Abstract: System for displaying hazard events and adjusting hazard detector settings on a mobile device includes a user interface executed on the mobile device, a hazard detector, and a computer server system communicatively coupled to the mobile device and hazard detector. The hazard detector generates hazard events indicating detection of smoke or carbon monoxide. The hazard events are transmitted to the computer server system and then to the mobile device. User interface displays the hazard events in an event group. User interface receives an adjusted value for a setting of the hazard detector and transmits the adjusted value to the computer server system. The computer server system determines that the adjusted value corresponds to the hazard detector, receives a check-in event from the hazard detector, and transmits the adjusted value to the hazard detector in response to receiving the check-in event. The hazard detector applies the adjusted value to the setting.

Abstract: A method and system that enables data to be shared across application systems via a table substitution scheme. Tables are identified in the legacy application system that are candidates for substitution of tables in the core application system containing similar data. Table structure meta data corresponding to these “substituted” tables are then extracted from the legacy system schema, and stored in a repository. In accordance with the meta data, business logic is defined to remap columns in the core tables to corresponding columns in the substituted tables. Accordingly, when the core application system performs data access (e.g., reads, inserts, updates, etc.), it accesses the remapped columns in the substituted tables instead of original columns in the core tables. At the same time, the legacy application system is enabled to concurrently access the substituted tables without require any changes to the business logic of the legacy application system.

Abstract: A hazard detector may include a light sensor that senses a brightness level in an ambient environment. The hazard detector can have a processing system that receives an indication of the brightness level in the ambient environment from the light sensor. The processing system may then determine whether illumination in the ambient environment has been dimmed. Responsive to the dimming, the processing system may access information representative of a status of one or more components of the hazard detector. An illumination state may then be selected from a plurality of illumination states based on the accessed information representative of the status of the one or more components of the hazard detector. A light may then be illuminated based on the selected illumination state.
