Patent number: 6694363Abstract: A DCM/FCM manager detects the coincidence of modules by comparing a device control module and a device function module transferred from a DCM/FCM memory of other device with a content in the inside of a DCM/FCM memory of its own device. One of coincident modules is deleted and this deletion is stored in the DCM/FCM memory. The DCM/FCM manager generates link information for making use of the deleted module and makes a registry store the link information. In case of controlling the other device, a control part reads out the module from the DCM/FCM memory based on the link information of the registry and generates a command based on the read-out module and transfers the command to the other device. Accordingly, the network equipment can control devices on the network with the least memory capacity.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2000Date of Patent: February 17, 2004Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Shinji Yamadaji, Takehiko Okuyama

Patent number: 6366630Abstract: An apparatus which can achieve a synchronous dubbing and can record new data at a position just after data previously recorded without an unnatural gap and without using a buffer memory with large capacity. A reference signal from a cylinder servo circuit/tape transport servo circuit of a transmitter is converted into an isochronous packet. The packet is sent out from a digital interface transmitting circuit to a 1394 cable. On the reception side, an isochronous packet converter circuit restores a received isochronous packet into an original reference signal and sends it to the cylinder servo circuit/tape transport servo circuit. By so doing, the transmitter and the receiver are synchronized with each other, and it becomes possible to achieve a synchronous dubbing and to record new data at a position just after data previously recorded without an unnatural gap. Then the transmitter sends out dubbing data and the receiver receives it.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 1998Date of Patent: April 2, 2002Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventor: Takehiko Okuyama

Patent number: 6289169Abstract: A controller makes a demultiplexer select a transport stream corresponding to user's operation, and supplies it to a VTR through an I/F circuit. The I/F circuit of the VTR gives the transport stream to a recording/reproducing unit for recording, and transmits EIT data to a TV to supply them to a program guide GUI generating part. The GUI generating part generates GUI data based on the inputted EIT data, and makes them stored in a cassette memory using a cassette memory unit of the VTR. At the time of reproduction, GUI data read by the cassette memory unit is supplied to the program guide GUI generating part, and a program guide display of programs recorded on a cassette tape is displayed. In this manner, guide information on programs recorded on a cassette tape is automatically displayed.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 1999Date of Patent: September 11, 2001Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventor: Takehiko Okuyama

Patent number: 6256390Abstract: A copy flag detecting circuit in a device detects the copy generation management information. This copy generation management information is inserted in the CIP header of the IEEE 1394 packet for transmission. The copy flag detector of the 1394 interface in the device detects the copy generation management information in the CIP header. According to the detection result, the copy generation managing circuit records new copy generation management information and the recording controlling circuit permits or prohibits recording. Thus, there is no need for a decoding circuit at a receiving device.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 1999Date of Patent: July 3, 2001Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Takehiko Okuyama, Kenji Shimoda, Kenjiro Endoh

Patent number: 6163428Abstract: A microcomputer reads out cassette management information from an integrated-circuit memory on a cassette to give the same to a digital interface formatter. The digital interface formatter outputs the cassette management information by a digital interface format which packages reproduced digital image and audio signals from an error correction circuit and a sub-code and the cassette management information. Upon dubbing recording, a separation circuit extracts the cassette management information from a dubbing input to give the same to the microcomputer. On the basis of the inputted cassette management information, the microcomputer creates cassette management information corresponding to a program to be dubbed to store the same into the integrated-circuit memory. In this manner, upon dubbing, the image and audio information is recorded onto a tape and the cassette management information is automatically recorded onto the integrated-circuit memory. Thus, the user may avoid a complicated information input task.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 1999Date of Patent: December 19, 2000Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventor: Takehiko Okuyama

Patent number: 6157650Abstract: Node c, which is connected by two different protocols, that is, the IEEE 1394 as a line transmission system and the radio transmission system, becomes the bus manager through bus arbitration, and allocates ID to each of nodes a to d in the network. In data transmission, the transmission rate informing part in node c informs each of nodes a to c of the maximum rate in the radio transmission system. The communication procedure converting part and the signaling type converting part in node c convert into the communication procedure and the signaling type suitable for the radio transmission system, and transmit the converted data to node d in the radio network through a communicating part for transmission system B, thereby enabling real time data transmission.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 1997Date of Patent: December 5, 2000Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Takehiko Okuyama, Jun Okazaki, Hiroaki Kobayashi
