Abstract
Abstract A terminal apparatus having a data processing circuit wherein a reset command, which is sent from another station through the same transmission line and according to the same procedure as normal data sent from the station, is detected, and then the data processing circuit is reset in accordance with the reset command. Further, a data renewing command, which is also sent from another station through the same transmission line and according to the same procedure as normal data sent from the station, is detected, and then a content of a data storage in the terminal apparatus is renewed in accordance with the data renewal command.

Independent Claim
81 words
A terminal apparatus, comprising: receiving means for receiving data which is inputted thereto; data processing means for processing data; detecting means for detecting predetermined information, which is included in said data, where the information requests that said data processing means be reset; data transferring means for transferring said data received by said receiving means to said data processing means when said predetermined information is not detected; and reset means for resetting said data processing means when said predetermined information is detected.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
81 words
A terminal apparatus, comprising: receiving means for receiving data which is inputted thereto; data processing means for processing data; detecting means for detecting predetermined information, which is included in said data, where the information requests that said data processing means be reset; data transferring means for transferring said data received by said receiving means to said data processing means when said predetermined information is not detected; and reset means for resetting said data processing means when said predetermined information is detected.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
135 words
A terminal apparatus, comprising: data storage means for storing data; data processing means for processing data using data stored in said data storage means; receiving means for receiving data which is inputted thereto; first detecting means for detecting a reset command in said data in said receiving means; reset means for resetting said data processing means when said reset command is detected; second detecting means for detecting a command requesting renewal of data stored in said data storage means, in said data in said receiving means; data renewing means for renewing data stored in said data storage means when said renewal command is detected; and data transforming means for transferring data included in said data in said receiving means to said data processing means when neither said reset command nor said renewal command is detected.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
135 words
A terminal apparatus, comprising: data storage means for storing data; data processing means for processing data using data stored in said data storage means; receiving means for receiving data which is inputted thereto; first detecting means for detecting a reset command in said data in said receiving means; reset means for resetting said data processing means when said reset command is detected; second detecting means for detecting a command requesting renewal of data stored in said data storage means, in said data in said receiving means; data renewing means for renewing data stored in said data storage means when said renewal command is detected; and data transforming means for transferring data included in said data in said receiving means to said data processing means when neither said reset command nor said renewal command is detected.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
