Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatic initialization by incorporating a read-only memory, and providing this insertion part with a key having ROM control terminals for controlling the memory and a lock which has electrodes contacting said terminals and is associated with a power switch. CONSTITUTION:The key 10 incorporates the read-only memory 20 and is covered with an insulating material except at the ROM control terminals 30. The lock 40 is rotatably only when the key 10 is inserted into the lock hole completely and the ROM control terminals 30 contact the ROM control line electrodes 5 at that time. When the key 10 is rotated in said state, the power switch 60 rotates to connect power lines 70. The computer is actuated by being powered on to read the contents of the read-only memory 20 through the ROM control line electrodes 50 and ROM control terminals 30 and necessary settings are made automatically.
