ABSTRACT:
A power conservation device includes a detection unit for detecting a status of the power conservation device; a detection unit power source for supplying power to the detection unit; an operation control unit for controlling an operation of the power conservation device according to output information from the detection unit; an operation unit power source for supplying power to the operation control unit; an information processing unit for processing specific information and controlling the operation unit power source; and a monitoring unit for monitoring a change in the output information of the detection unit. The detection unit power source supplies power to the detection unit intermittently when the operation unit power source stops supplying power to the operation control unit. The information processing unit controls the operation unit power source to supply power to the operation unit when the monitoring unit detects the change in the output information of the detection unit.
