Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent malfunction of a device caused by mis-mounting by prohibiting read out when a device code signal fails to conform to a device identification code. CONSTITUTION:A device 1 is provided with a device code signal generator 4 which transmits a code signal inherent to the device while a non-volatile memory mounted on a package 2 has a region 5 to store a device identification code which identifies a device to which the package 2 must be installed. When the package 2 is installed, the codes inherent to the device which must be transmitted by a device code signal generator 4 is compared with the device identification codes stored in the region 5 of the non-volatile memory 3 on a comparator 6 so that the result may be transmitted to a read out prohibition signal generator 7. Only when both the codes fail to conform to each other, a read out prohibition signal is transmitted to the non-volatile memory 3 so that the memory 3 prohibit the read out of control data.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method for preventing malfunction due to incorrect mounting of a package of a digital signal transmission device or the like.

Conventionally, in digital signal transmission devices whose operation is controlled by control data pre-stored in non-volatile memory mounted in a removable package, malfunctions may occur due to the package being incorrectly mounted in a location other than where it was originally intended. In order to prevent this from occurring, a method is used in which the shape of the package itself is changed for each mounting location, thereby making it physically impossible to mount it in locations other than those where it should be mounted.

The above-mentioned conventional method for preventing malfunctions due to incorrect package mounting prevents a package with non-volatile memory, which should have been mounted, from being mistakenly mounted elsewhere and the control data stored in the non-volatile memory being read out. To prevent this, we have adopted a method of changing the shape of the corresponding package for each mounting location, so even if the functionality is the same, the only difference is the content of the control data stored in the on-board non-volatile memory. However, the disadvantage is that the shape of the package must be changed in many ways.

The method for preventing malfunctions due to incorrect mounting of the present invention includes a device having a device code signal generating section that emits a code signal uniquely assigned to the device, and a device identification code that is detachable from the device and indicates a device that can be mounted. A package equipped with a non-volatile memory having a storage area, and a comparison to determine whether or not the device identification code read from the non-volatile memory and the code signal issued from the device code signal generator match. and a read prohibition signal generating section that prohibits reading of control data from the nonvolatile memory only when the comparison result in the comparing section is a mismatch.

The read inhibit signal generator 7 reads the control data stored in the non-volatile memory 3 through the bus B only when the comparison result sent from the comparator 6 indicates a mismatch between the two codes. A read prohibition signal is issued to prohibit reading from the non-volatile memory 3.

As explained above, the present invention has a device code signal generation section that emits a code signal unique to the device, and identifies a device location in which a package in which the nonvolatile memory is mounted is to be mounted in an area within the nonvolatile memory. The system stores the device identification code to identify the device, and compares the two codes to see if they match. If it is determined that they do not match, the system prevents errors by prohibiting reading of the control data stored in non-volatile memory. This has the effect of preventing device malfunctions due to mounting.
