Embodiment 1

[0044] figure 2 with image 3 A configuration example of the adapter 200 and the device 300 is shown. In addition, the adapter 200 and the device 300 can be realized by CPU, memory, other LSI, etc. of any computer in terms of hardware. In addition, the software can be realized by a program or the like having a recording control function loaded in a memory. figure 2 with image 3 Functional blocks of the adapter 200 and the device 300 realized by hardware and software are represented. However, of course, these functional blocks may be realized in various forms such as only hardware, only software, or a combination of these.

[0045] refer to figure 2 , the adapter 200 includes a display unit 201, a main processing unit 202, a device type / operation mode detection processing unit 203, a device information holding unit 204, a rewriting processing unit 205, a network communication processing unit 206, a communication control unit 207, a serial I / F (interface) 208 and I / F c...

Embodiment 2

[0080] In the above-mentioned embodiment 1, in Figure 4 In S111 and S112, it is confirmed whether there is a rewriting request to the device (PC) 300, but it can also be Figure 5 As shown, after omitting this confirmation process, it goes directly to the object acquisition process (S113).

[0081] For example, by returning a predetermined special device code to the inquiry of the device type carried out in S101, the adapter 200 detects whether the device (PC) 300 is in the target Naga rewriting state. That is, if the response to S101 contains a special device code, omit Figure 4 The processing of S111 and S112, and directly execute the processing after S113, if the special equipment code is not included, then the same as the above Figure 4 The processing is the same as that of S111 and S112, and the processing after S113 is executed after the confirmation processing of whether or not there is a rewriting request is performed in S111 and S112. Thereby, unnecessary inquir...

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To propose a general-purpose adaptor device usable even for various types of apparatuses. SOLUTION: When the adaptor 200 is attached on an apparatus, apparatus type information is returned from the apparatus on a request from a main processing unit 202. An apparatus type / operation mode detection processing unit 203 detects the apparatus type of this apparatus from the received apparatus type information. If the apparatus is one other than a PC, it is determined whether an object mounted on a network communication processing unit 206 corresponds to this apparatus, and if it corresponds, network processing is performed by this object. If it does not correspond, the apparatus type information received from the apparatus is stored in an apparatus information storing unit 204. After that, when the adaptor 200 is attached on the PC, the apparatus type information in the unit 204 is transmitted to the PC. If the corresponding object is returned in this way, the object is rewritten into an object of the unit 206. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an adapter device that provides a local network function to a device by being loaded on the device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, a so-called network home appliance system that controls home appliances via a local network has been proposed and standardized. This system connects a controller such as a local server to a local network, and controls the target device by sending control commands from the controller. [0003] Here, the communication between the controller and the device is carried out using communication protocols such as ECHONET, UPnP, and SCP. In addition, as a communication network, a power supply line for supplying power to each device, a wireless communication network, or the like is used. For example, by connecting the universal jack of the equipment and the universal jack of the controller to the power supply terminals, the equipment and the controller are connected via a feeder line...
