Air-conditioning system and application program

Abstract

An air-conditioning system includes a plurality of indoor unit parts having wireless communication units transmitting wireless radio waves, and a mobile terminal unit performing a wireless communication with each of the wireless communication units. The mobile terminal unit includes an air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit accepting input from a user, an air-conditioning apparatus information display unit displaying information to the user, and an air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit controlling the indoor unit parts. The air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit causes the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit to display a list of the indoor unit parts and causes the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit also to perform display for urging selection of ones of the indoor unit parts as targets of a collective setting operation. When ones of the indoor unit parts are selected from the air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit, the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit sets the selected ones of the indoor unit parts as a group.

         3 . The air-conditioning system of  claim 2 , wherein
 the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit has information related to a user ID, and,   when the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit accepts input of a user ID of an administrator from the air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit with reference to the information related to the user ID, the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit is configured to cause the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit to display the list of the plurality of indoor unit parts and is configured to cause the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit also to perform the display for urging the selection of ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts as the targets of the collective setting operation.   
     
     
         4 . The air-conditioning system of  claim 3 , wherein,
 in a case where the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit accepts the input of the user ID of the administrator from the air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit with reference to the information related to the user ID,   when a group is set in advance, the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit is configured to cause the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit to perform display for urging the user to input on whether or not the group is reset.   
     
     
         5 . The air-conditioning system of  claim 1 , wherein
 an application program is installed in the mobile terminal unit,   the application program is configured to cause the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit to execute processing for displaying the list of the plurality of indoor unit parts and also performing the display for urging the selection of ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts as the targets of the collective setting operation, and,   when ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts are selected from the air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit, the application program is configured to cause the mobile terminal unit to execute processing for setting the selected ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts as the group.   
     
     
         6 . A storage unit storing an application program configured to cause a computer to execute
 processing for causing a display unit configured to display information to a user to display a list of indoor unit parts and also to perform display for urging selection of ones of the indoor unit parts as targets of a collective setting operation, and,   when ones of the indoor unit parts are selected from an input unit configured to accept input from the user, processing for setting the selected ones of the indoor unit parts as a group.   
     
     
         7 . An air-conditioning system comprising:
 a plurality of indoor unit parts having wireless communication units configured to transmit wireless radio waves; and   a mobile terminal unit configured to perform a wireless communication with each of the wireless communication units,   the mobile terminal unit including   an air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit configured to accept input from a user,   an air-conditioning apparatus information display unit configured to display information to the user, and   an air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit configured to control the plurality of indoor unit parts,   the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit being configured to cause the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit to display a list of the plurality of indoor unit parts and being configured to cause the air-conditioning apparatus information display unit also to perform display for urging selection of ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts as targets of a collective setting operation,   when ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts are selected from the air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit, the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit being configured to set the selected ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts as a group,   when the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit accepts input of the collective setting operation from the air-conditioning apparatus operation input unit, the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit being configured to transmit an air-conditioning operation command to all the wireless communication units of ones of the plurality of indoor unit parts registered in the set group,   when the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit transmits the air-conditioning operation command, the air-conditioning apparatus operation management unit being configured to cancel the set group.
