PURPOSE: To simplify the operation by giving the digital data remote control function by which selection of the output position of digital data and output request are performed only with touch to a picture.
CONSTITUTION: Coordinates and the strength of touch detected by a touch panel 2 which detects coordinates of the touch position and the strength of touch at the time of touch to the display picture on a CRT display part 1 and the key code of a function key inputted from a keyboard 3 where plural function keys to which prescribed processing functions are assigned are arranged are sent to a main control part 5. The main control part 5 discriminates selection of the output position of digital data or the output request based on the discrimination result of an input control part 4 which discriminates the strength of touch to the output position displayed on the picture for digital data output in two stages. Digital data is outputted to an external apparatus 6 based on this discrimination result.
