Abstract: A first electrical device includes: a second radio signal receiver that receives target device information; a second processor that determines whether or not the first electrical device is included in the target device information and the first electrical device is connected to a network or whether or not a second electrical device capable of communicating with the first electrical device is included in the target device information and the second electrical device capable of communicating with the first electrical device is connected to the network; and a transmitter that, when a result of the determination by the second processor indicates that the first electrical device or the second electrical device is included in the target device information, transmits information indicating that the first electrical device or the second electrical device is the search-target device, as a response using a communication method based on the result of the determination.
