Claims
- 1. An image reproduction system, comprising:
- an image reproducing apparatus;
- a peripheral apparatus additionally attached to said reproducing apparatus;
- first one chip computer means provided with a data memory, a processor and a memory storing a program for operation control of said peripheral apparatus;
- second one chip computer means having a data memory, a processor and a memory storing a program for operation control of said image reproducing apparatus, for communicating data with said first one chip computer means;
- first reset means for resetting said first one chip computer means for a predetermined period of time in response to the power source being turned on, wherein said first reset means also resets said first one chip computer means during the period of time of initialization of said second one chip computer means in response to a control signal from said second one chip computer means which indicates the initialization of said second one chip computer means and said first reset means cancels the reset of said first one chip computer means in response to a control signal which indicates the completion of initialization of said second one chip computer means,
- wherein said second one chip computer means clears its memory during the initialization.
- 2. An image reproduction system according to claim 1, further comprising second reset means for resetting said second one chip computer means, said first one chip computer means being kept reset on the basis of the control signal from said second one chip computer means until initialization of said second one chip computer means is completed.
- 3. An image reproduction system, comprising:
- an image reproducing apparatus;
- a peripheral apparatus additionally attached to said reproducing apparatus;
- first one chip computer means provided with a data memory, a processor and a memory storing a program for operation control of said peripheral apparatus;
- second one chip computer means having a data memory, a processor and a memory storing a program for operation control of said image reproducing apparatus, for communicating data with said first one chip computer means; and
- means for allowing the start of the operation control program of both said first and second one chip computer means by sending a predetermined signal to both said first and second one chip computer means after initialization of both said first and second one chip computer means;
- wherein said first one chip computer means has first end signal producing means for producing a first end signal when initialization of said first one chip computer means is completed, and said second one chip computer means starts the operation control program on the basis of said first end signal.
- 4. An image reproduction system, comprising:
- an image reproducing apparatus;
- a peripheral apparatus additionally attached to said reproducing apparatus;
- first one chip computer means provided with a data memory, a processor and a memory storing a program for operation control of said peripheral apparatus;
- second one chip computer means having a data memory, a processor and a memory storing a program for operation control of said image reproducing apparatus, for communicating data with said first one chip computer means; and
- means for allowing the start of the operation control program of both said first and second one chip computer means by sending a predetermined signal to both said first and second one chip computer means after initialization of both said first and second one chip computer means;
- wherein said first one chip computer means has first end signal producing means for producing a first end signal when initialization of said first one chip computer means is completed; and
- wherein said second one chip computer means has second end signal producing means for producing a second end signal when initialization of said second one chip computer means is completed, and said first and second one chip computer means start the operation control programs on the basis of both said first and second end signals.
- 5. A system according to claim 1, wherein said first reset means is capable of retaining a reset state of said first one chip computer means on the basis of said control signal even when said predetermined time period elapses.
- 6. A system according to claim 1, wherein said peripheral apparatus is a sorter.
- 7. A system according to claim 5, wherein said peripheral apparatus is a sorter.
- 8. A system according to claim 6, wherein said peripheral apparatus is a sorter.
