Abstract
When a state of a radio communication device corresponds to a predetermined state, a communication control unit operates in the first mode to communicate according to the BLE standard, while when the radio communication device does not receive connect request packets, the communication control unit operates in the second mode to communicate. A rewrite switching unit switches to a rewritable state when the communication control unit operates in the first mode and to a rewriting prohibited state when the communication control unit operates in the second mode. The first mode is a mode for updating. In the first mode, the communication control unit transmits a notification for limiting the communication to the updating in an establishment process of the communication. The second mode is a mode for performing processing other than the updating. In the second mode, the communication control unit does not transmit the notification.
