Original Abstract Submitted

An air conditioner device includes a first and second communication lines configured to provide communications between a first slave device and a master device through a voltage difference. The master device having a voltage sensor configured to sense a voltage between the ends of the two communication lines and a processor configured to, based on the sensed voltage being less than or equal to a preset voltage, transmit a command to perform connection control such that one of a first resistor on a side of the master device and a third resistor on a side of the first slave device serves as a pull-up resistor, and to perform connection control such that at least one of a second resistor on a side of the master device and a fourth resistor on a side of the first slave device serves as a pull-down resistor.
