Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to, when connected devices whose number is greater than a predetermined number are connected to the information processing apparatus, the predetermined number indicating the maximum number of devices simultaneously supplied with power, switch a power supply destination between the connected devices so as to obtain a state in which the number of connected devices simultaneously supplied with power is equal to or less than the predetermined number.
Claims19
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- obtain a number of connected devices which are connected to the information processing apparatus;
- when the number of connected devices is greater than a predetermined number, the predetermined number indicating a maximum number of devices simultaneously supplied with power, switch a power supply destination between the connected devices so as to obtain a state in which the number of connected devices simultaneously supplied with power is equal to or less than the predetermined number and
- even when establishing a connection between a new connected device and the information processing apparatus causes the number of connected devices to exceed the predetermined number, supply power at least to a single authentication device for user authentication.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for information processing, the process comprising:
- obtaining a number of connected devices which are connected to the information processing apparatus;
- when the number of connected devices is greater than a predetermined number, the predetermined number indicating a maximum number of devices simultaneously supplied with power, switching a power supply destination between the connected devices so as to obtain a state in which the number of connected devices simultaneously supplied with power is equal to or less than the predetermined number;
- and
- even when establishing a connection between a new connected device and the information processing apparatus causes the number of connected devices to exceed the predetermined number, supplying power at least to a single authentication device for user authentication.
