Abstract
It becomes possible for a user to set a transmission or reception channel arbitrarily and easily. Each of equipment connected to an IEEE 1394 bus may include a register provided within a RAMto thereby set a transmission or reception default channel. If channels used in the transmission and the reception are not set when the transmission is started, then default channel may be used. When equipment is set to a channel setting mode by operating an operation section, a control sectionmay display a channel setting picture on a display section. In this state, a user may select a set channel by operating an up-keyand a down-keyof the operation section. Thereafter, when a user operates a 'YES' key, the control sectionmay write a selected channel in the above-mentioned register, and ends a default channel setting operation. A user can set the transmission or reception channel arbitrarily and easily.
