Abstract: A system and method for detecting integrity of a position for a mover in an independent cart system, includes receiving multiple first position feedback signals at a first processing core and receiving multiple second position feedback signals at a second processing core. Each of the first and second position feedback signals are generated by first and second position sensors, respectively, by detecting a magnet array mounted on the mover. A first value of the position of the mover is generated with the first processing core responsive to the first position feedback signals, and a second value of the position of the mover is generated with the second processing core responsive to the second position feedback signals. The first and second values of the position of the mover are compared with either the first or second processing core to verify operation of the first and second position sensors.

Abstract: During operation, an access point may provide a first WLAN and a second WLAN, where the first WLAN uses a WPA2-compatible authentication protocol and the second WLAN uses a WPA3-compatible authentication protocol. In response to an association request or a probe request associated with (or from) an electronic device, the access point may establish a connection with the electronic device using the first WLAN. Then, the access point may confirm, with a computer system, that a binding between a passphrase associated with the electronic device and the second WLAN exists. Alternatively, when the binding does not exist, the access point may establish the binding in the computer system. Next, the access point may perform a BSS transition of the electronic device from the first WLAN to the second WLAN.
