Abstract: A network switching environment includes a network switch coupled to a port extension module by one or more network cables, and a management resource coupled to the switch and the port extension module. The configurations of the network switch and the port extension module may be dynamically controlled by a management resource to adjust to changes in the maximum bandwidth provided by the one or more network cables. The management resource may implement the network switch and port extension module configurations according to a predetermined target configuration and the connection configuration of the network switch and the port extension module.

Abstract: A system to facilitate identification of intermediate switches within a network switching fabric is described. The system includes a processor and a machine readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to detect a neighbor change event at a switch port of a network switch, determine whether a switch port neighbor device coupled to the switch port is trusted, set a status of the switch port as failed upon a determination that the switch port is untrusted, block network traffic through the switch port and generate an alert indicating that untrusted switch port neighbor device is coupled to the switch port.

Abstract: An access arrangement for a vehicle includes a vehicle-side transceiver for transmitting query signals in a chronologically successive manner in first specified time intervals. The access arrangement also includes at least one mobile identification transmitter including an identification transmitter-side transceiver with an adjustable reception sensitivity for receiving the query signals of the vehicle-side transceiver. Furthermore, the access arrangement includes a monitoring device for outputting a control command in order to reduce the sensitivity of the identification transmitter-side transceiver by a first specified amount if the identification transmitter-side transceiver has received a specified number of query signals transmitted by the vehicle-side transceiver. By reducing the reception sensitivity, a stationary identification transmitter in the vicinity of the vehicle for example remains operational but no longer reacts to query signals of the vehicle-side transceiver, whereby power can be saved.

Abstract: A method for finding a reference correction value of an angular encoder index mark is given. The angular encoder has a first read head, a second read head, and a patterned element that includes incremental marks and an index mark. In a first instance, the first read head detects the presence of the index mark and, in response, the second read head generates a first analog signal. In a second instance, the first read head detects the presence of the index mark and, in response, the second read head generates a second analog signal. A processor determines the reference correction value based at least in part on the first analog signal and the second analog signal.

Abstract: A method is given for finding a reference correction value of an index mark of an angular encoder. The angular encoder includes a first read head, a second read head, and a patterned element having incremental marks and an index mark. In a first instance and in a second instance, the patterned element is rotated relative to the read heads to obtain incremental readings from the first read head and the second read head and an index mark from the first read head. Based on these readings, a processor determines, in the first instance, a first reference position and, in the second instance, a second reference position. The processor determines the reference correction value based at least in part on the first reference position and the second reference position.

Abstract: A 3D measurement device sends a beam of light to a point on an object, receives the reflected light, and determines a distance and two angles to the point, one of the angles measured by an angular encoder, which includes a disk having incremental marks and an index mark. Light from the 3D device is rotated to reflect light from a reference reflector to produce a first synchronization signal. A first difference angle is determined based on counts of the incremental marks and on the first synchronization signal. Light from the 3D device is rotated to reflect light from the reference reflector to produce a second synchronization signal. A second difference angle is determined based on counts of the incremental marks and on the second synchronization signal. The reference correction value of the index mark is determined based on the first and second difference angles.
