Information processing apparatus and control method

摘要

The present invention provides an information processing apparatus having a system body, body operation means provided on the system body, and remote operation means for use in performing a remote operation of the system body, the information processing apparatus being configured to perform processing according to operational information obtained by the body operation means or the remote operation means. The information processing apparatus includes means for distinguishing between the operation by the body operation means and the operation by the remote operation means. Power control of each device in the system body is performed according to a first set state during the operation of the body operation means. When the operation of the remote operation means is performed in a battery powered condition, power control of each device in the system body is performed according to a second set state where power consumption is lower than that in the first set state.
