Multi-channel device connection

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of a mount, the one or more programs including instructions for:

• detecting, at a first time, that a computer system is coupled to the mount;
• in response to detecting, at the first time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount, causing the computer system to initiate a secure communication between the computer system and the mount, wherein such causing includes sending a message via a first type of communication channel to the computer system, and wherein the message includes an identifier of the mount;
• after causing the computer system to initiate the secure communication between the computer system and the mount, receiving, via a second type of communication channel different from the first type of communication channel, a request to establish the secure communication, wherein the request to establish the secure connection includes a request to pair the mount with the computer system;
• after receiving the request to establish the secure communication, detecting, at a second time different from the first time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount;
• in response to detecting, at the second time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount, causing the computer system to reestablish the secure communication between the computer system and the mount by sending the identifier of the mount via the first type of communication channel from the mount to the computer system;
• and
• after the causing the computer system to reestablish the secure communication between the computer system and the mount, receiving, via the second type of communication channel, a request to reestablish the secure communication using pairing information established before detecting, at the second time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount.

A mount, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• detecting, at a first time, that a computer system is coupled to the mount;
• in response to detecting, at the first time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount, causing the computer system to initiate a secure communication between the computer system and the mount, wherein such causing includes sending a message via a first type of communication channel to the computer system, and wherein the message includes an identifier of the mount;
• after causing the computer system to initiate the secure communication between the computer system and the mount, receiving, via a second type of communication channel different from the first type of communication channel, a request to establish the secure communication, wherein the request to establish the secure connection includes a request to pair the mount with the computer system;
• after receiving the request to establish the secure communication, detecting, at a second time different from the first time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount;
• in response to detecting, at the second time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount, causing the computer system to reestablish the secure communication between the computer system and the mount by sending the identifier of the mount via the first type of communication channel from the mount to the computer system;
• and
• after the causing the computer system to reestablish the secure communication between the computer system and the mount, receiving, via the second type of communication channel, a request to reestablish the secure communication using pairing information established before detecting, at the second time, that the computer system is coupled to the mount.
