The objective of the present invention is to control a beacon in a mesh beacon. A system contains a plurality of beacons which are capable of communicating with one another within a prescribed radio wave reaching distance and which transmit and receive prescribed signals, each of the plurality of beacons being disposed within the radio wave reaching distance of at least one other beacon, and a control device capable of communicating with at least one of the plurality of beacons. Each beacon is provided with: a receiving unit for receiving a signal including a setting change instruction sent from the control device; a setting unit for changing the setting value of a prescribed item in the device on the basis of the setting change instruction; and a transmitting unit for transmitting a signal including information based on the setting value changed by the setting means to the control device.

Beacon

An infrared communication adapter which can carry out a data exchange with an external equipment having an infrared communication interface even though a portable telephone does not have an infrared communication function. The adapter includes a portable telephone side connecting section for transmitting a serial data supplied from the portable telephone by connecting an external communication interface of the portable telephone; an infrared communication interface for carrying out a data communication with the external equipment in accordance with the infrared communication protocol. The adapter analyzes a communication protocol of the communication interface disposed on the data supply side and carries out an RSC emulation internally to transmit the data by converting the analyzed communication protocol into a communication protocol corresponding to a communication interface disposed on the data receive side.

A key-board type input mechanism suitable for inputting large quantity of data is provided to a portable information technology device having a pen-input type display device. A keyboard (or) of the present invention comprises a key top panel portion (or) on which a plurality of input key portions (or) that are pressed down when carrying out a key input are integrally formed, a coordinate position information generating portion () and contact portions (or) for changing loads generated by pressing each input key portion of the key top panel portion down into a vertical load, a load distribution portion (or) for distributing unnecessary loads other than the vertical load changed by the coordinate position information generating portion and the contact portions, by deformation under a pressure. The key top panel portion, coordinate position information generating portion, contact portion, and load distribution portion are layered.

Keyboard type input device and portable information processor

A display device of electronic equipment comprises a display portion attached to a movable unit having a light incident surface through which light enters and a tip end surface for emitting light which enters through the light incident surface. Light emitting elements (and a prism) are mounted on a body unit for emitting light toward the rear end surface of the display portion in a state where the movable unit is mounted on the body unit. The tip end surface of the display portion is exposed on the surface of the movable unit, whereby the tip end surface is lighted when the emitting elements or the prism emits light toward the rear end surface of the display portion, thereby displaying a state of the electronic equipment.
