Abstract:
1. A wireless control system comprising: a controlled apparatus; and a wireless controlling apparatus that controls said controlled apparatus via a wireless communication path, wherein one of said controlled apparatus and said wireless controlling apparatus obtains recognition information for uniquely recognizing an other one of said controlled apparatus and said wireless controlling apparatus, via a communication path different from the wireless communication path connecting said apparatus and said other apparatus, when a connected apparatus recognized via the wireless communication path is identified by the obtained recognition information, said apparatus sets the connected apparatus as said other apparatus to enable communication with the connected apparatus, and said wireless control system further comprises: a first controlled apparatus; and a second controlled apparatus, wherein said first controlled apparatus has first recognition information which is recognition information used by a communication apparatus different from said first controlled apparatus to uniquely recognize said first controlled apparatus, said second controlled apparatus has second recognition information which is recognition information used by a communication apparatus different from said second controlled apparatus to uniquely recognize said second controlled apparatus, said second controlled apparatus outputs the second recognition information to said first controlled apparatus when said first controlled apparatus and said second controlled apparatus are connected to each other, in a case where said wireless controlling apparatus is able to communicate with said first controlled apparatus according to the first recognition information, said first controlled apparatus outputs the second recognition information to said wireless controlling apparatus, said wireless controlling apparatus enables communication with said second controlled apparatus recognized via the wireless communication path, according to the second recognition information outputted from said first controlled apparatus, and the different communication path is composed of two communication paths that are a communication path between said first controlled apparatus and said second controlled apparatus and the wireless communication path between said first controlled apparatus and said wireless controlling apparatus.
