Memory reset control apparatus, method for controlling the control apparatus, and storage medium

A control method of a control apparatus having a first controller, a second controller, and a memory which stores at least information indicating a condition to start a boot processing of the control apparatus, the method comprising:

• referring, by the first controller, to the information stored in the memory in response to receiving power;
• performing, by the first controller, the boot processing of the control apparatus, wherein performing the boot processing includes:
• starting, in a case where the information stored in the memory is first information, the boot processing without waiting for an input of a certain signal, and,
• in a case where the information stored in the memory is second information, waiting for the input of the certain signal and starting the boot processing in response to the input of the certain signal;
• and
• initializing, by the second controller, the information stored in the memory on a basis of lapse of a predetermined time without performing the boot processing after supplying power to the first controller.

A control apparatus comprising:

• a memory which stores information;
• a coin battery which supplies power to the memory;
• a first controller which performs a boot processing of the control apparatus, wherein the first controller refers to the information stored in the memory in response to receiving power, and then performs a boot processing of the control apparatus;
• and
• a second controller which initializes the information stored in the memory on a basis of lapse of a predetermined time without performing the boot processing of the control apparatus after supplying power to the first controller.
