Abstract: When a terminal specifies an address and a data length to read out data from a file in an IC card, if a response from the IC card has a TLV structure and a field length of L in the TLV structure is variable, there is a possibility that the terminal cannot obtain data of the requested length, and the interoperability might be deteriorated. 
     With respect to an Le field that specified a maximum length of response data from the IC card, a conversion rule from the data length requested by the terminal into an Le value is shared between the terminal and the IC card. Alternatively, aside from the Le field, the data length requested by the terminal is specified within a data field. Thereby, it is possible to definitely transfer the data length requested by the terminal to the IC card in conformity with a message structure of ISO/IEC7816.

Thereby, the air feed amount, water feed amount and suction amount can be understood. In addition, by selectively operating the air feed switch (65), water feed switch (66), sub-water feed switch (67) and suction switch (68), a operation control can be performed on the separate operation section (62) side, in place of the air feed, water feed and suction operations of the operation section (11). Thus, the air feed, water feed and suction operations with high precision can simply and easily be realized, and the handling operability can be improved.
