Abstract
When the power source of a personal computer is on (S :ON) and when the communication software of the personal computer is running (S :YES), then the reception speed of transmission data serially transmitted from a remote device is written in the reception speed counter in S . The size of a single packet of transmission data, to be transferred to the personal computer, in changed based on the value stored in the reception speed counter. Accordingly, for any value of the reception speed, a transfer interval can be maintained in a fixed value so that the communication software in the personal computer will generate no time-out error signal.
