An operation device is provided with a GUI display unit which displays a power setting value for defining an operation power of a household appliance, and a time setting value for defining an operation time of the household appliance on an orthogonal coordinate system; and a touch operation unit which simultaneously accepts an input of the power setting value and an input of the time setting value to be displayed on the GUI display unit by an operation of letting a predetermined object touch the GUI display unit.

Operation device and operation method

An operation display part according to the present invention includes a GUI display portion which displays each of display images having a size in a horizontal direction correlated with a duration of an operating time of each of the steps, a touch operating portion which extends or shortens the size of each of the display images, a controller which determines an operating time of each step based on the operating time corresponding to the size of each of the display images, and a memory which stores information of a settable range of the operating time of each steps set for each washing course, wherein, when an operating time of a step included in a predetermined washing course is set in the predetermined washing course, the GUI display portion displays the settable range of the operating time of this washing course as a range in a horizontal direction together with the display images. Consequently, in an electric machine and appliance which executes an operation action selected from a plurality of operation actions including a plurality of steps, it is possible to display a settable range of an operating time of each step of this selected operation action.

Operating device

A system, device, method, and program for informing abnormality, providing a user with abnormality information of equipment in an easy-to-understand manner so that convenience is enhanced. When abnormality occurs in equipment including home electric appliances, abnormality information indicating abnormality is transmitted to a server through an information terminal, and based on a reply from the server, contents of the abnormality are displayed on the terminal.
