    Abstract: Message notifications to an accessory from a mobile communication device are provided according to some embodiments of the invention. When a message such as a text message, email, and/or voicemail is received at a mobile communication device, the mobile communication device can notify an attached accessory that a message has been received. In response, the accessory can request the full message, media associated with the message, an attachment to the message, and/or an audio/video stream of the message for presentation to a user.

    Abstract: Techniques for facilitating communication between a portable media device (PMD) and an accessory via multiple communication paths. The accessory has a unique accessory identifier that it can send to the PMD upon establishing a connection via each communication path. The PMD can determine whether the same accessory is connected via multiple communication paths based on the accessory identifier received via each communication path. The PMD can route information to the accessory and control routing of information from the accessory based on the set of communication paths that are currently connected and can dynamically change the routing as communication paths are connected and disconnected.

    Abstract translation: 用于通过多个通信路径促进便携式媒体设备(PMD)和附件之间的通信的技术。 附件具有独特的附件标识符,可以通过每个通信路径建立连接后发送到PMD。 PMD可以基于经由每个通信路径接收到的附件标识来确定相同的附件是否经由多个通信路径连接。 PMD可以将信息路由到附件,并根据当前连接的一组通信路径控制来自附件的信息的路由,并可以随着通信路径的连接和断开而动态地改变路由。

    Abstract: A holistic identification process can facilitate reliable interoperation between accessories and host devices, particularly where the accessory includes multiple components and/or multiple communication interfaces. During an identification process, the accessory can provide information about every communication interface it is capable of using to communicate with the host as well as information about various components that the accessory has available for use in interacting with the host device. During subsequent interoperation, the host device can use the identification information to determine a response to an input received from the accessory and/or to determine an interface to use to deliver information to the accessory.

    Abstract translation: 整体识别过程可以促进附件和主机设备之间的可靠的互操作,特别是在附件包括多个组件和/或多个通信接口的情况下。 在识别过程中,附件可以提供关于其能够用于与主机通信的每个通信接口的信息,以及关于附件可用于与主机设备交互的各种组件的信息。 在随后的互操作期间,主机设备可以使用识别信息来确定对从附件接收的输入的响应和/或确定用于向附件传送信息的接口。

    Abstract: Shareable code objects (including a data object and/or executable program code) can be shared between accessories and mobile devices to facilitate interoperation of accessories and mobile devices. For instance, a shareable code object that contains configuration data for a particular accessory can be obtained by a mobile device from one accessory and subsequently shared with other accessories of similar type when they connect to the mobile device. As another example, a shareable code object that includes executable program code can facilitate interoperation of the accessory and the mobile device without the user having to download and install an app.

    Abstract translation: 共享代码对象(包括数据对象和/或可执行程序代码)可以在附件和移动设备之间共享,以促进附件和移动设备的互操作。 例如,包含特定附件的配置数据的共享代码对象可以由移动设备从一个附件获得,并且随后与其他连接到移动设备的类似类型的附件共享。 作为另一示例,包括可执行程序代码的可共享代码对象可以促进附件和移动设备的互操作,而不需要用户下载和安装应用。

    Abstract: A host device can manage a controllable power adapter accessory using a communication protocol. Based on information provided by the controllable power adapter accessory as to its power capabilities and the power needs and preferences of the host device, the host device can determine a desired power profile and request power from the accessory conforming to the desired profile. The desired power profile can also depend in part on the power-carrying capability of one or more cables connected between the host device and the accessory. In some instances, the host device and controllable power adapter accessory can be connected via an intermediary accessory that can siphon power from the controllable power adapter accessory, and the host device can manage the power siphoning behavior of the intermediary accessory using the communication protocol.

    Abstract translation: 主机设备可以使用通信协议管理可控电源适配器附件。 基于由可控电力适配器附件提供的关于其功率能力和主机设备的功率需求和偏好的信息,主机设备可以根据期望的配置文件确定期望的功率分布和请求功率。 期望的功率分布也可以部分地取决于连接在主机设备和附件之间的一个或多个电缆的功率承载能力。 在一些情况下,主机设备和可控电源适配器附件可以经由可从可控电源适配器附件虹吸电力的中间附件连接,并且主机设备可以使用通信协议来管理中间配件的功率虹吸行为。

    Abstract: A message-based identification process can facilitate reliable interoperation between accessories and host devices. During an identification process, the devices can negotiate an operating agreement that specifies particular communications (e.g., messages) that each device is permitted to send to or receive from the other, for example by having one device send a list of specific messages that it intends to send to and/or receive from the other. The other device can review the proposal and either accept or reject it. If a proposal is accepted, the devices can begin interoperating using messages that were included in the agreed-upon proposal while ignoring any received messages that were not included in the agreed-upon proposal.

    Abstract translation: 基于消息的识别过程可以促进附件和主机设备之间的可靠互操作。 在识别过程中,设备可以协商一个操作协议,该操作协议规定了每个设备被允许发送到另一个设备或从另一个设备接收的特定通信(例如,消息),例如通过使一个设备发送其意图的特定消息的列表 从另一个发送到和/或从另一个接收。 另一个设备可以查看提案,接受或拒绝。 如果提案被接受,设备可以开始使用包含在商定的提案中的消息进行互操作,同时忽略未包含在商定的提案中的任何收到的消息。
