Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a water-resistant capture device for enclosing wired electro-magnetic components, the capture device having a base module and a connecting cap module, wherein when the base module and cap module enclose an electro-magnetic component and the base module is connected to the cap module, one or more electric wires are compressed within deformable wire apertures formed by the combined base module and cap module. In some embodiments, the base module is deformable and deforms when affixed to the cap module so as to form a compressive water-resistant seal to an interior of the capture device. In an exemplary embodiment, an LED may be captured within the capture device. The cap module may provide a compressing aperture to provide a water resistant seal around the lens of a LED projecting therethrough.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for dynamically subscribing to management information and a method and system for dispensing management information. According to the present invention, a management topic and a participant associated with the management topic may be dynamically determined, and the management topic may be subscribed to for the determined participant. Therefore, it is possible to sufficiently utilize a publish/subscribe mechanism in dispensing management information in a case where the intelligence of the managed device is unequal to the intelligence of the managing device, thereby avoiding creation and utilization of an additional management channel and significantly reducing the complexity and management cost of the system.

Abstract: A supporting frame for holding a display includes a fixed base, a gas spring, a cam, a cantilever arm and a connecting element. The gas spring extends along a first direction and is disposed on the fixed base. The cam is against a pressure bearing head of the gas spring. The cantilever arm has a first end connecting to the cam. The connecting element is pivotally connected to the cantilever arm so as to hold the display. When the cantilever arm rotates toward the fixed base to cause the cam rotating, the gas spring is pressed. The gas spring is able to have various levels of elastic force and thus the display is adapted to stop at any height between a raised position and a lowered position.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to an electrical interface design architecture to independently excite each of a network of light strings and/or light string controllers with any of a number of independent excitation signals. In an illustrative example, each of the light strings may receive a selected one of the excitation signals conducted via a wiring assembly to an interface formed as a plug or a corresponding socket. In some embodiments, the interface may galvanically connect one or more of the excitation signals to a corresponding load according to user-selection of a relative orientation between the plug and the socket. In some implementations the load may include a down-stream controller that draws operating power through a selected one of the conductors at the interface. In various implementations, the interface may supply a load such as a multi-channel cable or single channel light string, for example.

Abstract: A computer-implanted method for creating a filtered digital entry includes generating, via a processor implementing a trace generation engine, a trace indicative of successful transactions and erroneous transactions. The processor instantiates a plurality of buffers in a buffer pool each configured to record a trace function boundary. The processor then analyzes each buffer in the buffer pool based on the trace function boundary to evaluate whether each function entry in the trace contains an erroneous transaction. If the processor determines that a function entry contains an erroneous transaction, the processor sets an output flag in a call stack map associated with that function. The processor then generates a filtered digital entry based on the call stack map. The filtered digital entry includes only erroneous transaction data from the trace.
