Abstract
Systems involve implementations such as an electronic-controller-implemented method for use with an accessory assembly couplable with a device assembly and a payment card reader assembly, the method including determining activation status of the accessory assembly; and controlling charging status of the device assembly based at least in part on the activation status of the accessory assembly. Other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text forming a part of the present disclosure.
Claims20
An electronic-controller-implemented method for use with an accessory assembly electrical-energy-communication-based couplable and structurally couplable with a portable electronic device and with a payment card reader assembly, the portable electronic device selected from a portable electronic tablet device implementation or a portable electronic phone device implementation, the method comprising:
- determining activation status of the accessory assembly;
- and
- when the portable electronic device is electrical-energy-communication based coupled and structurally coupled with the accessory assembly, controlling at least a portion of electrical-energy-based charging of the portable electronic device based at least in part on the activation status of the accessory assembly.
An electronic-controller-implemented method for use with an accessory assembly electrical-energy-communication-based couplable and structurally couplable with a portable electronic device and a payment card reader assembly, the portable electronic device selected from a portable electronic tablet device implementation and a portable electronic phone device implementation, the method comprising:
- determining activation status of the accessory assembly;
- and
- when the portable electronic device is electrical-energy-communication-based coupled and structurally coupled with the accessory assembly, controlling at least a portion of electrical-communication status of the portable electronic device based at least in part on the activation status of the accessory assembly.
An electronic-controller-implemented method for use with an accessory assembly electrical-energy-communication-based couplable with and structurally couplable with a portable electronic device and a payment card reader assembly, the portable electronic device selected from a portable electronic tablet device implementation and a portable electronic phone device implementation, the method comprising:
- determining electrical-energy-communication-based coupling status of the accessory assembly with the portable electronic device;
- and
- controlling at least a portion of electrical-communication-based connectivity of the portable electronic device based at least in part on the electrical-energy-communication-based coupling status of the accessory assembly with the portable electronic device.
