Abstract: A start control device that starts an electronic apparatus, the start control device includes: a controller configured to start the electronic apparatus based on a start signal received from a network; and a plurality of receivers configured to receive the start signal from the network, wherein at least one of the plurality of receivers includes a storage that stores identification information of the at least one of the plurality of receivers and identification information of another receivers, and wherein the at least one of receivers receives the start signal and identification information of one of the plurality of receivers from the network and executes a process that instructs the controller to start the electronic apparatus when the received identification information matches the identification information of the another receiver stored in the storage.

Abstract: A power supply control apparatus is provided in which it is possible to easily calculate and predict a necessary and sufficient power consumption value in a device which consumes electric power. As a result, it can positively prevent a shortage or surplus of the power supply capacity, thus saving unnecessary costs for power supply equipment. Still further, it is also prevent the occurrence of critical situations such as missing or loss of stored information due to a shortage of the power supply capacity. To this end, in a device which is supplied with electric power from a power supply unit, configuration units constituting the device are stored as configuration information, and an amount of power consumed by each configuration unit is also stored as power consumption information. Based on the configuration information and the power consumption information thus stored, there is obtained a power consumption value of the device, on the basis of which a prescribed processing is carried out.
