Remote operation system, relay device, communication device, and remote operation method
First Claim
1. A remote operation system comprising:
- communication devices;
an external hardware device configured to specify at least one communication device as a target for a remote operation among the communication devices, and configured to accept an input of a remote operation content to be executed for the specified communication device; and
a relay configured to relay communication between the specified communication device and the external device,wherein the relay comprises;
a storage configured to store the remote operation content accepted by the external device; and
a first processor configured to;
notify the specified communication device of the remote operation content, each of the communication devices comprise;
an internal function processing unit; and
a second processor configured to;
determine whether or not an in-terminal server is in an activated state without a user input, andaccept a notification of the remote operation content from the first processor and is configured to cause the internal function processing unit to operate when the in-terminal server is in the activated state,wherein in response to a completion of the operation of the internal function processing unit according to the remote operation content for the communication device stored in the storage, the second processor is configured to deactivate the in-terminal server, andwherein the execution of an interrupt operation is delayed until the in-terminal server is deactivated, in response to an interrupt operation for the communication device before completion of the operation of the internal function processing unit according to the remote operation content for the communication device stored in the storage.

Abstract
There is provided a remote operation system, a relay device, a communication device, and a remote operation method which are capable of executing collective remote operations. The remote operation system includes communication devices, an external device that specifies at least one communication device as a target of a remote operation among the communication devices, and accepts an input of a remote operation content to be executed for the specified communication device, and a relay unit for relaying communication between the specified communication devices and the external device. The relay unit includes a storage unit for storing the remote operation content accepted by the external device, and a notification unit for notifying the specified communication device of the remote operation content.
