Abstract
A communication device for communicating via a telecommunication line includes a plurality of operating units, an energy-saving control unit, an instruction receiver, and a wake-up unit. The plurality of operating units are configured to receive an electric power and operate. The energy-saving control unit is configured to alternatively run a normal mode or an energy saving mode. The instruction receiver is configured to receive an instruction for selecting the operating unit that processes target data. The selection instruction is transmitted from a transmission device connected via the electric communication line prior to the transmission of the target data. The wake-up unit is configured to supply the electric power to the operating unit so as to wake up the operating unit from the sleep state upon receiving the selection instruction during the energy saving mode if the operating unit instructed by the selection instruction is in the sleep state.
