Abstract: A vehicle control device for an AGV includes a call box having a user interface and a manual activation element at the user interface accessible to a user. The manual activation element generates a manual call signal. The vehicle control device includes an automated activation element operably coupled to a sensor and receiving a sensor signal from the sensor. The automated activation element generates an automated call signal based on the sensor signal without user intervention. The vehicle control device includes a communication device held by the call box that receives the manual call signal and receiving the automated call signal and communicates with the AGV to trigger operation of the AGV based on both the manual call signal and the automated call signal.

Abstract: A coaxial cable termination system for providing a reliable electrical connection of an end of a coaxial cable to an electrical device. An electrically conductive core body is cast over the core of the coaxial cable, and an electrically conductive shield body is cast over the shield of the coaxial cable, wherein the core and shield bodies are electrically and mechanically connected to the coaxial cable, yet the core and shield bodies mutually have direct current electrical isolation with respect to each other. Each of the core and shield bodies has respective attachment features for a particular application, such as for example connecting to a circuit board.
