Abstract: An endoscope system includes a processor that performs image processing on endoscope image data acquired by an endoscope, which is inserted in a subject and observes an inside of the subject. The processor communicate with a terminal device including a transceiver configured to transmit identification information identifying the terminal device, and a controller configured to: determine whether the processor is a connection destination configured to perform two-way communication, based on the received processor identification information, authenticate whether a user of the terminal device is a predetermined registered user by analyzing data obtained by the terminal device from the user, and allow two-way communication between the processor and the terminal device in response to the processor being determined as the connection designation to perform two-way communication and in response to authenticating the user of the terminal device.

Abstract: An endoscope system includes: an image pickup device configured to output a digital signal; an EEPROM in which predetermined information concerning an endoscope is recorded; a signal control portion capable of selectively converting data of one of the digital signal outputted from the image pickup device and the predetermined information of the EEPROM to serial data and outputting the serial data; an electro-optical conversion portion configured to convert the data outputted from the signal control portion to an optical signal and output the optical signal; a universal cable; and a data switching portion switched to transfer the predetermined information from the EEPROM by the signal control portion and then transfer the digital signal by the signal control portion. The signal control portion decides through which of a metal transmitting member and an optical transmitting member the predetermined information is transmitted, based on a data amount of the predetermined information.
