Abstract
A problem is solved by providing a communication apparatus including a displaying unit that displays, on a display unit, a predetermined screen for executing a second communication setting that allows the communication apparatus to communicate with a terminal apparatus by using a second communication method, which is different from a first communication method, in a case where a cancel instruction is received while the communication apparatus is operating in a predetermined condition.
Claims19
A communication apparatus comprising:
- at least one storage medium;
- and
- at least one processor configured to cause the communication apparatus to:
- operate in a predetermined condition in which the communication apparatus is able to receive, from a terminal apparatus, setting information related to a first communication setting for communicating with the terminal apparatus using a first communication method;
- receive the setting information from the terminal apparatus while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition;
- execute the first communication setting in a case where the setting information is received from the terminal apparatus;
- receive, by a user operation to the communication apparatus before the setting information is received from the terminal apparatus while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition, a cancel instruction to cancel an execution of the first communication setting;
- display, on a display unit of the communication apparatus while the predetermined condition is maintained, a predetermined screen to execute a second communication setting that allows the communication apparatus to communicate with the terminal apparatus using a second communication method, which is different from the first communication method, based on that the cancel instruction is received while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition;
- receive, by the user operation to the communication apparatus on the display unit of which the predetermined screen is displayed, an execution instruction to execute the second communication setting;
- execute the second communication setting based on that the execution instruction to execute the second communication setting is received;
- and
- stop an operation in the predetermined condition based on that the execution instruction to execute the second communication setting is received;
- wherein, by execution of the second communication setting, the communication apparatus becomes able to communicate with the terminal apparatus using the second communication method.

A control method of a communication apparatus, comprising:
- causing the communication apparatus to operate in a predetermined condition in which the communication apparatus is able to receive, from a terminal apparatus, setting information related to a first communication setting for communicating with the terminal apparatus using a first communication method;
- receiving the setting information from the terminal apparatus while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition;
- executing the first communication setting in a case where the setting information is received by the communication apparatus from the terminal apparatus;
- receiving, by a user operation to the communication apparatus before the setting information is received from the terminal apparatus while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition, a cancel instruction to cancel an execution of the first communication setting;
- displaying, on a display unit of the communication apparatus while the predetermined condition is maintained, a predetermined screen to execute a second communication setting that allows the communication apparatus to communicate with the terminal apparatus using a second communication method, which is different from the first communication method, based on receiving the cancel instruction while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition;
- receiving, by the user operation to the communication apparatus on the display unit which displays the predetermined screen, an execution instruction to execute the second communication setting;
- executing the second communication setting based on receiving the execution instruction to execute the second communication setting, wherein, by executing the second communication setting, the communication apparatus becomes able to communicate with the terminal apparatus using the second communication method;
- and
- stopping an operation in the predetermined condition based on receiving the execution instruction to execute the second communication setting.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program that causes a computer in a communication apparatus to execute:
- causing the communication apparatus to operate in a predetermined condition in which the communication apparatus is able to receive, from a terminal apparatus, setting information related to a first communication setting for communicating with the terminal apparatus using a first communication method;
- receiving the setting information from the terminal apparatus while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition;
- executing the first communication setting in a case where the setting information is received by the communication apparatus from the terminal apparatus;
- receiving, by a user operation to the communication apparatus before the setting information is received from the terminal apparatus while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition, a cancel instruction to cancel an execution of the first communication setting;
- displaying, on a display unit of the communication apparatus while the predetermined condition is maintained, a predetermined screen to execute a second communication setting that allows the communication apparatus to communicate with the terminal apparatus using a second communication method, which is different from the first communication method, based on receiving the cancel instruction while the communication apparatus is operating in the predetermined condition;
- receiving, by the user operation to the communication apparatus on the display unit which displays the predetermined screen, an execution instruction to execute the second communication setting;
- executing the second communication setting based on receiving the execution instruction to execute the second communication setting, wherein, by executing the second communication setting, the communication apparatus becomes able to communicate with the terminal apparatus using the second communication method;
- and
- stopping an operation in the predetermined condition based on receiving the execution instruction to execute the second communication setting.
