Abstract
A device to detect a select state and initiate a function based on detecting the select state. The device receives a signal sent over a bus to be used to communicate between one component of one unit and another component of another unit. The bus is defined based on a selected protocol, and the device is configured to communicate with the other component of the other unit. A determination is made as to whether the signal represents a select state, the select state being an unintended state of the bus. Based on determining that the signal represents the select state, a function is initiated.
