  • Publication number: 20110004697
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a electronic apparatus includes a coupler, a communication module configured to execute, with use of the coupler, wireless communication with an external device, and a file transmission module configured to execute file transmission with the external device by controlling the communication module. The file transmission module includes a module configured to receive from the external device a path designation command, which includes a header designating a folder name, in a push protocol, a module configured to receive from the external device a file by a push command for pushing data in the push protocol, and a module configured to use the folder name designated by the path designation command, thereby grouping the file that is received by the push command after the path designation command.

  • Publication number: 20100268929
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic device that is configured to be removably connected to a host device includes a first storage module, a first determination module, and a setting change module. The first storage module stores a data file received from the host device. Each time a data file is newly stored in the first storage module, the first determination module determines whether the data file contains setting instruction information instructing to change a setting of the electronic device. When the first determination module determines that the data file contains the setting instruction information, the setting change module changes the setting of the electronic device as instructed by the setting instruction information.

  • Publication number: 20050191999
    Abstract: Since the device priority order table T1 defining the priority order corresponding to the device which a user usually uses is stored in the remote control apparatus 1, the remote control apparatus 1 can be promptly connected to the device with the high priority. Also even in case it is connected to the other device and performs the key input processing to the other device, when the key input is not carried out for a predetermined time, the connection to the device with the higher priority is automatically recovered. Even if a plurality of connections are simultaneously supported, a prompt operation can be performed without a user's recognition of a time lag to the key input processing.

  • Patent number: 6721556
    Abstract: A radio communication apparatus for performing the authentication processing with another apparatus via radio communication, comprises an antenna section composed to be detachably fitted to the apparatus, a connection section for detecting the detachment of the antenna section, and a control section for performing the authentication processing upon the detection of detachment of the antenna section by the connection section. Electric wave release and reception efficiency can be attenuated considerably, and the authentication information is prevented from arriving at an unspecified other party, as the control section passes to the authentication processing in connection with the detachment of the antenna section from the apparatus, and the antenna section is already detached when the authentication processing starts.

  • Publication number: 20020147005
    Abstract: In an information processing apparatus including a radio communication section, a main control section, and a sub-control section, the sub-control section has some functions of radio communication. The sub-control section is, for example, a power supply microcomputer. When an external radio device issues a connection request for radio communication to the radio communication section, the sub-control section performs a process corresponding to the connection request if the process can be performed in accordance with the type or process contents of the device. If the sub-control section cannot perform the process, the main control section starts up and performs the process.
