Abstract
A method for detecting and responding to a configuration setting capable of causing undesired energy consumption in a configurable electronic device comprises measuring a power state of at least one connection point of the configurable electronic device to establish a measured power state value; comparing the measured power state value with a stored power state value for the connection point; and responsive to a discrepancy between the measured power state value and the stored power state value for the connection point where the discrepancy is capable of causing undesired energy consumption, emitting a condition signal.
