Abstract
A communication method controlling system includes a control apparatus and a writing apparatus. The writing apparatus includes a function that employs plural communication methods. When a user selects content by manipulating an operation terminal, a control apparatus detects the content ID, and transmits corresponding content data and communication method information to the writing apparatus. Based on the received content data, the writing apparatus writes the contents data and displays a content image on electronic paper, and changes a communication method according to the received communication method information and uses an LED lamp, for example, to notify the user which communication method has been selected. When the user performs an operation according to the available communication method, information is transmitted from the writing apparatus to a port using the communication method.
