Patent number: 11979947Abstract: Gateway devices can use dual cellular interfaces, each assignable to at least one of a plurality of network services, to provide reliable communications for client machines. A gateway device can use one of the dual cellular interfaces assigned to a first network service as a primary interface and the other assigned to a second network service as a hot backup interface. The backup interface remains connected to a cellular network while communications are routed on the primary interface. Accordingly, the gateway device can rapidly switch communications between from the primary interface to the backup interface. Applications, for example, for ATM payment processing, vending machine telemetry, point of sale payment processing, kiosk internet connectivity, remote monitoring and control, mobile or electronic health, and remote information displays, may run on the gateway devices, on servers, on user devices, or a combination of these devices.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: SYSTECH CORPORATIONInventors: La Vaughn F. Watts, Jr., Dean McDaniel, Donald G. Armerding, Andrew Marder, Anderson Wiese, Robert Lutz

Publication number: 20230403556Abstract: The systems and methods provide the ability to physically access just the AP SSID device and remotely join the Client device to the AP SSID without knowing the SSID or password. This allows for the installer (the owner, a technical installer, service personnel, or novice) to install one or more devices to the desired SSID using the industry standard protocol for WPS. This is especially useful for unattended devices like extenders, bridges, routers, gateways, etc.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2021Publication date: December 14, 2023Inventors: Anderson WIESE, La Vaughn Ferguson WATTS, Jr.

Publication number: 20230328815Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for automated pairing of external devices to a gateway. An example method may include retrieving, by the gateway, device identifiers of the external devices associated with a gateway identifier of the gateway device, the device identifiers retrieved over a network interface between the gateway device and a database storing the device identifiers. The method also includes receiving, by the gateway, a first device identifier from a first external device over a local-area communication interface between the first external device and the gateway device, the local-area communication interface implemented according to a local area transport protocol. The method further includes determining that the first device identifier is valid based on the device identifiers retrieved from the database, and, based on the determination, executing a pairing process with the first external device according to the local-area transport protocol.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2021Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Anderson WIESE, Robert LUTZ

Patent number: 10652328Abstract: Systems, methods, and media for managing gateways. In an embodiment, a virtual gateway is generated which comprises a representation of each of one or more active scripts and/or device information (e.g., device drivers, and/or definitions and/or configurations for devices, device types, and/or device groups) stored on at least one remote physical gateway. At least one user interface is provided for editing each of the one or more active scripts and/or device information represented in the virtual gateway. Synchronization is automatically maintained, across at least one network, between the one or more active scripts and/or device information represented in the virtual gateway and the one or more active scripts and/or device information stored on the at least one remote physical gateway.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2019Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: SYSTECH CORPORATIONInventors: La Vaughn Ferguson Watts, Jeff Rucker, Anderson Wiese, Roger Wellington-Oguri

Patent number: 10536295Abstract: In an embodiment, the infrastructure comprises a script execution module that comprises a compiler that compiles scripts, having instructions that reference device properties, into virtual-machine programs, a virtual machine that executes virtual-machine programs, and a script manager that stores scripts, retrieves scripts, and loads scripts into the compiler. In addition, the infrastructure may comprise gateway(s), communicatively connected to physical device(s). The gateway(s) may each comprise processor(s), driver(s) that each communicate with at least one physical device using a communication protocol to read and/or write device properties of the physical device, and a device manager that maps device properties referenced in the virtual-machine programs to device properties used by the driver(s).Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2019Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: SYSTECH CORPORATIONInventors: John Fairweather, Gabriel Jacobo, Robert Lutz, Jason Peressini, Jeff Rucker, La Vaughn F.
