Abstract: A method of installing add-on memories capable of setting continuous addresses over the add-on memories and already existing memories comprises the steps of selecting a desired memory mounting portion among a plurality of memory mounting portions, judging the presence or absence of each memory in the selected memory mounting portion, and setting top and end addresses in the memory mounting portion so that the address of each memory mounted on the selected memory mounting portion continues to addresses of the memories mounted on other memory mounting portions when it is judged that each memory is mounted on the selected memory mounting portion.

Abstract: An optical connector in which a pair of ceramic optical plugs having optical fibers extending coaxially therethrough are fitted within a ceramic sleeve. In one embodiment, an inner surface of the sleeve is provided with a longitudinal groove extending from one end of the sleeve to the other so that air and dust will be expelled from the sleeve when plugs are inserted therein. A housing may be provided around the sleeve with a flange being formed on the housing. In another embodiment, a protective cover is provided surrounding each plug which is movable axially along the plug.
