1. A control system, comprising:
- a sensor configured to receive a sensing signal and send a notice signal when a user moves to within a predetermined distance from the sensor;
a preparatory starting device configured to receive the notice signal, perform a preparatory starting operation and send an operation command and/or an operation power;
a starting unit coupled to the preparatory starting device and configured to receive a control signal, and receive and send the operation command and/or the operation power; and
a receiving end coupled to the starting unit, and configured to receive the operation command and/or the operation power and perform a receiving end operation;
wherein after the sensor receives the sensing signal, the sensor sends the notice signal to the preparatory starting device, the preparatory starting device performs the preparatory starting operation, the preparatory starting device sends the operation command and/or the operation power to the starting unit, the starting unit sends the operation command and/or the operation power to the receiving end to perform a functional starting operation for the control system to enter an operation-allowed mode for the receiving end to perform the receiving end operation only when the starting unit receives the control signal; and
wherein the preparatory starting operation consumes less power than the functional starting operation, and the preparatory starting operation comprises a motor increasing a rotational speed to a specific speed and/or a plurality of devices establishing handshake protocol among one another.

Abstract
In a control system, when a sensor receives a sensing signal, the sensor sends a notice signal to a preparatory starting device so that the preparatory starting device performs a starting operation. After the starting operation is finished, the preparatory starting device sends an operation command and/or operation power to a starting unit. The starting unit would not pass the operation command and/or the operation power to a receiving end until receiving a control signal.

10. A method for controlling a control system, the control system comprising a sensor, a preparatory starting device, a starting unit and a receiving end, the method comprising:
-
the sensor sending a notice signal to the preparatory starting device when the sensor receives a sensing signal when a user moves to within a predetermined distance from the sensor; the preparatory starting device performing a preparatory starting operation when the preparatory starting device receives the notice signal; the preparatory starting device sending an operation command and/or an operation power to the starting unit when the preparatory starting device finishes performing the starting operation; and the starting unit sending the operation command and/or the operation power to the receiving end for the receiving end to perform a functional starting operation for the control system to enter an operation-allowed mode for the receiving end to perform a receiving end operation only when the starting unit receives a control signal; wherein the preparatory starting operation consumes less power than the functional starting operation, and the preparatory starting operation comprises a motor increasing a rotational speed to a specific speed and/or a plurality of devices establishing handshake protocol among one another. - View Dependent Claims (11)

12. A method for controlling a control system, the control system comprising a sensor, a preparatory starting device, a starting unit and a receiving end, the method comprising:
-
the sensor sending a notice signal to the preparatory starting device when the sensor receives a sensing signal when a user moves to within a predetermined distance from the sensor; the preparatory starting device performing a preparatory starting operation when the preparatory starting device receives the notice signal; the preparatory starting device sending an operation command and/or an operation power to the starting unit when the preparatory starting device finishes performing the starting operation; the starting unit informing the preparatory starting device to stop sending the operation command and/or the operation power to the starting unit and the receiving end not performing a functional starting operation when the starting unit does not receive a control signal after a predetermined time interval; wherein the functional starting operation is for the for the control system to enter an operation-allowed mode for the receiving end to perform the receiving end operation, and the preparatory starting operation consumes less power than the functional starting operation, and the preparatory starting operation comprises a motor increasing a rotational speed to a specific speed and/or a plurality of devices establishing handshake protocol among one another.
