Abstract: A remote control apparatus controls operation of a vehicular alarm apparatus. The remote control apparatus has a transmission section that transmits to the vehicular alarm apparatus (a) a first alarm instruction for causing the vehicular alarm apparatus to perform a first alarm operation and (b) a second alarm instruction for causing the vehicular alarm apparatus to perform a second alarm operation, which is different from the first alarm operation.

Abstract: A state judgment unit (21) of an on-vehicle terminal (20) judges whether the vehicle is in operation by using outputs of the operation state of a mobile terminal (10), a key insert switch (32), an ignition switch (33), and a courtesy switch (34). A theft detection unit (22) includes a diagnosis processing unit (22a) and a monitoring processing unit (22b). When the vehicle is in operation, the diagnosis processing unit (22a) executes diagnosis of a human body sensor (41), a vibration sensor (42), and a microphone (43). When the vehicle is not in operation state, the monitoring processing unit (22b) monitors presence/absence of theft action by using the outputs of the human body sensor (41), the vibration sensor (42), and the microphone (43).

Abstract: A processing apparatus is mounted on a to-be-equipped body, transmits/receives signals to/from a portable transmitter portably carried by a user, and activates one of functions provided in the to-be-equipped body in accordance with instruction information included in an instruction signal transmitted from the portable transmitter. The processing apparatus includes a receiving unit, a transmitting unit, a judgment unit, a control unit, and an adjustment unit. The receiving unit receives the instruction signal transmitted from the portable transmitter. The transmitting unit transmits a response signal. The judgment unit judges whether or not an acknowledgement signal has been received from the portable transmitter. The control unit activates a function to be activated by the instruction information when the judgment unit concludes that the acknowledgement signal has been received.

Abstract: A key-less entry system including a transmitter for transmitting a door lock signal, and a vehicle onboard unit for executing a door automatic lock by detecting that a driver side door has made a transition from an open state to a closed state after reception of the lock signal. Accordingly, once the onboard unit is set to automatic lock mode by operating the transmitter, there is no need to again operate the transmitter and transmit a lock request after finishing work, but the door lock is automatically executed when the door is closed.

Abstract: An antitheft apparatus includes a control section. When a status change from a closed state to an open state of a luggage door caused by regular means is detected in an arming state being ready to output an alarm, the control section shifts a status from the arming state to a disarmed state being not ready to output an alarm; when a status change from the open state to the closed state of the luggage door is detected in the disarmed state, the control section shifts the status from the disarmed state to the arming state after a predetermined length of preparatory period; and when an arming command to shift the status from the disarmed state to the arming state is given within the length of preparatory period, the control section shifts the status from the disarmed state to the arming state.

Abstract: A remote starting control apparatus is installed in a vehicle incorporating an immobilizer section for inputting a key code output based on insertion of an ignition key into a key cylinder, and when determining that the input key code is a predetermined key code, enabling an engine to be started. The remote starting control apparatus performs starting control of the engine in response to an instruction from a portable transmitter. It includes comparing two or more key codes output from an immobi amplifier in response to two or more key code output requests, thereby determining the key code to be stored in EEPROM from among the key codes, storing the determined key code in the EEPROM, and supplying the key code stored in the EEPROM to the immobilizer section upon reception or a start command of the engine by remote operation.

Abstract: A system for remotely controlling the doors of an automotive vehicle with a reduced number of transmitters to be held and a reduced number of buttons of the transmitters is disclosed. The transmitter has a lock button and an unlock button. Upon depression of the lock button or the unlock button, a corresponding demand signal is transmitted repeatedly. The demand signal includes an ID code, a button code and a time code. The button code indicates the identification of the lock button or the unlock button. The time code indicates whether a button has been kept depressed for at least a predetermined length of time or the number of times the button is depressed. The receiver controls the door lock/unlock operation and the door open/close operation based on the button code and the time code. The time code can be replaced with a number-of-times code indicating the number of times a button is depressed.

Abstract: In a protection switching method for a passive optical network system, a communication abnormality is detected in at least one active-system virtual path established between an optical line terminal and a subscriber terminal through a transmission path and a network unit. When a communication abnormality is detected in an active-system virtual path, a switch is controlled to switch the transmission paths to establish a standby-system virtual path between the optical line terminal and the subscriber terminal as a communication partner. A protection switching apparatus for a passive optical network system is also disclosed.
