If data is to be written to the wireless tag 101, the process proceeds to step # 57, where the data read from the memory 14 is transmitted via the communication unit 18 and the antenna 21 and written to the wireless tag 101. Thus, the write data and the additional information are written into the wireless tag 101 based on the setup data. In step # 58, the data written in the wireless tag 101 is verified to determine whether or not the data has been written normally.
- step # 76 If the power is not correctly written to the wireless tag 101, the number of times of writing is counted in step # 76. Then, returning to step # 57, writing is repeatedly performed. If it is determined in step # 76 that the writing is not performed normally even after the predetermined number of writings, the process proceeds to step # 77. In step # 77, the LED 11 flashes to notify the user that the writing was not performed normally. The notification may be provided by a display such as a liquid crystal panel or an organic EL instead of the LED 11. Then, go to step # 64. After a predetermined time has elapsed in step # 64, the LED 11 is turned off in step # 65, and the apparatus returns to the sleep state in step # 66.
- step # 58 If the data has been normally written to the wireless tag 101 in step # 58, the process proceeds to step # 59 to determine whether to read the data of the wireless tag 101 based on the setup data. If the data of the wireless tag 101 is not to be read, the process proceeds to step # 62. When reading the data of the wireless tag 101, the data stored in the wireless tag 101 is received in step # 60. This allows the Stamp 1 side to manage which document Stamp 1 was pressed.
- step # 61 the received data is written to the memory 14.
