Short-range wireless communication apparatus
First Claim
1. A short-range wireless communication apparatus comprising:
- a own connection device that is capable of connecting a communication protocol including a first communication protocol and a second communication protocol to a communication destination side connection device that, upon receipt of a connection request signal of the communication protocol via a short-range wireless communication line, transmits a connection permission response signal of the communication protocol or a connection rejection response signal of the communication protocol via the short-range wireless communication line in accordance with a user operation; and
a control device that, when determining that a request to connect the second communication protocol is generated while the own connection device is waiting for receipt of the connection permission response signal of the first communication protocol or the connection rejection response signal of the first communication protocol after transmission of the connection request signal of the first communication protocol from the own connection device to the communication destination side connection device via the short-range wireless communication line,stops the own connection device from waiting for the receipt of the connection permission response signal of the first communication protocol or the connection rejection response signal of the first communication protocol from the communication destination side connection device andcauses the own connection device to transmit the connection request signal of the second communication protocol to the communication destination side connection device via the short-range wireless communication line.

Abstract
A short-range wireless communication apparatus including a connection device and a control device is disclosed. The connection device is capable of connecting a communication protocol to a communication destination device. After transmitting a connection request signal of a first protocol to the communication destination device, the connection device waits for receipt of a response signal. When a request to connect a second protocol is generated while the connection device is waiting for receipt of a response signal, the control device causes the connection device to interrupt waiting for the receipt of the response signal and transmits the connection request signal of the second protocol to the communication destination device.
