Abstract: A power supply employs a dynamic charging system and method for charging a battery, as well as a load shedding system and method for conserving battery life in the event of a power failure. The dynamic charging system and method includes at least one step during which the battery is analyzed in real time to determine the actual voltage of the battery, and then determines a charging voltage based at least in part on the actual battery voltage plus a charge differential. The load shedding system and method determines that a power failure has occurred and that the power supply is operating power of a battery, determines that a first event has occurred, and in response thereto terminates battery power to a first subset of components and determines that a second event has occurred, and in response thereto, terminates battery power to a second subset of components.

Abstract: An electric door lock and monitoring system and method of use provides for intelligent control of a door lock, including fire alarm control and monitoring. The system employs location-based rules to facilitate code compliance, such that the system controls the door lock at least in part based on a selected subset of the location-based rules data, the subset of location-based rules data being automatically selected by the processor at least in part based on data indicative of a geographic location of the electronic door lock. The system, also employs spoken word alarms increase in frequency and/or in sound pitch over time to portray increased urgency.

Abstract: An intelligent power distribution management system and method of use for intelligent control of power door locks and any other devices requiring managed power to enhance installation setup, increase functionality and versatility, include local diagnostic computation, extend communication capability for remote monitoring and control, monitor load conditions with the ability to signal and enact protective action as well as alert a user via alarms and LED indicators. The electrified power lock manager is remotely programmable and has a programmable controller, digitally controlled auto resetting solid-state circuit breakers, intelligent detection and measurement of power door lock voltage and current, and the ability to provide early detection of power door lock failure while sending a notification when detecting a failure.

Abstract: An intelligent security system that can be retrofit with existing equipment in the field, where the system, upon connection to existing End-Of-Line resistors automatically reads and calibrates itself to function with the various resistors already installed. The system provides for interrogation of non-supervised devices and may be remotely managed via a network connection. The system is designed as a fully integrated and easy to install security system that minimizes installation time and costs and provides for a compact and neat controller.

Abstract: A vehicle deceleration detection circuitry, upon which, a vehicle's rear brake lights will provide to a trailing vehicle, a continuous and variable intensity brake light as an indication of its braking pattern. In addition, in case of emergency braking, an additional light or strobe and an audible alert buzzer or horn will be turned on as to provide additional warning to a trailing vehicle. The vehicle deceleration detection circuit includes a microprocessor for providing continuous braking pattern indication, even if the vehicle is skidding on ice or oil; a condition which generates no G-force, which will not trip any mechanical detector.
