User equipment connectable to an external device

摘要

Provided are user equipment connectable to an external device and a method for establishing a connection between user equipment including second constituent elements and an external device including first constituent elements and controlling the external device. The method may include sensing the connection to the external device, obtaining first constituent element information from the external device through the connection, wherein the first constituent element information includes information on first constituent elements of the external device, selecting target constituent elements to control from the first constituent elements of the external device based on the obtained first constituent element information, reconfiguring a control path for controlling the selected target constituent elements of the external device, and controlling the selected target constituent elements of the external device through the reconfigured control path.

1. A method for establishing a connection between user equipment including second constituent elements and an external device including first constituent elements and controlling the external device, the method comprising:
sensing the connection to the external device; obtaining a first constituent element identification table from the external device through the connection, wherein the first constituent element identification table includes a corresponding constituent element identification number for each first constituent element of the external device; selecting target constituent elements to control from the first constituent elements of the external device according to a constituent element identification number comparison between the first constituent element identification table and a second constituent element identification table, wherein the second constituent element identification table is stored in the user equipment and includes a corresponding constituent element identification number for each second constituent element of the user equipment; reconfiguring a control path for controlling the selected target constituent elements of the external device; and controlling the selected target constituent elements of the external device through the reconfigured control path, wherein the corresponding constituent element identification number is an identification value differently defined according to a constituent element type, and does not represent a constituent element connection status; and wherein the selecting includes:
comparing constituent element identification numbers included in the first constituent element identification table and constituent element identification numbers included in the second constituent element identification table;selecting constituent elements having the same constituent element identification numbers from the first constituent elements, according to a result of the constituent element identification number comparison; anddetermining the selected constituent elements as the target constituent elements to control.
