PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To secure originality of a peripheral device requiring no installing operation by performing communication with an external electronic equipment via a home bus, requesting the electronic equipment to transmit the user interface information necessary for the control of the electronic equipment, and storing the user interface information. SOLUTION: When an AV equipment 121 is purchased and installed, the equipment 121 is connected to a PC module 1 via a 1394-cable 6. Then the user interface information which has been previously stored in the equipment 121 is transferred and stored into the module 1 via the cable 6, when the module 1 performs its control. As a result, it is not required to give the software to the module 1 for its control, when the equipment 121 is installed. Transferring of the control software enables operation for even a module that has been added for the addition of new function. |
