Claims
- 1. A heating appliance comprising a heating chamber for accepting a heating load, a heat source coupled to said heating chamber, a control section for controlling the feeding of energy to said heat source, a MNOS memory, a memory writing means for instructing the writing of heating data including heating time, heat output and/or heating temperature into said MNOS memory through an operation panel by an operator, and a memory reading means for instructing the readout of the heating data from said MNOS memory, the control section reads out the heating data from MNOS memory and rewrites the same data for confirming the stored data when the control section detects a turn on of a power source; wherein said MNOS memory operates as a non-volatile memory and wherein addressed data to be refreshed is stored at a certain address in said MNOS memory and only the heating data stored at the address corresponding to said certain address data to be refreshed is rewritten every time that a power source is turned on or when a predetermined time has passed, while the address data to be refreshed is up-dated.
- 2. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 1, wherein said appliance further comprises a timer means for causing the writing and reading of the MNOS memory to be inhibited during a time that the timer means is counting a predetermined delay time after the power source is turned on.
- 3. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a memory protecting means for protecting data stored in said memory, wherein said control section inhibits at least the writing of data into said MNOS memory by said memory protecting means during a time that said heat source is energized.
- 4. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 1, wherein when the data from said MNOS memory is readout, the control section checks to see if the heating data so read out is logically possible and interrupts the execution of heating based on said data if the data is logically impossible.
- 5. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 1, wherein said control section inhibits acceptance of operation instructions from input means on the operation panel while the writing or reading of data into or out of said MNOS memory is being executed.
- 6. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 1, wherein after writing into the MNOS memory, said control section reads out and compares the stored data and the data in a RAM, and if there is a discrepancy between them, said control section repeats the writing, reading and comparing up to a predetermined number of times or for up to a predetermined time until an agreement is obtained.
- 7. A heating appliance comprising a heating chamber for accepting a heating load, a heat source coupled to said heating chamber, a control section for controlling the feeding of energy to said heat source, a MNOS memory, a memory writing means for instructing the writing of heating data including heating time, heat output and/or heating temperature into said MNOS memory through an operation panel by an operator, and a memory reading means for instructing the readout of the heating data from said MNOS memory, the control section reads out the heating data from MNOS memory and rewrites the same data for confirming the stored data; wherein said MNOS memory operates as a non-volatile memory and wherein addresssed data to be refreshed is stored at a certain address in said MNOS memory and only the heating data stored at the address corresponding to said certain address data to be refreshed is rewritten every time that a power source is turned on or when a predetermined time has passed, while the address data to be refreshed is up-dated.
- 8. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 7, wherein said appliance further comprises a timer means for causing the writing and reading of the MNOS memory to be inhibited during a time that the timer means is counting a predetermined delay time after the power source is turned on.
- 9. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 7, further comprising a memory protecting means for protecting data stored in said memory, wherein said control section inhibits at least the writing of data into said MNOS memory by said memory protecting means during a time that said heat source is energized.
- 10. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 7, wherein when the data from said MNOS memory is readout, the control section checks to see if the heating data so read out is logically possible and interrupts the execution of heating based on said data if the data is logically impossible.
- 11. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 7, wherein said control section inhibits acceptance of operation instructions from input means on the operation panel while the writing or reading of data into or out of said MNOS memory is being executed.
- 12. A heating appliance as claimed in claim 7, wherein after writing into the MNOS memory, said control section reads out and compares the stored data and the data in a RAM, and if there is a discrepancy between them, said control section repeats the writing, reading and comparing up to a predetermined number of times or for up to a predetermined time until an agreement is obtained.
