  • Patent number: 9219763
    Abstract: A network system is provided. The network system includes: a first component having a first device code and performing a predetermined function; and a second component having a second device code and exchanging information with the first component for communication connection. One of the first and second components receives a command for the communication connection and generates a connection sequence. The component generating the connection sequence exchanges communication addresses and device codes with the other component receiving the connection sequence. If the information has not been exchanged between the first component and the second component during a predetermined time, the first component and the second component are switched to a communication connection standby mode.
