Abstract
A communication apparatus transmits, to another apparatus via a first wireless communication, remote control information which is related to remote control of the communication apparatus, and transmits, when information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication corresponds to the remote control information, information related to a screen of a remote control permitted state to the other apparatus via second wireless communication. When the information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication does not correspond to the remote control information, information related to a login screen for the remote control is transmitted.
Claims21
A communication apparatus comprising:
- a first wireless communication unit configured to perform first wireless communication;
- a second wireless communication unit configured to perform second wireless communication using a communication scheme different from the first wireless communication;
- a transmission unit configured to transmit via the first wireless communication, remote control information to be used by another apparatus for displaying a state of the communication apparatus;
- and
- a control unit configured to perform control to transmit, based on an event that information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication corresponds to the remote control information transmitted via the first wireless communication, information related to a screen including the state of the communication apparatus to the other apparatus via the second wireless communication,
- wherein the control unit performs control to transmit, based on an event that the information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication does not correspond to the remote control information transmitted via the first wireless communication, information related to a login screen for the remote control, and
- wherein the first wireless communication unit, the second wireless communication unit, the transmission unit, and the control unit are implemented by at least one processor.
A control method of a communication apparatus that can perform first wireless communication and second wireless communication using a communication scheme different from the first wireless communication, the method comprising:
- transmitting, via the first wireless communication, remote control information to be used by another apparatus for displaying a state of the communication apparatus;
- transmitting, based on an event that information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication corresponds to the remote control information transmitted via the first wireless communication, information related to a screen including the state of the communication apparatus to the other apparatus via the second wireless communication;
- and
- transmitting, based on an event that the information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication does not correspond to the remote control information transmitted via the first wireless communication, information related to a login screen for the remote control.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a computer program for causing a computer, included in a communication apparatus that can perform first wireless communication and second wireless communication using a communication scheme different from the first wireless communication, to perform control for
- transmitting, via the first wireless communication, remote control information to be used by another apparatus for displaying a state of the communication apparatus;
- transmitting, based on an event that information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication corresponds to the remote control information transmitted via the first wireless communication, information related to a screen including the state of the communication apparatus to the other apparatus via the second wireless communication;
- and
- transmitting, based on an event that the information which is received from the other apparatus via the second wireless communication does not correspond to the remote control information transmitted via the first wireless communication, information related to a login screen for the remote control.
