摘要:
In a network of a topology of a loop and a bus, occurrence of a failure is detected and a location of the failure is specified. Occurrence of the failure is detected by detecting that a specific signal pattern to be received at regular time intervals within a fixed time period is not received. A node which has detected occurrence of the failure transmits or receives a specifying signal among the nodes, and decide whether or not the failure has occurred adjacently to itself. A packet indicating a decided location of the failure is transmitted or received among nodes, and thereby respective nodes specify the location of the failure. When the failure has occurred at the master node, a node having a smallest node ID after waiting time according to the node ID operates as the alternative master node.

A network system in which at least one loop comprising plural loop-connected nodes and at least one loop comprising either a single node or plural loop-connected nodes are directly connected to a common transmission line, wherein a signal output from one of the nodes is transmitted to all the nodes, and then is discarded by one of the nodes in each loop.

A master station 11 produces a token packet for isochronous data in which a slave station 12 and slave stations 13 and 14 serving as a sending station and receiving stations are designated using IDs for isochronous data “#2” and “#3” in accordance with contents described in a table 161 held in its inner part so as to manage a transmission bandwidth using a token packet sending/analysis executing device 16, and sends out the produced token packet to a transition path 15 on the downstream side. The slave station 12 sends out an isochronous data packet 42 using the token packet for isochronous data 41. According to the token packet for isochronous data 41, the slave stations 13 and 14 are designated as receiving stations using the ID for isochronous data “#3”, so that the slave stations 13 and 14 perform the above-mentioned operations, to receive the isochronous data packet 42. The sending station can thus transmit the same isochronous data to a plurality of receiving stations belonging to a broadcast group, so that it is possible to establish multicast communication (communication to a plurality of nodes).

A network system comprises a main loop in which one master node which issues a token packet for data communication, and at least one slave node are connected in a loop; a first sub loop in which the master node, one sub-master node, and at least one slave node are connected in a loop; and at least one second sub loop in which the master node, at least two sub-master nodes including the sub-master node of the first sub loop, and at least one slave node are connected in a loop. In this network system, each node has an analysis execution unit which performs analysis of the token packet, control of data transmission and data reception, and a switch for changing the connection. When each node receives and analyzes the token packet, it controls the switch so as to output, transmit, or discard the token packet and a data packet. Therefore, addition of nodes and loops is facilitated while maintaining the transmission efficiency, without increasing the packet transmission time.

A washer-dryer is provided with a time shift function for performing timer presetting processing on the basis of a time shift computation result which indicates an operation start time suitable for operation. The washer-dryer includes: an input operation unit for allowing a user to perform operations for operating the washer-dryer; a display unit for displaying information relating to the operation of the washer-dryer; and an operation control unit for controlling the operation of the washer-dryer on the basis of the time shift computation result. When a start button on the input operation unit is operated by the user, the operation control unit automatically performs the timer presetting processing on the basis of the time shift computation result and also displays a timer preset time at the display unit.
