Abstract
A host apparatus capable of sensing failure in an external device connected thereto through communication cable, comprises an external signal detector for sensing failure in the external device by detecting signals of the external device through the communication cable; a display for outputting a predetermined message; and a controller for displaying a predetermined warning message informing the failure on the display, if the external signal detector senses the failure in the external device. Therefore, a user can be informed of the failure in the external device.
