    Abstract: A new functionality in a fax communication system including a PC with a virtual data port (DTE) and a fax modem (DCE), having an infrared (IR) connection between them, wherein the DCE is capable of indicating to the local infrared communications, i.e., IrDA IrCOMM, port or interface the type of the software flow control, either local or end-to-end, so that the local and the remote IrCOMM ports can be made to function such that:______________________________________IF an XON/XOFF character is received from the client AND the mode is end-to-end AND the SW flow control is enabled,THEN the XON/XOFF character is handled as flow control and the character is transmitted to the host IrCOMM.______________________________________A new interface primitive at the interface of the IrCOMM in the DCE requests the desired mode and if the desired mode is "local", the XON/XOFF characters are not transmitted to the host system when SW flow control is active. When the mode is "end-to-end", then the XON/XOFF characters are always transmitted to the host system regardless of the SW flow control state. A new control channel parameter inside the local IrCOMM indicates the change of the SW flow control mode to report the change to the host IrCOMM.

    Abstract: A method and system for light beam communication between a camera and a computer is provided by adapting an existing light beam auto-focus system of a conventional automated camera, such as a conventional automated film-based camera or a conventional automated electronic camera, and by adapting a conventional computer to provide a light beam communication linkage with the adapted camera. The light beam auto-focus system of such automated cameras is modified to include a mode selector providing a selection of the conventional light beam auto-focus mode and alternatively for selection of a light beam communication mode. The camera has a microprocessor and an erasable electrically programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). In the light beam communication mode, a light beam emitter driver circuit and a light beam sensor timing circuit and signal processor are provided. A conventional computer, for example, a desktop computer or a laptop computer, is adapted to receive and to transmit optically encoded digital signals whereby a computer-based light beam sensor and light beam emitter have an optical spectrum overlapping with the optical spectrum of the camera-based light beam emitter and light beam sensor. Light beam communication is initiated by suitable commands provided by a camera user to the computer. The camera microprocessor is responsive to such commands, and that response is transmitted by the camera-based light beam emitter back to the computer-based light beam sensor.

    Abstract: In an image reading apparatus used for a copying machine and a facsimile device, an image reading scanner is separated from a main device of the apparatus in order to increase the freedom of the scanning direction of the original and increase the operability of the scanner. The hand scanner is moved by a hand of an operator on the original and reads the image data line by line. The image data representing a dot pattern is transmitted to the main device as an on/off modulated optical signal through a modem. The main device receives the optical signal and demodulates the signal using a modem to reproduce the image data obtained by the hand scanner.
