Abstract: An electronic lockbox with a single sensor that can detect both the position of a key compartment component (or a movable key bin) and the presence of a removable key fob (attached to a building key). The key compartment includes a first magnet and the removable key fob includes a second magnet. The single sensor can detect the presence of neither magnet, the first magnet alone, or both the first and second magnet together. If neither magnet is detected, then the key compartment (movable bin) is open. If only the first magnet is detected, then the key compartment (movable bin) has been closed without the removable key fob. If both the first and second magnets are detected, then the key compartment (movable bin) is closed with the removable key fob inside the movable bin.

Abstract: An approach for detecting rotor anomalies is disclosed. Vibration data for a vibration sensor(s) and for a transient speed operation is classified into a plurality of rotor speed ranges. A predetermined percentile vibration amplitude is determined for each rotor speed range for the vibration sensor(s). Using historical vibration measurement data obtained from a predetermined number of previous transient speed operations performed by at least the rotor, it is determine whether a vibration measurement obtained during the transient speed operation is indicative of a rotor anomaly by determining whether a trend exists in the predetermined percentile vibration amplitude for at least one of the rotor speed ranges and the vibration sensor(s) over a preset number of previous transient speed operations.

Abstract: An electronic lockbox system allows both sales agents and sales prospects to communicate either with the lockbox, or with the central clearinghouse computer. Contextual data then is provided to the sales prospect while the prospect is visiting a specific property that is the site of a lockbox installation.
