DATA COLLECTING DEVICE

PURPOSE:To execute a high speed processing for a necessary data collection by storing the data concerned in the store address concerned of a second storage means, when a data collection is required, as a result of decision by a deciding means. CONSTITUTION:Decision data and a store address corresponding to a coincident code are read out of a kind code which is stored in a first storage means 4 by a code for showing a kind of inputted data. Subsequently, whether a collection is required or not is decided from the decision data by a deciding means 12. As a result of decision, when a data collection is required, data corresponding to the kind code concerned is stored in the corresponding store address of a second storage means 8. In such a way, since whether the collection is required or not is decided quickly, the collection time becomes a high speed, and it is possible to cope with a large quantity of data.
