Abstract:
A communication system includes a first terminal and a second terminal including an stow part for stowing the first terminal. The first terminal includes a first light emitter that emits infrared light, a first light receiver that receives infrared light, and a first controller. The first controller causes the first light emitter to emit light based on first specifying information upon receiving a pairing request signal via the first light receiver. The second terminal includes a second stow sensor that detects stow of the first terminal, a second light emitter that emits infrared light, a second light receiver that receives infrared light, and a second controller. The second controller causes the second light emitter to emit light based on a pairing request signal in accordance with detection of stow of the first terminal by the second stow sensor and performs control corresponding to the information including the first specifying information.
Abstract:
The communication device, which is connectable by straight or crossover wiring to another communication device, comprises a transmission port configured to send signals to the other communication device, a reception port configured to receive signals, a communication controller including an automatic transmission and reception switching component that determines whether or not the wiring is correct and automatically switches the transmission and reception of signals by the transmission port and the reception port 1, and a wiring state notification component. The controller (i) actuates the automatic transmission and reception switching component when communication with the other communication device has not been established in a state in which the automatic transmission and reception switching component is not actuated, and (ii) through the wiring state notification component, outputs information that there is an error in the wiring when communication with the other communication device has been established as a result of (i).
