Abstract
A mobile terminal that communicates with an image processing apparatus including a scanning function includes a display unit that displays a screen, a first instruction unit that, when the display unit displays a specific screen corresponding to the scanning function, instructs the image processing apparatus to activate a specific application corresponding to the scanning function, and a second instruction unit that, when the mobile terminal receives an instruction to perform the scanning function, instructs the image processing apparatus to perform the scanning function.
Claims7
A mobile terminal comprising:
- a memory device that stores programs;
- and
- a processor that executes the programs to:
- determine, in a case of receiving a beacon signal for BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) by the mobile terminal from an image processing apparatus, whether radio field intensity of the beacon signal is not less than a threshold value;
- upon determination that the radio field intensity is not less than the threshold value, automatically transmit user information for login of the image processing apparatus to the image processing apparatus via GATT (Generic Attribute Profile) communication by BLE;
- and
- transmit an execution instruction for scan processing to the image processing apparatus via wireless LAN communication in response to a scan instruction received by the mobile terminal from a user after the login of the image processing apparatus.
A control method for a mobile terminal, the control method comprising:
- determining, in a case of receiving a beacon signal for BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) by the mobile terminal from an image processing apparatus, whether radio field intensity of the beacon signal is not less than a threshold value;
- upon determining that the radio field intensity is not less than the threshold value, automatically transmitting user information for login of the image processing apparatus to the image processing apparatus via GATT (Generic Attribute Profile) communication by BLE;
- and
- transmitting an execution instruction for scan processing to the image processing apparatus via wireless LAN communication in response to a scan instruction received by the mobile terminal from a user after the login of the image processing apparatus.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer executable instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a control method for a mobile terminal, the control method comprising:
- determining, in a case of receiving a beacon signal for BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) by the mobile terminal from an image processing apparatus, whether radio field intensity of the beacon signal is not less than a threshold value;
- upon determining that the radio field intensity is not less than the threshold value, automatically transmitting user information for login of the image processing apparatus to the image processing apparatus via GATT (Generic Attribute Profile) communication by BLE;
- and
- transmitting an execution instruction for scan processing to the image processing apparatus via wireless LAN communication in response to a scan instruction received by the mobile terminal from a user after the login of the image processing apparatus.
