Abstract
To add an unpackaged interface without adding a new connector to an information processing device. An information processing device includes: a first control device connected, when first equipment is attached, to the equipment via a terminal train containing a first detection terminal; a second control device; and a connection control device detecting, when the second equipment is attached, a detection signal of the second equipment via the first detection terminal and connecting the second equipment to the second control device based on the detection signal.
Claims12
An information processing device, comprising:
- a first control device to be connected, when first equipment is attached, to the first equipment via a terminal train containing a first detection terminal;
- a second control device;
- and
- a connection control device to detect, when second equipment is attached, a detection signal of the second equipment via the first detection terminal and to connect the second equipment to the second control device on the basis of the detection signal.
An equipment connection method, comprising:
- detecting a detection signal of second equipment attached to the computer via a first detection terminal included in a terminal train used for connecting first equipment to a first control device;
- and
- connecting second equipment to a second control device on the basis of the detection signal.
A storage medium storing a program of instructions, upon executing the instructions, the program causing a computer to perform:
- detecting a detection signal of second equipment attached to the computer via a first detection terminal included in a terminal train used for connecting first equipment to a first control device;
- and
- connecting the second equipment to a second control device on the basis of the detection signal.
