A control apparatus for controlling multiple electronic devices includes a receiving unit, a relay, and a processing unit. The receiving unit receives control signals. The relay is connected between the device to be controlled and a power supply to power on/off the device to be controlled. The processing unit is connected to the receiving unit and the relay. When the processing unit receives the control signals from the receiving unit, the processing unit compares the received control signals with a reference control signal and determines whether to drive the relay to control the device according to the result of the comparison.
