An electronic control unit includes: a first determination unit which determines whether a message received is an address claim message; a second determination unit which determines, when it is determined that the message received is an address claim message, whether a device name included in the address claim message received is a predetermined device name; and a third determination unit which performs a predefined determination process, when it is determined that the device name included in the address claim message received is the predetermined device name, and determine whether the address claim message received is an unauthorized message according to a result of the predefined determination process.

Electronic control unit, electronic control system, and recording medium

In the case where selection of an icon representing an air conditioner is sensed in a region corresponding to a certain room on a floor plan, a region corresponding to the certain room on the floor plan is switched to an adjustment region for changing the set temperature of the air conditioner. In the case where it is sensed that a contact made to a touch-panel display moves within the region corresponding to the certain room, a control command for changing the set temperature of the air conditioner in accordance with a distance in which the contact moves is transmitted to the network.

Method for controlling information apparatus and computer-readable recording medium

In the case where selection of an icon representing an air conditioner is sensed in a region corresponding to a first room on the floor plan that is larger than a predetermined area, the region corresponding to the first room is switched to an adjustment region for changing the set temperature of the air conditioner. In the case where selection of the icon representing the air conditioner is sensed in a region corresponding to a second room on the floor plan that is equal to or smaller than the predetermined area, an adjustment screen for changing the set temperature of the air conditioner installed in the region corresponding to the second room is displayed on the display screen.

Control method for information apparatus and computer-readable recording medium that control air purifier connected to a network

A control method causes a computer of an information apparatus to: display a display screen representing a floor plan on a display; display on the display screen device icons, the device icons including a dehumidifier icon; when selection of the dehumidifier icon is sensed, display on the display an operation screen for operating a dehumidifier corresponding to the dehumidifier icon, the operation screen being displayed on the display screen and outside of a region corresponding to a room where the selection of the dehumidifier icon is sensed; output a control command for operating the dehumidifier to a network based on an operation on the operation screen; and display an operation state of the dehumidifier in the region corresponding to the room where the selection of the dehumidifier icon is sensed based on the operation on the operation screen.

Control method for information apparatus and computer readable recording medium that control dehumidifiers connected to a network

A control method according to the present disclosure causes a computer of an information apparatus to: display on the display a display screen representing a floor plan of a building; display on the display screen device icons respectively representing the one or more target devices, the device icons being movable when dragged and including an air purifier icon that represents an air purifier; and when it is sensed that the air purifier icon is selected, and is moved on the floor plan, display an effect range in which an effect of the air purifier extends in a region corresponding to a room in the floor plan where a drop of the air purifier icon is sensed.

Control method for information apparatus and computer-readable recording medium

A control method according to the present disclosure causes a computer of an information apparatus to: display on a display a display screen representing a floor plan of a building; display on the display screen device icons respectively representing one or more target devices, the device icons being movable when dragged and including a humidifier icon that represents a humidifier; and when it is sensed that the humidifier icon is selected, and is moved on the floor plan, display an effect range in which an effect of the humidifier extends, in a region corresponding to a room in the floor plan where a drop of the humidifier icon is sensed.

Control method for information apparatus and computer-readable recording medium that control humidifiers connected to network

In the case where selection of a device icon representing an air conditioner among one or more target devices is sensed in a region corresponding to one room on a floor plan, an operation screen for operating the air conditioner corresponding to the selected device icon, is displayed on a display screen. This operation screen includes an image representing an air flow direction of air output from the air conditioner.

In the case where selection of a device icon that represents an air conditioner and that is displayed in a region corresponding to one room on a floor plan is sensed in the region corresponding to the one room, an operation screen for operating the air conditioner corresponding to the selected device icon is displayed. In the case where a temperature is set on the basis of an operation of the operation screen, a control command for setting to the air conditioner the set temperature is output to the network, and information related to an operation state of the air conditioner is displayed in the region corresponding to the one room based on the operation of the operation screen.

A memory card and a recording/playback device are provided that are capable of deterring a memory card manufacturer from illicitly storing a same media ID on a plurality of memory cards. A memory card () includes a media ID storage module unit () and a memory unit (). The media ID storage module unit () includes a media ID storage unit () that stores therein a media ID that is specific to the memory card, and a certification unit () that generates certification information that certifies the validity of the memory card based on the media ID. The memory unit () includes an encrypted content storage unit () for storing encrypted digital content. The recording/playback device () includes a memory card verification unit () that acquires the certification information from the memory card (), verifies the validity of the memory card () based on the acquired certification information, and when the verification has failed, prohibits decrypting an encrypted content or encrypting a content, and a content encryption unit () that, when the verification has succeeded, encrypts the digital content or decrypts the encrypted digital content.

A recording medium enables special playback processing although part of the AV stream recorded therein is transformed. An AV stream, a first EP map, and a second EP map are recorded on the recording medium. In the AV stream, a part of the multiplexed stream including a first video stream and a second video stream is transformed. The first EP map indicates one or more entry points of the first video stream and the second EP map indicates one or more entry points of the second video stream. TS packets constituting I-pictures of the first video stream are indicated by every 4N-th entry point in the first EP map, and TS packets constituting I-pictures of the second video stream are indicated by the entry points whose presentation time is closest to the presentation time of any one of the every 4N-th entry point in the first EP map.
