PURPOSE:To open a path at the 2nd start of this system by allowing an initializing means to initialize the information of a protocol information storage means when a means monitoring the time detects that a data stored in a means storing a data is not transferred to an information processing equipment within a specified time. CONSTITUTION:When the information processing equipment enters inoperation state, the interruption of timeout is caused from a timer circuit 310 before the start of processing (such as reception of data). In this state, a channel interface microprocessor 38 informs to a main processor 31 that the information processing equipment is inoperative. The state of communication resource stored in control memories 34, 32, 36 is initialized by control memory information storing protocol control, stored the data and the state of low-order level path. Thus, even in the case of 2nd start of the system, the communication is implemented normally without a problem. |
