Abstract
A portable terminal having a wireless local area network (WLAN) communication module configured to perform wireless communication in a WLAN and a near field communication (NFC) module configured to read written data written to an integrated circuit (IC) tag includes: a memory configured to record format identification data for identifying a data format of the written data; and a control unit configured to detect whether the written data read using the NFC module has a predetermined format based on the format identification data, detect whether the written data is WLAN setup data for use in an imaging-apparatus-side WLAN module, and write command data for instructing to activate an access point (AP) function of the imaging-apparatus-side WLAN module to the IC tag using the NFC module when it is detected that the written data detected as having the predetermined format is the WLAN setup data.
