Abstract

A recording apparatus includes a detector detecting a voltage of a battery. A first sensing processor senses a recording operation. A recorder executes a recording process according to the recording operation. A second sensing processor senses a predetermined operation other than the recording operation. A processor executes a predetermined process according to the predetermined operation. A first controller executes the predetermined process when the predetermined operation is sensed during a time a power fed from the power feeding device is being received. A second controller prohibits the recording process if the voltage of the battery is smaller than a predetermined threshold value when the recording operation is sensed during a time the power fed from the power feeding device is being received, and executes the recording process if the voltage of the battery is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold value when the recording operation is sensed.

Claims (25)

1 . A recording apparatus which is provided with a power receiving portion for receiving a power fed from a power feeding device and which operates based on the power supplied from a battery or the power feeding device, said apparatus comprising:

a detector which detects a voltage of the battery,

a first sensing processor which senses a recording operation;

a recorder which executes a recording process according to the recording operation;

a second sensing processor which senses a predetermined operation other than the recording operation;

a processor which executes a predetermined process according to the predetermined operation;

a first controller which executes the predetermined process when the predetermined operation is sensed by said second sensing processor during a time that a power fed from the power feeding device is being received; and

a second controller which prohibits the recording process if the voltage of the battery is smaller than a predetermined threshold value when the recording operation is sensed by said first detector during a time that the power fed from the power feeding device is being received, and executes the recording process if the voltage of the battery is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold value when the recording operation is sensed by said first sensing processor.

2 . A recording apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein said second controller includes a notifier which notifies to outside, if the voltage of the battery is smaller than a predetermined threshold value when the recording operation is sensed by said first sensing processor during reception of the power fed from the power feeding device.

3 . A photographing apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising a stopper which stops the recording process if the voltage, of the battery, detected by said detector during execution of the recording process is smaller than a predetermined threshold value.

4 . A recording apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the recording process includes a process for recording acquisition data, as a file, on a recorder, and for recording management information of the file.

5 . A recording apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the acquisition data is photograph data acquired by a photographing processor.

6 . A recording apparatus which is provided with a power receiving portion for receiving a power fed from a power feeding device and which operates based on the power supplied from a battery or the power feeding device, said apparatus comprising:

a first voltage detector which detects a fed voltage when an apparatus main body is fed with a power from a power feeding device;

a second voltage detector which detects a voltage of the battery,

a controller which controls said first voltage detector and said second voltage detector, wherein

said controller controls so that detection of the voltage fed by said first voltage detector and detection of the voltage of the battery in said second voltage detector are executed when the apparatus main body is receiving the power fed from the power feeding device.

7 . A recording apparatus which is provided with a power receiving portion for receiving a power fed from a power feeding device and which operates based on the power supplied from a battery or the power feeding device, said apparatus causing a processor of a recording device to execute:

a detecting step of detecting a voltage of the battery;

a first sensing step of sensing a recording operation;

a recording step of executing a recording process according to the recording operation;

a second sensing step of sensing a predetermined operation other than the recording operation;

a step of executing a predetermined process according to the predetermined operation;

a first controlling step of executing the predetermined process when the predetermined operation is sensed by said second sensing step during a time that a power fed from the power feeding device is being received; and

a second controlling step of prohibiting the recording process if the voltage of the battery is smaller than a predetermined threshold value when the recording operation is sensed by said first detecting step during a time that the power fed from the power feeding device is being received, and executing the recording process if the voltage of the battery is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold value when the recording operation is sensed by said first sensing step.
