Abstract: A system determines a current state of an information handling system, and receives a sensor output signal. The system determines whether a status change of the sensor output signal relates to an expected state based on the current state and a previous state of the information handling system, and determines whether the sensor output signal is triggered by an external magnet. If the status change of the sensor output signal relates to the expected state and the sensor output signal is not triggered by the external magnet, then the system transitions the information handling system from the current state to the expected state.
