼此之一對橫片92（參照圖1）。亦即，一對縱片91及一對橫片92所包圍之空間係窗孔90。The mounting frame 9 is formed of a synthetic resin material in a rectangular frame shape having a mounting window 90. The mounting frame 9 includes a pair of longitudinal fins 91 along one of the longitudinal direction (up-and-down direction) and a pair of webs 92 that are connected to each other at both ends of the pair of vertical fins 91 (see FIG. 1). That is, the space surrounded by the pair of vertical sheets 91 and the pair of horizontal sheets 92 is a window opening 90.

一對縱片91，設置複數（圖示例中分別為8個）安裝孔93。上述之3對安裝爪125***且勾住此等安裝孔93。亦即，一對安裝爪125分別***一對安裝孔93，藉此，以框體10之前端部插通窗孔90之狀態，開關本體1安裝於安裝框9（參照圖1及圖5）。A pair of vertical sheets 91 are provided with a plurality of mounting holes 93 (eight in the illustrated example). The above-mentioned three pairs of mounting claws 125 are inserted and hooked up to the mounting holes 93. In other words, the pair of attachment claws 125 are respectively inserted into the pair of attachment holes 93, whereby the switch body 1 is attached to the mounting frame 9 in a state in which the front end portion of the frame body 10 is inserted through the window hole 90 (refer to FIGS. 1 and 5). .

且一對橫片92，於長邊方向（左右方向）之中央，有窩頭螺釘（未經圖示）插通之螺釘插通孔920貫通。且於一對橫片92，螺釘插通孔920之外側中長邊方向之中央設置螺孔921。惟，一對橫片92，自各縱片91之長邊方向之兩端朝前方突出（參照圖1）。Further, the pair of horizontal pieces 92 are penetrated by a screw insertion hole 920 through which a socket head screw (not shown) is inserted in the center of the longitudinal direction (left-right direction). Further, a screw hole 921 is provided in the center of the long side direction of the outer side of the screw insertion hole 920 in the pair of horizontal pieces 92. However, the pair of horizontal pieces 92 protrude forward from both ends in the longitudinal direction of each of the vertical pieces 91 (see Fig. 1).

安裝框9，例如，其一對橫片92接觸設於牆壁之嵌入孔之周邊，而安裝於埋入該牆壁之開關盒（未經圖示）。亦即，插通各橫片92之螺釘插通孔920之2條螺栓（未經圖示），螺合固定於開關盒之螺孔。惟，未埋入開關盒時，安裝框9，使用自以往即周知之夾持金屬件（未經圖示）固定於壁板。The mounting frame 9, for example, a pair of horizontal pieces 92 are in contact with the periphery of the insertion hole provided in the wall, and are attached to a switch case (not shown) embedded in the wall. That is, two bolts (not shown) that are inserted into the screw insertion holes 920 of the respective horizontal pieces 92 are screwed and fixed to the screw holes of the switch case. However, when the switch box is not embedded, the mounting frame 9 is fixed to the wall using a clamp metal member (not shown) which has been conventionally known.

且罩殼12之前壁中，左右兩側之端部呈階梯狀形成。且於該端部中上下方向之大致中央，分別形成凹部128（參照圖3及圖8）。亦即，設於殼體22之2個安裝片220之勾爪221分別勾住此等2個凹部128之前端緣，藉此，操作單元2以可裝卸之方式裝設於開關本體1（參照圖1及圖9）。Further, in the front wall of the casing 12, the ends of the left and right sides are formed in a stepped shape. A concave portion 128 is formed at substantially the center in the vertical direction of the end portion (see FIGS. 3 and 8). In other words, the hooks 221 of the two mounting pieces 220 of the housing 22 respectively hook the front edges of the two recesses 128, whereby the operating unit 2 is detachably mounted to the switch body 1 (refer to Figure 1 and Figure 9).

在此，操作單元2裝設於開關本體1之際，操作單元2之第2連接器28，與開關本體1之第1連接器56電性及機械地連接。亦即，第2連接器28之8條接觸件280，各別***於第1連接器56之前面開口之8個***口560，分別與設於第1連接器56之內部之8個接觸件個別且電性地連接（參照圖7）。且設於操作單元2之殼體22（基底23）之一對保護壁235，***設於開關本體1之框體10（罩殼12）之插通孔124（參照圖6）。因此，即使對操作單元2施加撞擊力等外力，因第1連接器56及第2連接器28由一對保護壁235保護，故該外力難以施加，藉此可防止此等連接器28、56破損等。Here, when the operation unit 2 is mounted on the switch body 1, the second connector 28 of the operation unit 2 is electrically and mechanically connected to the first connector 56 of the switch body 1. That is, the eight contact members 280 of the second connector 28 are respectively inserted into the eight insertion ports 560 which are open in front of the first connector 56, and the eight contact members provided inside the first connector 56, respectively. Individually and electrically connected (see Figure 7). Further, one of the casings 22 (bases 23) of the operation unit 2 is inserted into the protective wall 235, and the insertion holes 124 (see FIG. 6) provided in the casing 10 (the casing 12) of the switch body 1 are inserted. Therefore, even if an external force such as an impact force is applied to the operation unit 2, since the first connector 56 and the second connector 28 are protected by the pair of protective walls 235, the external force is hard to be applied, whereby the connectors 28 and 56 can be prevented. Damaged, etc.

其次，參照圖10，同時詳細說明關於本實施形態之開關裝置之動作。Next, the operation of the switch device according to the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to Fig. 10 .

The other transmitter WB (hereinafter referred to as a second transmitter) is registered in the second switching device SB, and transmits a wireless signal using radio waves as a communication medium to the second switching device SB. Further, the wireless signals transmitted from the respective transmitters WA and WB include control data for controlling the illumination loads 4A and 4B (lighting, extinguishing, or dimming), respectively, and are inherent to each of the transmitters WA and WB. Identify information.

在此，第1開關裝置SA之操作單元2，包含沿上下排列之2個操作區域，包含：作為第1操作開關之操作區域201A，與作為第2操作開關之操作區域202A。且第2開關裝置SB之操作單元2，包含沿上下排列之2個操作區域，包含：作為第1操作開關之操作區域201B，與作為第2操作開關之操作區域202B。例如，第1開關裝置SA中，上側之操作區域（以下，稱為第1操作區域201A。）經觸控操作後，操作單元2，即輸出：顯示第1操作區域201A經觸控操作之第1操作信號。第1開關裝置SA之開關本體1中，接受第1操作信號之控制部5，使開關元件50為ON（或OFF），藉此，點亮（或熄滅）第1照明負載4A。Here, the operation unit 2 of the first switching device SA includes two operation regions arranged up and down, and includes an operation region 201A as a first operation switch and an operation region 202A as a second operation switch. Further, the operation unit 2 of the second switching device SB includes two operation regions arranged in the vertical direction, and includes an operation region 201B as a first operation switch and an operation region 202B as a second operation switch. For example, in the first switching device SA, after the touch operation is performed on the upper operation region (hereinafter referred to as the first operation region 201A), the operation unit 2 outputs, that is, displays the first operation region 201A via the touch operation. 1 operation signal. In the switch main body 1 of the first switching device SA, the control unit 5 that receives the first operation signal turns the switching element 50 ON (or OFF), thereby turning on (or extinguishing) the first illumination load 4A.

同樣地，第2開關裝置SB中，上側之操作區域（以下，稱為第1操作區域201B。）經觸控操作後，操作單元2，即輸出：顯示第1操作區域201B經觸控操作之第1操作信號。第2開關裝置SB之開關本體1中，接受第1操作信號之控制部5，使開關元件50為ON（或OFF），藉此，點亮（或熄滅）第2照明負載4B。Similarly, in the second switching device SB, after the upper operation area (hereinafter referred to as the first operation area 201B) is touch-operated, the operation unit 2 outputs, that is, the first operation area 201B is touch-operated. The first operation signal. In the switch main body 1 of the second switching device SB, the control unit 5 that receives the first operation signal turns the switching element 50 ON (or OFF), thereby turning on (or extinguishing) the second illumination load 4B.

且第1開關裝置SA中，下側之操作區域（以下，稱為第2操作區域202A。）經觸控操作後，操作單元2，即輸出：顯示第2操作區域202A經觸控操作之第2操作信號。第1開關裝置SA之開關本體1中，接受第2操作信號之控制部5，將針對第2照明負載4B之控制信號，自信號傳送部55經由信號線101朝第2開關裝置SB傳送（發送）。In the first switching device SA, after the touch operation is performed on the lower operation area (hereinafter referred to as the second operation area 202A), the operation unit 2 outputs, that is, the second operation area 202A is touch-operated. 2 operation signal. In the switch main body 1 of the first switching device SA, the control unit 5 that receives the second operation signal transmits (transmits) the control signal for the second illumination load 4B from the signal transmission unit 55 to the second switching device SB via the signal line 101. ).

第2開關裝置SB中，信號傳送部55，接收「經由信號線101自第1開關裝置SA傳送之該控制信號」，對控制部5輸出。第2開關裝置SB之控制部5，根據自信號傳送部55接受之控制信號，使開關元件50為ON（或OFF），藉此，點亮（或熄滅）第2照明負載4B。In the second switching device SB, the signal transmission unit 55 receives the "control signal transmitted from the first switching device SA via the signal line 101", and outputs it to the control unit 5. The control unit 5 of the second switching device SB turns the switching element 50 ON (or OFF) based on the control signal received from the signal transmission unit 55, thereby turning on (or extinguishing) the second illumination load 4B.

且第2開關裝置SB中，下側之操作區域（以下，稱為第2操作區域202B。）經觸控操作後，操作單元2，即輸出：顯示第2操作區域202B經觸控操作之第2操作信號。第2開關裝置SB之開關本體1中，接受第2操作信號之控制部5，將針對第1照明負載4A之控制信號，自信號傳送部55經由信號線101朝第1開關裝置SA傳送（發送）。In the second switching device SB, after the touch operation is performed on the lower operation area (hereinafter referred to as the second operation area 202B), the operation unit 2 outputs, that is, the second operation area 202B is touch-operated. 2 operation signal. In the switch main body 1 of the second switching device SB, the control unit 5 that receives the second operation signal transmits (transmits) the control signal for the first illumination load 4A from the signal transmission unit 55 to the first switching device SA via the signal line 101. ).

第1開關裝置SA中，信號傳送部55，接收「經由信號線101自第2開關裝置SB傳送之該控制信號」，對控制部5輸出。第1開關裝置SA之控制部5，根據自信號傳送部55接受之控制信號，使開關元件50為ON（或OFF），藉此，點亮（或熄滅）第1照明負載4A。In the first switching device SA, the signal transmission unit 55 receives the "control signal transmitted from the second switching device SB via the signal line 101", and outputs it to the control unit 5. The control unit 5 of the first switching device SA turns the switching element 50 ON (or OFF) based on the control signal received from the signal transmission unit 55, thereby turning on (or extinguishing) the first illumination load 4A.

各開關裝置SA、SB中，控制部5，使開關元件50為OFF時，亦即，熄滅照明負載4A、4B時，觸控感測器部20之發光二極體200宜發光。亦即，因照明負載4A、4B熄滅而昏暗之狀況下，藉由開關裝置SA、SB之前面（操作單元2之前面）發光，可告知開關裝置SA、SB之位置。或是，控制部5，亦可藉由觸控感測器部20之發光二極體200發光，告知操作區域201A（201B）、202A（202B）之位置。In each of the switching devices SA and SB, when the switching unit 50 is turned off, that is, when the illumination loads 4A and 4B are turned off, the control unit 5 preferably emits the light-emitting diodes 200 of the touch sensor unit 20. In other words, when the lighting loads 4A and 4B are turned off and are dim, the positions of the switching devices SA and SB can be notified by the light emitted from the front surface of the switching devices SA and SB (before the operation unit 2). Alternatively, the control unit 5 may notify the position of the operation areas 201A (201B) and 202A (202B) by the light-emitting diodes 200 of the touch sensor unit 20.

又，一般的機械式開關裝置中，因伴隨著接點之切換操作觸感變化，或產生聲音（操作音），可通知操作者操作已接受。另一方面，開關裝置SA、SB中，即使操作單元2經觸控操作，因無操作觸感變化，或產生操作音之情事，操作者有時會難以知悉操作是否已受理。在此，控制部5，於自操作單元2受理操作信號時，宜對操作單元2輸出控制信號，自聲音輸出部29輸出操作音（例如，「嗶」一聲）。惟，操作音之輸出之有無，宜可以設定部52之DIP開關521設定。Further, in a general mechanical switch device, the operator can be notified that the operation has been accepted due to a change in the tactile sensation accompanying the switching operation of the contact or a sound (operation sound). On the other hand, in the switch devices SA and SB, even if the operation unit 2 is touch-operated, it is sometimes difficult for the operator to know whether or not the operation has been accepted because there is no change in the tactile sensation or an operation sound. Here, when receiving the operation signal from the operation unit 2, the control unit 5 preferably outputs a control signal to the operation unit 2, and outputs an operation sound (for example, "click") from the sound output unit 29. However, the presence or absence of the output of the operation sound should be set by the DIP switch 521 of the setting unit 52.

且自第1發信器WA發送無線信號後，第1開關裝置SA之無線通信部54即接收該無線信號，取得該無線信號所含之控制資料而對控制部5輸出。第1開關裝置SA之控制部5，根據自無線通信部54接受之控制資料，使開關元件50為ON（或OFF），藉此，點亮（或熄滅）第1照明負載4A。When the wireless signal is transmitted from the first transmitter WA, the wireless communication unit 54 of the first switching device SA receives the wireless signal, acquires the control data included in the wireless signal, and outputs it to the control unit 5. The control unit 5 of the first switching device SA turns the switching element 50 ON (or OFF) based on the control data received from the wireless communication unit 54, thereby turning on (or extinguishing) the first illumination load 4A.

自第2發信器WB發送無線信號後，第2開關裝置SB之無線通信部54即接收該無線信號，取得該無線信號所含之控制資料而對控制部5輸出。第2開關裝置SB之控制部5，根據自無線通信部54接受之控制資料，使開關元件50為ON（或OFF），藉此，點亮（或熄滅）第2照明負載4B。After the wireless signal is transmitted from the second transmitter WB, the wireless communication unit 54 of the second switching device SB receives the wireless signal, acquires the control data included in the wireless signal, and outputs it to the control unit 5. The control unit 5 of the second switching device SB turns the switching element 50 ON (or OFF) based on the control data received from the wireless communication unit 54, thereby turning on (or extinguishing) the second illumination load 4B.

在此，各開關裝置SA、SB中，控制部5，宜自第1動作模式與第2動作模式選擇其一而動作。又，各開關裝置SA、SB，宜包含擇一選擇「顯示第1動作模式之狀態與顯示第2動作模式之狀態」之選擇開關（DIP開關521），第1動作模式與第2動作模式之選擇（設定），由DIP開關521進行。亦即，控制部5，讀取DIP開關521之狀態（ON或OFF），藉此，對應DIP開關521之狀態，自第1動作模式與第2動作模式選擇其一而動作。例如，控制部5中，DIP開關521若為ON即選擇第1動作模式，DIP開關521若為OFF即選擇第2動作模式。Here, in each of the switching devices SA and SB, the control unit 5 preferably operates by selecting one of the first operation mode and the second operation mode. Further, each of the switching devices SA and SB preferably includes a selection switch (DIP switch 521) that selectively selects a state in which the first operation mode is displayed and a state in which the second operation mode is displayed, and the first operation mode and the second operation mode are selected. Selection (setting) is performed by the DIP switch 521. In other words, the control unit 5 reads the state (ON or OFF) of the DIP switch 521, thereby operating in response to the state of the DIP switch 521 from the first operation mode and the second operation mode. For example, in the control unit 5, when the DIP switch 521 is ON, the first operation mode is selected, and when the DIP switch 521 is OFF, the second operation mode is selected.

選擇第1動作模式之控制部5，對應第1操作信號而使開關元件50為ON/OFF，且對應第2操作信號而自信號傳送部55傳送控制信號。另一方面，選擇第2動作模式之控制部5，對應第2操作信號而使開關元件50為ON/OFF，且對應第1操作信號而自信號傳送部55傳送控制信號。The control unit 5 that selects the first operation mode turns the switching element 50 ON/OFF in response to the first operation signal, and transmits a control signal from the signal transmission unit 55 in response to the second operation signal. On the other hand, the control unit 5 that selects the second operation mode turns the switching element 50 ON/OFF in response to the second operation signal, and transmits a control signal from the signal transmission unit 55 in response to the first operation signal.

例如，圖10所示之系統構成內，第1開關裝置SA中宜選擇第1動作模式，第2開關裝置SB中宜選擇第2動作模式。此時，第1開關裝置SA之第1操作區域201A若經觸控操作，或是第2開關裝置SB之第1操作區域201B若經觸控操作，即點亮或熄滅第1照明負載4A。另一方面，第1開關裝置SA之第2操作區域202A若經觸控操作，或是第2開關裝置SB之第2操作區域202B若經觸控操作，即點亮或熄滅第2照明負載4B。For example, in the system configuration shown in FIG. 10, the first operation mode should be selected in the first switching device SA, and the second operation mode should be selected in the second switching device SB. At this time, when the first operation area 201A of the first switching device SA is touch-operated or the first operation area 201B of the second switching device SB is touch-operated, the first illumination load 4A is turned on or off. On the other hand, if the second operation area 202A of the first switching device SA is touch-operated or the second operation area 202B of the second switching device SB is touch-operated, the second illumination load 4B is turned on or off. .

亦即，使用者，欲點亮或熄滅第1照明負載4A時，對第1開關裝置SA之第1操作區域201A，或是第2開關裝置SB之第1操作區域201B中任一者進行觸控操作即可。且使用者，欲點亮及熄滅第2照明負載4B時，對第1開關裝置SA之第2操作區域202A，或是第2開關裝置SB之第2操作區域202B中任一者進行觸控操作即可。In other words, when the user wants to turn on or off the first lighting load 4A, the user touches either the first operation area 201A of the first switching device SA or the first operation area 201B of the second switching device SB. Control operation can be. When the user wants to turn on and off the second lighting load 4B, the touch operation is performed on either the second operation area 202A of the first switching device SA or the second operation area 202B of the second switching device SB. Just fine.

在此，假定2台開關裝置SA、SB中雙方皆選擇第1動作模式之情形。此時，使用者，欲點亮及熄滅第1照明負載4A時，第1開關裝置SA中需對第1操作區域201A進行觸控操作，第2開關裝置SB中需對第2操作區域202B進行觸控操作。且使用者，欲點亮及熄滅第2照明負載4B時，第1開關裝置SA中需對第2操作區域202A進行觸控操作，第2開關裝置SB中需對第1操作區域201B進行觸控操作。Here, it is assumed that both of the two switching devices SA and SB select the first operation mode. At this time, when the user wants to turn on and off the first lighting load 4A, the first switching device SA needs to perform a touch operation on the first operation area 201A, and the second switching device SB needs to perform the second operation area 202B. Touch operation. When the user wants to turn on and off the second lighting load 4B, the first switching device SA needs to perform a touch operation on the second operation area 202A, and the second switching device SB needs to touch the first operation area 201B. operating.

亦即，2台開關裝置SA、SB之2個操作區域（第1操作區域201A、201B與第2操作區域202A、202B）與2個照明負載（第1照明負載4A與第2照明負載4B）之對應關係相反。因此，就使用者而言使用方便性不佳。That is, two operation areas (the first operation areas 201A and 201B and the second operation areas 202A and 202B) of the two switching devices SA and SB and two illumination loads (the first illumination load 4A and the second illumination load 4B) The corresponding relationship is reversed. Therefore, it is not convenient for the user to use.

且本實施形態之負載控制系統，包含複數開關裝置，複數之開關裝置SA、SB，分別經由電線100連接電源（交流電源3）及負載（照明負載4A、4B），且經由信號線101相互連接。Further, the load control system according to the present embodiment includes a plurality of switching devices, and a plurality of switching devices SA and SB are connected to a power source (AC power source 3) and loads (lighting loads 4A and 4B) via wires 100, and are connected to each other via a signal line 101. .

本實施形態之開關裝置及負載控制系統如上述構成，控制部5自第1動作模式與第2動作模式選擇其一而實行，故就使用者而言可提升使用方便性。The switch device and the load control system according to the present embodiment are configured as described above, and the control unit 5 is executed by selecting one of the first operation mode and the second operation mode, so that the user can improve the usability.

又，本實施形態之開關裝置中，第1操作開關及第2操作開關，宜係檢測人的操作的觸控開關。Further, in the switch device of the present embodiment, the first operation switch and the second operation switch are preferably touch switches for detecting a person's operation.

又，本實施形態之開關裝置，宜更包含：擇一選擇「顯示第1動作模式之狀態與顯示第2動作模式之狀態」之選擇開關（DIP開關521）。且控制部5，宜對應選擇開關（DIP開關521）之狀態，自第1動作模式與第2動作模式選擇其一而動作。Further, the switch device of the present embodiment preferably further includes a selection switch (DIP switch 521) for selectively selecting "the state in which the first operation mode is displayed and the state in which the second operation mode is displayed". Further, the control unit 5 should operate in accordance with the state of the selection switch (DIP switch 521) and select one of the first operation mode and the second operation mode.

藉此，使用者，可藉由操作DIP開關521，選擇開關裝置在第1動作模式或第2動作模式中哪一者下動作。Thereby, the user can select which of the first operation mode or the second operation mode the switch device operates by operating the DIP switch 521.

其次，說明圖10所示之系統構成中，於各開關裝置SA、SB登錄發信器WA、WB之辨識資訊之順序。Next, in the system configuration shown in Fig. 10, the order of identification information of the senders WA, WB is registered in each of the switching devices SA and SB.

進行登錄作業者（以下，稱為作業員。），自開關本體1卸除操作單元2，對露出於開關本體1之前面之3個操作鈕1210中的1個操作鈕1210進行按壓操作。對按鈕1210進行按壓操作後，設定部52之按鈕開關520即為ON，自設定部52對控制部5，輸出設定信號（登錄模式設定信號）。控制部5，在接受登錄模式設定信號後即轉移為登錄模式，發光元件522例如閃爍，藉此，通報作業員。When the registration operation is performed (hereinafter referred to as a worker), the operation unit 2 is removed from the switch main body 1, and one of the three operation buttons 1210 exposed on the front surface of the switch main body 1 is pressed. When the button 1210 is pressed, the button switch 520 of the setting unit 52 is turned ON, and the setting unit 52 outputs a setting signal (registration mode setting signal) to the control unit 5. The control unit 5 shifts to the registration mode after receiving the registration mode setting signal, and the light-emitting element 522 blinks, for example, to notify the worker.

作業員，通過窗孔123確認發光元件522之閃爍（或點亮）後，自發信器（例如，第1發信器WA）發送包含辨識資訊之無線信號。無線通信部54接收自第1發信器WA發送之無線信號，對控制部5輸出該無線信號所含之辨識資訊。控制部5，令記憶部53記憶自無線通信部54接受之辨識資訊後，點亮發光元件522例如一定時間，藉此，通報作業員辨識資訊已登錄。其後，作業員長期按壓操作鈕1210既定時間，或是，轉移為登錄模式再經過一定時間後，控制部5即結束登錄模式而轉移為通常之動作模式。When the operator confirms the blinking (or lighting) of the light-emitting element 522 through the window 123, the wireless signal including the identification information is transmitted from the transmitter (for example, the first transmitter WA). The wireless communication unit 54 receives the wireless signal transmitted from the first transmitter WA, and outputs the identification information included in the wireless signal to the control unit 5. The control unit 5 causes the memory unit 53 to store the identification information received from the wireless communication unit 54, and then illuminates the light-emitting element 522 for a predetermined period of time, for example, to notify the operator that the identification information has been registered. Thereafter, when the operator presses the operation button 1210 for a predetermined period of time for a predetermined period of time or shifts to the registration mode for a certain period of time, the control unit 5 ends the registration mode and shifts to the normal operation mode.

亦即，自發信器WA、WB發送之無線信號中，包含於各發信器WA、WB固有之辨識資訊。又，各開關裝置SA、SB之控制部5，僅在由無線通信部54接收之無線信號所含之辨識資訊，與由記憶部53記憶之辨識資訊一致時，根據該無線信號所含之控制資料，使開關元件50為ON或OFF。又，1台發信器WA（或WB）之辨識資訊亦可於2台開關裝置SA、SB共通登錄。此時，可藉由自辨識資訊經共通登錄之發信器WA（或WB）發送之無線信號，令2台開關裝置SA、SB同時點亮及熄滅照明負載4A及4B。That is, the wireless signals transmitted from the transmitters WA and WB are included in the identification information unique to each of the transmitters WA and WB. Further, the control unit 5 of each of the switching devices SA and SB controls the control information included in the wireless signal received by the wireless communication unit 54 only when the identification information stored in the memory unit 53 matches the identification information stored in the memory unit 53. The data is such that the switching element 50 is turned ON or OFF. Moreover, the identification information of one transmitter WA (or WB) can also be commonly registered in the two switching devices SA and SB. At this time, the two switching devices SA and SB can simultaneously illuminate and extinguish the lighting loads 4A and 4B by the wireless signal transmitted from the transmitter WA (or WB) which is commonly registered by the identification information.
