Abstract
A control device includes a connecting device for connecting an external memory medium; and a non-volatile memory device having at least one memory region in which data can be electrically rewritten. The memory device includes a first memory region for storing control program data; a second memory region for storing connection judgment program data; and a third memory region for storing writing program data. The connection judgment program is executed to determine whether the external memory medium is connected. The writing program is executed to rewrite the control program data stored in the first memory region with external memory medium data stored in the external memory medium.
