Summary:There is a strong demand for a technique that enable plural terminal devices (101, 102, ..., 10n) to be easily paired with plural mobile terminal units (201, 202, ..., 20m) possessed by their respective users in a room where the terminal devices that can be shared among the users are installed. Each terminal device searches for mobile terminals present within the wireless range. If the plural mobile terminal units are present within a searchable area, the search result indicates plural mobile terminal units, making it difficult to determine with what mobile terminal unit should the terminal device be paired. The current states of various sensors of the mobile terminal units are included in information indicating the names of the mobile terminal units and are searched by the terminal device. Under circumstances where the plural terminal devices (101, 102, ..., 10n) and the plural mobile terminal units (201, 202, ..., 20m) exist within short distances, the mobile terminal unit to be paired with the terminal device can be found with ease. Subsequently, the start of use of the terminal device is facilitated.
