- the state determination unit 14 of the access device 1 determines that the type A memory card 2 has been inserted by receiving an error response to the state acquisition request.
- the access device 1 completes the preparation for accessing the memory card, and waits for an input to the operation unit 12 (S1003).
- an interrupt signal is input to the main processing unit 15, and the main processing unit 15 determines the type of the command input by the user (S1004). If the input instruction is an end instruction (Yes in S1005), necessary end processing such as saving the memory is executed, and the power supply of the access device 1 is cut off.
- the input command is not an end command (No in S1005), it is determined whether the input command is a command that instructs a state-dependent process in which different processes are performed for each state (S1005). S1006).
- the state-dependent process unit 16 performs a state-dependent process (S 1007).
- the state-dependent processing unit 16 refers to the state determination result of the state determination unit 14 and executes a state-dependent process whose execution content differs depending on the type and state of the memory card. That is, the screen displayed on the access device 1 and the output command differ depending on the state of the memory card.
- the main processing unit 15 executes a common processing (main processing) independent of the type of the memory card (S1008). ). When the main processing is completed, the main processing unit 15 returns to a state of waiting for an input from the user again.
- the state acquisition (S 1002) and the state-dependent processing (S 1007) are the processes that characterize the present invention.
- the access device 1 of the present invention acquires the state of the memory card after the memory card is inserted into the access device 1, and changes the content of the processing to be executed as necessary based on the acquired state. This makes it possible to change the processing of the access device according to the type and state of each memory card, and to provide the user with processing suitable for each memory card.
- FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 a specific example of the state-dependent processing by the access device 1 of the present invention will be described. A typical example will be described.
- FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a state list held by the state determination unit 14.

- the state list includes a type of memory card and information for uniquely identifying the state, a type of the memory card, an access area indicating an accessible area in the memory card, a capacity of the accessible area, It stores the number of states allowed for the type of card, information indicating whether or not the format is necessary at the time of state switching, and the type of file system.
- a memory card of the stage "5" has a type of D, an accessible area of the recording area 2, a large capacity exceeding 2 GB, and a total number of states having: This indicates that no format is required at the time of state switching, and that the file system is a memory card that uses FAT32.
- the state determination unit 14 has a state list so that Based on the state obtained from the memory card, the type and state of the inserted memory card can be grasped.
- FIG. 12 illustrates an example in which the state of the memory card 6 of type E is switched from “6” to “8”.
- the user operates the operation unit 12 of the access device 1 and sequentially selects “3. initial setting” and “4. area switching” from the menu list displayed on the display unit 13. Assume that it is selected. By this operation, a menu screen for executing the area switching of the memory card ⁇ (6) is displayed on the display unit 13.
- the process related to “area switching” is a process depending on the state.
- the state-dependent processing unit 16 also acquires information on the current state of the memory card from the state determination unit 14.
- the state determination unit 14 notifies the state-dependent processing unit 16 of information on the state based on the state and the state list acquired from the memory card.
- the state determination unit 14 has acquired the state “6” of the memory card E (6) from the memory card, and refers to the state list of FIG. Etc. Notify the Tate-dependent processing unit 16.
- the state-dependent processing unit 16 recognizes that the type of the currently inserted memory card is “E” and the state is “6” based on the information from the state determination unit 14. Further, since the number of states of the card is 3, the state-dependent processing unit 16 recognizes that this memory card can be switched to three states.
- the state-dependent processing unit 16 obtains information on the remaining two states other than the current state from the state determination unit 14 and displays the three areas that are area switchable areas on the display unit 13. And prompt the user to select the area switching destination (see Fig. 12). Also, when switching from stage '6' to stage '8', formatting is required (see Figure 11). The occurrence of the format is notified via the display unit 13. When the user determines that formatting is possible, and inputs to the operation unit 12 that area switching and execution of formatting are permitted, area switching and formatting processing are executed.
- the type and the state of the memory card of the access device 1 of the present invention are determined, and the number and information of the area switchable areas are notified to the user. It also determines whether or not the format is necessary when switching areas, and displays an appropriate message to the user. As a result, it is possible to provide necessary information and options to the user at the time of area switching, and to realize an area switching process with a high degree of freedom for the user.
- the access device 1 separately inquires the capacity of each area from the memory card, acquires the capacity, and displays it.
- the state list stores only general information related to the state
- information that may be different even in the same state is obtained directly from the memory card, and is stored in the state list.
- it is displayed to the user in combination with the information stored in the table.
- the main processing unit 15 executes still image shooting, records still image data on the memory card, and ends the processing (S1303).
- the main processing unit 15 determines whether the area can be switched (S1304). This determination is made based on information from the state dependent processing unit 16. Specifically, this determination is made by determining whether or not the memory card has two recording areas exclusively used and is a memory card that can be switched between these areas. . For example, referring to FIG. 11, the area can be switched when switching from the stud '4' to the stud '5' on the memory card D or when switching from the stade '6' to the stade '7' on the memory card D. Is determined.
- the area can be switched, the user is notified on the display unit 13 that there is no free area in the current recording area and that the memory card is capable of area switching (S1305). To switch the recording area. When the user selects the area switching, the recording area on the memory card and the state are switched, and still image shooting is performed. If the user does not select the area switching, there is not enough free space for recording a still image, so the still image shooting is stopped and the process is terminated.
- the type and state of the memory card are determined. Prompt and continue shooting still images.
- the user is provided with a means for resolving the shortage of free space such as area switching, thereby improving user convenience by continuing data recording. Is possible.
- the method of prompting the user to switch the area during still image shooting has been described, but the area may be automatically switched. In particular, if the area is switched manually during data recording, data cannot be recorded during the switching. It is more effective to automatically switch the area when continuous recording such as moving image shooting is required.
