The headset comprises at least one earphone having a headset speaker, a headset microphone and a headset transceiver, the headset adapter being configured to interconnect the headset and a host device, the headset adapter comprising an adapter processor, a host interface, such as a host interface interconnecting the adapter processor and the host device, an adapter transceiver configured to establish a wireless communication link with the headset. The adapter furthermore comprises a controller configured to enable and disable the headset microphone. The adapter processor is configured to receive a request for headset microphone activation or microphone deactivation, for example from the host interface, and in response to receiving the request providing a control signal to the controller to enable or disable the headset microphone. The controller may thus activate the transceiver to configure the wireless communication link with the headset.

Systems, devices, and methods effected in response to establishing and/or terminating a physical communications link

Systems, devices, and methods that are effected in or by an electronic device in response to establishing and/or terminating a physical communications link are described. An electronic device may be entered into deep sleep and may include a power control circuit that activates the device out of deep sleep in response to establishing a physical communications link with a source of electric power, such as another electronic device. Either in combination with or separate from this, an electronic device may establish wireless communications with another electronic device in response to establishing and terminating a physical communications link with the other electronic device. The physical communications link may be used to transfer device identity data from one device to the other and thereby bypass the cumbersome “discovery” process common to conventional wireless communication techniques. Portable electronic devices and personal computing devices that are operative to perform the above are described.

Mobile terminal and controlling method thereof

A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a region desired to be shared with a watch type terminal can be guided. The present invention includes a touchscreen configured to output information, a wireless communication unit configured to communicate with a watch type terminal having a display, and a controller configured to control a display of an object on the touchscreen, in response to receiving a touch input at the touchscreen, transmitting, to the watch type terminal, control information, outputted at the displayed object or a request for the watch type terminal to transmit data corresponding to the information.
