Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a device working in response to light that has no need to transmit electrical signals by obtaining the electric power by giving the photoelectric conversion to the optical signal sent via an optical fiber and also delivering the air pressure signals by the impulsive signal contained in the optical signal. CONSTITUTION:An optical signal having information on the interval between pulses is transmitted to an operation side AC from a transmission terminal via an optical fiber OF. This optical signal is converted into an electrical signal through a photoelectric conversion part 3 and then supplied as the working power of a pulse width signal converter 4. At the same time, a pulse signal is supplied to the converter 4. The converter 4 measures the intervals Tx and Ts among pulses and also calculates Tx/Ts to deliver signal ei as the result of said calculation. A pulse width generating circuit 43 supplies the deviation epsilon between the signal ei and a feedback signal ef sent from an air pressure electrical conversion means 9. Then a pulse interval signal having plus and minus set opposite to each other and a pulse interval Td corresponding to the deviation epsilon is switched according to the code of the deviation epsilon, and the signals are delivered from two output terminals to give ON/OFF control to air pressure switches 5 and 6.
