<p>A transfer-rate computing part computes a transfer rate of an output from a DVTR part to output the same through a packet conversion part. Child units which are newly connected to a bus output data of the transfer rate subsequent to a request command of a bus use right. A total transfer-rate computing part of a parent unit computes a total transfer rate of the data which are transmitted through the bus. An arbitration control part judges whether or not the total transfer rate exceeds the maximum transfer rate which is set in the bus. Only in a case where the total transfer rate does not exceed the maximum transfer rate, a command transmission part issues a bus use permission right, to cause the data to be sent from newly connected child units. In this manner, in a case where a new equipment is connected to the bus and also in a case where connection of the bus is turned off, synchronous transfer is assured. <IMAGE></p> |
