Abstract:
1. A testing apparatus for a television system, coupled to a mobile storage device, the testing apparatus comprising: an intermediate module, coupled to the television system and the mobile storage device, for switching a subordinate status of the mobile storage device; a control module, coupled to the intermediate module, for controlling the intermediate module to write data into the mobile storage device and to allow the mobile storage device to output the data to the television system, wherein the control module writes data into the mobile storage by steps: a confirming module, for confirming whether the data is correctly read from the mobile storage device and written into the television by receiving a predetermined response signal from the television system to the intermediate module when the television system correctly and automatically reads the data from the mobile storage device; wherein, when the confirming module does not receive the predetermined response signal or the received predetermined response signal is incorrect, the confirming module determines that the data function of the television system automatically reading data from the mobile storage device has malfunctioned; wherein, when the subordinate status indicates the mobile storage device is a subordinate to the control module, the control module writes the data from the control module to the mobile storage device via the intermediate module, while the television system is not directly coupled to and unaware of the presence of the mobile storage device; and wherein, when the subordinate status indicates the mobile storage device is a subordinate to the television system, the television system automatically reads the data from the mobile storage device.
