Abstract: A communication system includes a first communication device, a second communication device and a third communication device. The first communication device is configured to be connected to an operating device mounted on a human-powered vehicle. The second communication device is configured to be connected to a transmission device of the human-powered vehicle. The third communication device is configured to be connected to a component that is mounted on the human-powered vehicle and that differs from the operating device and the transmission device. The second communication device is configured to receive first information that is sent from the first communication device in response to operation of the operating device. The third communication device of the component is configured to receive second information that includes at least some of the first information sent from the second communication device.

Abstract: An operating device of a human-powered vehicle comprises a base structure, an operating member, and an output unit. The base structure is mountable to the human-powered vehicle. The operating member is movable relative to the base structure in response to a user input operation. The output unit is configured to output, in response to the user input operation, first information indicating that a remaining level of an electric power source is lower than a remaining-level threshold in a case where the remaining level is lower than the remaining-level threshold. The output unit is configured to be free of outputting, in response to the user input operation, second information indicating that the remaining level of the electric power source is higher than the remaining-level threshold in a case where the remaining level is higher than the remaining-level threshold.
