4.2.1.3 Test
Charging problems can be discovered by measuring the voltage
between pins 1 (Power) and 2 (GND). Voltage should be between 5V
and 9,5V if system connector is working.
In order to detect an accessory when plugged into the system
connector, the following pins on the connector are used in the
detection scenario: POWER, TX/D+, RX/D-, DATA/CTS, CLK/DCD and
RTS. Table 1 shows the pins and their possible use in a detection
scenario.
2 GND GND -
3 TX/D+ H(Z) Out High/Low (Set by Phone)
4 RX/D- L(Z) In Open, Tx or high (Set by accessory)
5 DATA/CTS H(Z) In Open, Tx or low (Set by accessory)
6 RTS H(Z) In Open, Tx or low (Set by accessory)
7 CLK/DCD H(Z) In Open, Tx or low (Set by accessory)
