Abstract

A first device according to one embodiment includes, but is not limited to, receiver circuitry, determinator circuitry, and transmitter circuitry. The receiver circuitry is configured and/or programmed to receive from a second device, first information for controlling a third device. The determinator circuitry is configured and/or programmed to determine whether or not the first information is to be transmitted to the third device, based on whether or not the first information is associated with second information stored in the first device. The second information includes at least a first operation command for controlling a first operation of the third device. The transmitter circuitry is configured and/or programmed to, in a case that the first information is determined to be transmitted to the third device, transmit the first information to the third device.
