Benefits of technology
[0009] Therefore, it is an object of this invention to provide electronic equipment or the like in which a transmission channel and a reception channel can be set arbitrarily and easily.
Problems solved by technology
However, since conventional electronic equipment comprising the above-mentioned communication system are difficult to actively discover equipment to be connected, any of electronic equipment may use the same channel in advance.
Although this 61883-1 standard has prepared a function (2) capable of designating another channel by rewriting this default channel, this standard is unable to set a channel of reception equipment.
Accordingly, when the above-mentioned function (1) is not in use, if some method of operating a channel is not determined, then it is not possible to execute a transmission using a plurality of channels.

Embodiment Construction
[0043] An embodiment according to this invention will hereinafter be described with reference to the drawings.
[0044]FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings shows in block form a communication system 100 in which a plurality of electronic equipment serving as IEEE 1394 nodes may be connected to an IEEE 1394 bus. This communication system 100 may be arranged by connecting DVCRs (digital video cassette recorders) 102, 103, monitors 104, 105, a satellite broadcast receiver 106, a VTR (video tape recorder) 107 and a PC (personal computer) 108 to an IEEE 1394 bus 101.
[0045] In general, the IEEE 1394 node 110 may comprise an IEEE 1394 communication section 111, a control section 112, a RAM (random-access memory) 113, a ROM (read-only memory) 114, a display section 115 and an operation section 116 as shown in FIG. 2. Under control of the control section 112, the IEEE 1394 communication section 111 may assemble data supplied from the control section 112 into packets, may transmit this IEEE 139...

It becomes possible for a user to set a transmission or reception channel arbitrarily and easily. Each of equipment connected to an IEEE 1394 bus may include a register provided within a RAM 113 to thereby set a transmission or reception default channel. If channels used in the transmission and the reception are not set when the transmission is started, then default channel may be used. When equipment is set to a channel setting mode by operating an operation section 116, a control section 112 may display a channel setting picture on a display section 115. In this state, a user may select a set channel by operating an up-key 116a and a down-key 116b of the operation section 116. Thereafter, when a user operates a “YES” key 116c, the control section 112 may write a selected channel in the above-mentioned register, and ends a default channel setting operation. A user can set the transmission or reception channel arbitrarily and easily.
