Abstract: A circuit may include one or more first ports that may receive one or more input signals from a first device, such that the one or more first ports may couple to a control system. The control system may generate one or more output signals based on the one or more input signals. The circuit may also include one or more second ports that may couple to a second device, such that the one or more second ports may couple to the one or more first ports via a direct connection. The control system may also couple the one or more output signals to the one or more second ports.

Abstract: For determining a tag based location, a display presents the image. A processor identifies a given equipment tag within the image at a user focus determined at the augmented reality display. The processor further determines a device location based on the given equipment tag.

Abstract: A safety-rated industrial device, such as a motor drive, is provided with a safety subsystem that is initially bypassed as a factory default mode. While the safety subsystem is disabled, the device operates as a standard non-safety device, allowing users to perform operations with the device (e.g., turning a motor in the case of motor drives) without requiring safety input devices or a safety controller to be connected to the device. The device continues to operate as a standard non-safety device until a proper safety configuration is applied to the device, whereby the device's safety subsystem is retentatively enabled and the device begins operating as a safety-rated device. While the safety subsystem is enabled, certain device operations that were permitted during standard mode independently of an attached safety controller or safety input devices are made contingent on the monitored status of an associated safety system.
