Abstract:
In accordance with one embodiment, an abnormality notification apparatus comprises a display device, a first drive circuit, at least one processor, a pulse generating circuit and a second drive circuit. The first drive circuit turns on the display device according to a control signal from a display control section. The processor operates according to separate programs. The pulse generating circuit outputs, during a period when a signal indicating an abnormality of any processor is input, a pulse signal corresponding to a blinking pattern for notifying the abnormality of the processor. The second drive circuit blinks the display device in response to the pulse signal output by the pulse generating circuit.

Claim (Index 1):
