WASHING MACHINE AND WASHING MACHINE CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

A washing machine (29) configured to communicate with a terminal device (28) via wireless communication includes a controller for controlling operation and communication of the washing machine (29), and an operation display unit (37) disposed in an upper part of the washing machine (29) and extended in the left-right direction, for determining and displaying a setting of an operation course. The operation display unit (37) includes a power-on switch for turning on a power source, a display unit (26) for displaying setting contents of the operation course, and a washing machine transmitter-receiver (38) for communicating with the terminal device (28). The controller receives, via the washing machine transmitter-receiver (38), information on the operation course transmitted from the terminal device (28), and displays the operation course and controls operation of the operation course based on the information on the operation course. The power-on switch is disposed in either the left side or the right side of the operation display unit (37). The washing machine transmitter-receiver (38) is disposed in the other of the left side and the right side of the operation display unit (37) such that the washing machine transmitter-receiver (38) can be located opposite to the power-on switch.
