Wireless communication equipment and connection processing method
First Claim
1. Wireless communication equipment which performs association through wireless communication with peripheral equipment present in a prescribed range, comprising:
- a storage unit configured to store identification code information which identifies the peripheral equipment as regards already associated peripheral equipment;
an acquisition unit configured to acquire identification code information which identifies the associated peripheral equipment from the peripheral equipment present in the prescribed range;
a determination unit configured to determine whether or not the peripheral equipment has been associated on the basis of identification code information stored in the storage unit;
an association unit configured to associate the identification code information acquired by the acquisition unit with a prescribed image and to store the identification code information and the prescribed image, when it is determined that the peripheral equipment has not been associated by the determination unit;
a display unit configured to display the prescribed image information which is associated with the identification code information acquired by the acquisition unit and is stored in the storage unit, when it is determined that the peripheral equipment has been associated by the determination unit;
a selection unit configured to select image displayed by the display unit; and
a connection processing unit configured to perform processing which connects the wireless communication equipment to the peripheral equipment corresponding to the identification code information associated with the image selected by the selection unit.

Abstract
Wireless communication equipment which associates with a plurality of sets of peripheral equipment present in a prescribed range through wireless communication stores identification code information regarding the associated peripheral equipment, acquires identification code information from the peripheral equipment present in the prescribed range, and determines whether or not the peripheral equipment has already associated on the basis of the identification code information. If the peripheral equipment has not been associated, the wireless communication equipment stores the identification code information by associating them with an image. If the peripheral equipment has been associated, the wireless communication equipment displays the associated image stored by associating them with the acquired identification code information, and connects to the corresponding peripheral equipment in response to the selection of the displayed and associated image.

6. A connection processing method of wireless communication equipment which performs association through wireless communication with peripheral equipment present in a prescribed range, comprising:
-
acquiring identification code information which specifies the peripheral equipment from the peripheral equipment present in the prescribed range; displaying the identification code information when there is no image stored by associating with the acquired identification code information; displaying, when there is the image stored by associating with the acquired identification code information, the associated and stored image; storing, when the displayed identification code information is selected, the selected identification code information by associating with the prescribed image; and connecting, when the displayed image is selected, the wireless communication equipment to the peripheral equipment corresponding to the identification code information associated with the selected image.
