METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INFORMATION APPARATUS AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A method for controlling an information apparatus, the information apparatus having a touch-panel display and connected to a network, over which one or more target devices are controlled,the method causing a computer of the information apparatus to:
- display a display screen representing a floor plan of a building on the touch-panel display;
display an icon representing each of the one or more target devices on the display screen representing the floor plan, the one or more target devices including an air conditioner;
in the case where selection of an icon representing the air conditioner is sensed in a region corresponding to a first room on the floor plan that is larger than a predetermined area, switch the region corresponding to the first room to an adjustment region for changing a set temperature of the air conditioner;
in the case where selection of the icon representing the air conditioner is sensed in a region corresponding to a second room on the floor plan that is equal to or smaller than the predetermined area, display an adjustment screen for changing the set temperature of an air conditioner installed in the region corresponding to the second room on the display screen; and
in the case where it is sensed that a contact to the touch-panel display moves within the adjustment region or adjustment screen, transmit, to the network, a control command for changing the set temperature of the air conditioner in accordance with a movement amount in which the contact moves.

Abstract
In the case where selection of an icon representing an air conditioner is sensed in a region corresponding to a first room on the floor plan that is larger than a predetermined area, the region corresponding to the first room is switched to an adjustment region for changing the set temperature of the air conditioner. In the case where selection of the icon representing the air conditioner is sensed in a region corresponding to a second room on the floor plan that is equal to or smaller than the predetermined area, an adjustment screen for changing the set temperature of the air conditioner installed in the region corresponding to the second room is displayed on the display screen.
