DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING COMBUSTION APPARATUS

PURPOSE:To improve the operational convenience by providing a main body equipped with an electronic control device, a remote control for controlling the main body, and a means to perform power source control by the use of a means to detect currents in the connecting lines. CONSTITUTION:By turning on a power source switch 34 in the remote control 29 voltages are impressed to a microcomputer 31, its peripheral circuits, and a pilot lamp 36 all in the remote control and a current is made to flow in the lines 28 connecting a main body 22 and the remote control 29. The current is detected by means of a current detective means 27 in an electronic control device in the main body 22. Consequently voltages are impressed to a microcomputer 24 and its peripheral circuits in the main body 22 so as to set the main body 22 in operation. By turning off the power source switch 34 the supply of power to the microcomputer 31 and so on is stopped and a current does not flow in the lines 28 and hence the current detective means 27 detects no current. Consequently the supply of voltages to the main body 22 is stopped. This constitution thus enables controlling the main body by means of the remote control so that an improvement in convenience can be achieved.
