Power control during releasing operation
An information processing device includes a plate on which a hook is provided and configured to move between a first position where a connection with another information processing device by the hook is done and a second position where the connection by the hook is released; and a processor configured to energize the another information processing device via a connection terminal when the connection is maintained by the hook, receive information indicating that a releasing operation for releasing the connection is started before the connection is released when a position of the plate is moved, and cut off the energization to the another information processing device via the connection terminal according to the reception.
1. An information processing device, comprising:
a plate on which a hook is provided and configured to move between a first position where a connection with another information processing device by the hook is done and a second position where the connection by the hook is released; and
a processor configured to:
energize the another information processing device via a connection terminal when the connection is maintained by the hook,
receive information indicating that a releasing operation for releasing the connection is started before the connection is released when a position of the plate is moved, and
cut off the energization to the another information processing device via the connection terminal according to the reception,
wherein the processor includes:
a first processor configured to cut off the energization based on a result of processing by software that determines a state of the connection, and
a second processor configured to cut off the energization without the processing by the software.
2. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
a sensor configured to detect that the releasing operation is started before the connection is released when the position of the plate is moved.
3. The information processing device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the sensor is a photo interrupter configured to include a light emitting diode and a light receiving diode, and
the photo interrupter detects that the releasing operation is started based on a state in which the light receiving diode detects that a light from the light emitting diode is shielded due to a movement of the position of the plate.
4. The information processing device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the sensor is a magnetic sensor configured to detect a magnetic field, and
the magnetic sensor determines that releasing operation is started when a magnitude of the detected magnetic field is greater than a predetermined value.
5. The information processing device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the sensor is a switch, and
the switch detects that the releasing operation is started by detecting that the switch is turned ON from OFF due to a movement of the position of the plate.
6. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the information processing device is a cradle and the another information processing device is a tablet.
7. A control method executed by a processor included in an information processing device, the information processing device including a plate on which a hook is provided and configured to move between a first position where a connection with another information processing device by the hook is done and a second position where the connection by the hook is released, the control method comprising:
energizing the another information processing device via a connection terminal when the connection is maintained by the hook,
receiving information indicating that a releasing operation for releasing the connection is started before the connection is released when a position of the plate is moved, and
cutting off the energization to the another information processing device via the connection terminal according to the reception,
wherein the processor includes:
a first processor configured to cut off the energization based on a result of processing by software that determines a state of the connection, and
a second processor configured to cut off the energization without the processing by the software.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes a processor included in an information processing device to execute a process, the information processing device including a plate on which a hook is provided and configured to move between a first position where a connection with another information processing device by the hook is done and a second position where the connection by the hook is released, the process comprising:
energizing the another information processing device via a connection terminal when the connection is maintained by the hook,
receiving information indicating that a releasing operation for releasing the connection is started before the connection is released when a position of the plate is moved, and
cutting off the energization to the another information processing device via the connection terminal according to the reception,
wherein the processor includes:
a first processor configured to cut off the energization based on a result of processing by software that determines a state of the connection, and
a second processor configured to cut off the energization without the processing by the software.
