Abstract

A memory designation control device having a rewriting program for rewriting the contents of a first memory device storing a basic program stored in a second memory device different from the first memory device. When the system power supply is turned on when a normal processing mode is selected, only the first memory device out of the first memory device and the second memory device is brought into a selectable state. Consequently, in the normal processing mode, normal processing is executed on the basis of the basic program. When the system power supply is turned on when a rewrite processing mode is selected, only the second memory device out of the first memory device and the second memory device is brought into a selectable state at the time of a read instruction, while only the first memory device out of the first memory device and the second memory device is brought into a selectable state at the time of a write instruction. Consequently, in the rewrite processing mode, rewrite processing is executed on the basis of the rewriting program.
