Abstract:
A transmission device includes: a storage unit that holds test data used for checking occurrence/nonoccurrence of a communication abnormality; a serial conversion unit that converts image data to be transmitted and the test data stored in the storage unit into serial data; a transmission unit that transmits the serial data converted by the serial conversion unit to a reception device; and an initialization unit that, when an instruction of particular initialization is inputted, performs initialization on other circuits than the storage unit without performing initialization on the storage unit.
Abstract:
An adapter capable of communicating with an image supply device and an image output device and allowing direct printing even when a plurality of images are transferred at the same time from image supply devices. The adapter transmits a print request associated with a first image to the image output device. If acquisition of a second image is completed before acquisition of the first image completed, the adapter transfers the second image instead of the first image as the image to be printed.
Abstract:
In an image display device figured to be connected to a network, a method of communicating over the network with a remote device on the network is disclosed. The method includes receiving a message sent to a multicast address on the network by the remote device, wherein the message includes an instruction to the image display device to perform a function; and performing the function instructed by the message.
Abstract:
A multiple control station (201) transmits a first broadcast frame including a first identifier for identifying a first host (202) and a second broadcast frame including a second identifier for identifying a second host (203) to a terminal station (52) over a wireless channel using time division. The multiple control station then receives a connection request frame that requests connection with the first host (202) or the second host (203) from the terminal station (52). Arbitration is then performed so that the terminal station is connected to the first host or the second host in accordance with the first identifier or the second identifier included in the received connection request frame.
Abstract:
An interface for facilitating facsimile transmission via a wireless communications device operatively connected to a wireless communications network, including: a modem suitable for being communicatively coupled to a facsimile machine; a controller coupled to the modem; and, a memory operatively coupled to the controller. The interface includes code to cause the modem to transmit a retrain request to the facsimile machine upon expiration of a given temporal period. The interface includes a circuit for selectively generating a ring signal corresponding to a plain old telephone service ring signal. The interface includes a circuit for selectively generating a hold signal corresponding to a plain old telephone service hold signal. And, the circuit includes code to cause the modem to transmit data indicative of white lines to the facsimile machine upon expiration of a given temporal period.
Abstract:
A relaying apparatus of the present invention is interposed between a device and a printer and controls the operation of the device by checking the status of the printer. The relaying apparatus has a microcomputer that causes an IrDA unit to negotiate with a printer. The printer has a microcomputer that associates a setting state of a print data correction switch with an equipment name and gives the equipment name to the relaying apparatus when a negotiation begins. The microcomputer of the relaying apparatus performs image processing based on the equipment name obtained from the printer and does not request the device to send new image data while the printer is operating according to the setting state of the print data correction switch.

Abstract:
An operation display apparatus includes: an operating unit; a display unit; a position detecting unit configured to detect a position of a predetermined portable terminal; a free region detecting unit configured to detect a free region on a display screen of at least one of the display unit and the portable terminal; and an operation control unit configured to display an image of the operating unit in the free region when the position of the portable terminal detected by the position detecting unit is in front of a front side of the operating unit, and accept an operation performed on the image, as an operation received by the operating unit, the free region being detected by the free region detecting unit.
Abstract:
A main body portion provided with a document stand on which a document is placed and a reading unit; a cover which opens and closes the document stand; and a near field communication unit on the inside of the cover, are provided.
Abstract:
A relaying device may be configured to communicate with an image processing device and a server device via a network. The server device may be configured to store uploaded data. The relaying device may receive, from the image processing device, selected data format instruction information. The relaying device may execute a conversion processing when the upload data is data in a first format and the data format identified by the selected data format instruction information is a second format, or when the upload data is data in a third format and the data format identified by the selected data format instruction information is not the third format. The relaying device may receive the upload data and convert the received upload data into converted data in the data format identified by the selected data format instruction information. The relaying device may transmit the converted data to the server device.
