Abstract: An equipment management system includes: an equipment control device having a control unit connected to the equipment control server to transmit a control signal for controlling the load of the equipment in cooperation with the equipment control server; an identifiable medium; a reading device having an acquisition unit for acquiring identification information of the medium present in a management target area, a determination unit for determining presence/absence of a user carrying the medium in the management coverage depending on the acquired information, and an instruction unit for instructing the control unit to control the load of the equipment depending on the determination result; and an authentication server having an authentication unit for performing authentication based on the identification information. The transmitting operation from the instruction unit of the reading device to the control unit of the equipment control device is performed in a wireless manner.

Abstract: A remote monitoring and control system includes a monitoring and control device operated to control loads; and a load control device for controlling the loads based on the operation of the monitoring and control device. The monitoring and control device includes: a display unit for displaying an operation screen including operation keys for controlling corresponding loads; an input receiving unit for receiving an input through the displayed operation keys; a reading unit for reading out a user ID; a storage unit for storing load-identifying information identifying loads and control information having control contents of the loads; and a determining unit for searching the storage unit if a user ID is read out, and determining the load-identifying information and the control information which correspond to the user ID, and the load control device controls the loads identified based on the load-identifying information, depending on the control contents of the control information.
