Abstract
In a case where a remaining amount of a battery is not greater than or equal to a predetermined amount, a control unit performs control such that a power source for a functional circuit is not switched from the battery to a first power supply apparatus even in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to a first connector in a situation where a second power supply apparatus is not connected to a second connector. The control unit performs control such that the power source is switched from the battery to the first power supply apparatus or the second power supply apparatus in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector and the second power supply apparatus is connected to the second connector.
Claims14
An electronic device comprising:
- a first connector;
- a second connector;
- and
- at least one processor and/or at least one circuit which functions as:
- a selection unit configured to select a battery as a power source that supplies power to a functional circuit of the electronic device;
- and
- a control unit configured to, in a case where a first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector in a situation where a second power supply apparatus is not connected to the second connector, control the selection unit to switch the power source from the battery to the first power supply apparatus,
- wherein in a case where a remaining amount of the battery is not greater than or equal to a predetermined amount,
- the control unit performs control such that the power source is not switched from the battery to the first power supply apparatus by the selection unit even in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector in a situation where the second power supply apparatus is not connected to the second connector, and
- the control unit performs control such that the power source is switched from the battery to the first power supply apparatus or the second power supply apparatus in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector and furthermore the second power supply apparatus is connected to the second connector.
A control method executed by an electronic device,
- the control method comprising:
- selecting a battery as a power source that supplies power to a functional circuit of the electronic device;
- and
- in a case where a first power supply apparatus is connected to a first connector of the electronic device in a situation where a second power supply apparatus is not connected to a second connector of the electronic device, controlling to switch the power source from the battery to the first power supply apparatus,
- wherein in a case where a remaining amount of the battery is not greater than or equal to a predetermined amount,
- the control method performs control such that the power source is not switched from the battery to the first power supply apparatus even in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector in a situation where the second power supply apparatus is not connected to the second connector, and
- the control method performs control such that the power source is switched from the battery to the first power supply apparatus or the second power supply apparatus in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector and furthermore the second power supply apparatus is connected to the second connector.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium which stores a program for causing an electronic device to execute a control method,
- the control method comprising:
- selecting a battery as a power source that supplies power to a functional circuit of the electronic device;
- and
- in a case where a first power supply apparatus is connected to a first connector of the electronic device in a situation where a second power supply apparatus is not connected to a second connector of the electronic device, controlling to switch the power source from the battery to the first power supply apparatus,
- wherein in a case where a remaining amount of the battery is not greater than or equal to a predetermined amount,
- the control method performs control such that the power source is not switched from the battery to the first power supply apparatus even in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector in a situation where the second power supply apparatus is not connected to the second connector, and
- the control method performs control such that the power source is switched from the battery to the first power supply apparatus or the second power supply apparatus in a case where the first power supply apparatus is connected to the first connector and furthermore the second power supply apparatus is connected to the second connector.
