Communication Device

A communication device configured to communicate target data that is a target of communication with an external device according to an NFC (an abbreviation of Near Field Communication) scheme, the NFC scheme being a scheme complying with an NFC standard, the communication device comprising:

• a first establishing module configured to communicate a first establishing command with the external device so as to establish a first communication link complying with the NFC scheme between the communication device and the external device;
• a first communicating module configured to communicate first target data with the external device by using the first communication link;
• a disconnecting module configured to disconnect the first communication link after communicating the first target data with the external device;
• a second establishing module configured to communicate a second establishing command with the external device after disconnecting the first communication link, so as to establish a second communication link between the communication device and the external device;
• and
• a second communicating module configured to communicate second target data with the external device by using the second communication link, the second target data being data generated by processing the first target data.

A communication device configured to communicate target data that is a target of communication with an external device according to an NFC (an abbreviation of Near Field Communication) scheme, the NFC scheme being a scheme complying with an NFC standard, the communication device comprising:

• an NFC interface configured to execute NFC scheme communication;
• a processor;
• and
• a memory configured to store a computer program,
• wherein, according to the computer program, the processor is configured to execute:
• a determining step that determines whether or not sending information indicating that data sending is to be executed is stored in the memory in a case where an establishing command, which is a command for establishing a communication link between the communication device and the external device, is communicated with the external device via the NFC interface,
• a receiving step that receives first target data from the external device via the NFC interface in a case where it is determined in the determining step that the sending information is not stored in the memory,
• a processing step that generates the second target data by processing the first target data in a case where the first target data is received from the external device,
• a memory controlling step that stores the sending information in the memory in the case where the first target data is received from the external device,
• a disconnecting step that disconnects the communication link after receiving the first target data from the external device, and
• a sending step that sends second target data to the external device via the NFC interface in a case where it is determined in the determining step that the sending information is stored in the memory.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program for a communication device configured to communicate target data that is a target of communication with an external device according to an NFC (an abbreviation of Near Field Communication) scheme complying with an NFC standard, the computer program including instructions for ordering a processor mounted on the communication device to execute:

• a determining step that determines whether or not sending information indicating that data sending is to be executed is stored in the memory in a case where an establishing command, which is a command for establishing a communication link between the communication device and the external device, is communicated with the external device via the NFC interface,
• a receiving step that receives first target data from the external device via the NFC interface in a case where it is determined in the determining step that the sending information is not stored in the memory,
• a processing step that generates the second target data by processing the first target data in a case where the first target data is received from the external device,
• a memory controlling step that stores the transmission information in the memory the case where the first target data is received from the external device,
• a disconnecting step that disconnects the communication link after receiving the first target data from the external device, and
• a sending step that sends second target data to the external device via the NFC interface in a ease where it is determined in the determining step that the sending information is stored in the memory.
