REMOTE OPERATION SYSTEM FOR ELECTRIC APPARATUS, REMOTE OPERATING METHOD FOR ELECTRIC APPARATUS AND BASE STATION FOR PERFORMING REMOTE OPERATION OF ELECTRIC APPARATUS

摘要

Communication apparatuses based on a plurality of platforms, e.g. a push-button type telephone (13), a personal computer (14) and a portable telephone (15), are connected with a base station (12) over a public network (22) or the Internet (20), operation is guided from the base station (12) by means of voice guidance or Web page, and the base station (12) remote-controls an electric apparatus (11) in response to operation by a user of the communication apparatus (13-15). The guide program, voice guidance and Web page in the base station (12) can be updated through storage operation (24a, 27a, 27b, 27c) in the base station (12) and the function can be added or altered easily. Various platforms can be dealt with, various functions can be added and the operation menu can be updated easily.
