Laundry treatment device

A laundry treatment apparatus includes a cabinet having first and second washing apparatuses that treat laundry introduced through a front opening and through a top opening, respectively. The second washing apparatus includes: a tub that holds water and has an opening at a top that is accessible through the second opening; a drum inside the tub that rotates about a vertical shaft; an agitation unit protruding upward from a center bottom surface of the drum that agitates water and laundry inside the rotating drum; a heater that heats water in the tub; a water supply valve controlling a flow of water into the tub; and at least one processor that controls the heater to heat a first amount of water in the tub to a first temperature; and controls the water supply valve to additionally supply, to the first amount of water, incremental amounts of water to into the tub.

Laundry treatment apparatus and method of controlling the same

The present disclosure relates to diagnostic apparatus and method for home appliance which make it easy to diagnose a breakdown of a home appliance, using a signal including product information and outputted from the home appliance, in which a signal is converted in accordance with signal distortion generated in the process of transmitting the output signal or in a terminal, so that the product information of the home appliance is easily extracted, accuracy of a diagnosis result is improved, an after-sales service for a breakdown of the home appliance is easily provided, and reliability of the product is improved by the improvement of accuracy of the diagnosis result.

Diagnostic apparatus and method for home appliance

A laundry treating apparatus including a drum holding a washing object, a drive unit rotating the drum, a drive controller, a display unit with an input unit accepting drive unit control orders, and a display communicating treating progress of the washing object. The display unit having a controller with an input data processing unit, an output data processing unit, and a processing unit control program for running the input and output data processing units. The laundry treating apparatus further including a system managing unit enabling the drive controller and display unit to exchange data with the display unit controller, ordering operation of the display unit, and running the processing unit control program, a list storage unit storing a program list the display unit controller runs, and a monitoring unit for initializing the system managing unit if the processing unit control program is not at the list storage unit.

Laundry treating apparatus

The present invention provides a laundry treating apparatus including a cabinet, an accommodating unit within the cabinet to hold laundry, a door provided on one face of the cabinet to access the accommodating unit, a control panel to receive a washing cycle control order, a first communication module to communicate with a mobile communication terminal through a local area network to receive ID information.

Laundry treating apparatus and method for controlling the same

A home appliance, a home appliance diagnostic system, and an operation method are provided, which allow a user to easily perform smart diagnosis by image progress and simply operate an input device and to diagnose a status of a home appliance, by displaying setup of smart diagnosis in a menu image including characters and images and outputting explanation of progresses on a screen by stages in accordance with a set diagnosis method.

Home appliance, home appliance diagnostic system, and method

A home appliance and a signal output method thereof are disclosed. The home appliance outputs product information in the form of a sound signal, which is transmitted to a service center at a remote site over a communication network so that the service center can readily check the state of the home appliance. A digital signal including product information of the home appliance is converted into a sound signal based on a plurality of frequency signals. Therefore, a larger amount of data can be rapidly transmitted for a fault diagnosis, so as to improve fault diagnosis accuracy.
