  • Publication number: 20230406323
    Abstract: A method of monitoring for circumvention of an ignition interlock system is described herein including detecting an electrical parameter associated with an electrical power state of a vehicle electrical system in a vehicle comprising an ignition interlock device that includes at least a relay device and a controller device electrically interconnected within the vehicle electrical system, measuring a rate of degradation associated with the electrical parameter of the vehicle electrical system, and comparing the electrical parameter to a threshold condition. The method further includes comparing the rate of degradation of the electrical parameter to a threshold rate. Depending on the rate of degradation, a violation state may be generated, a violation state may be reversed, a violation state may be maintained, a log entry may be generated, or more than one of these may occur.

  • Publication number: 20230198335
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a motor lead cable includes the steps of forming one or more motor leads and placing external armor around the one or motor leads. The step of forming each of the one or more motor leads includes providing an insulated conductor, providing an open capillary tube that has opposing sides that have not been joined together, placing the insulated conductor inside the unclosed capillary tube, approximating the sides of the unclosed capillary tube around the insulated conductor, and welding the sides of the capillary tube together to form a closed capillary tube around the insulated conductor.

  • Patent number: 11379914
    Abstract: A system includes a server operable to communicatively couple with a customer interface device (CID) such that state-of-life inputs from the CID are communicated to the server. The server includes a memory configured to store the state-of-life inputs and storing a program executable by a processor of the server. The server also includes a processor configured to execute the program such that the program determines a financial service product based on the state-of-life inputs and such that the server issues a communication to the CID including a recommendation of the financial service product. The processor is also configured to format one or more selections made by the customer from the recommendation on a single-rail managed account product continuum having two or more financial service products.

  • Publication number: 20220148759
    Abstract: An electric submersible pumping system includes a motor, a pump driven by the motor, and a cable that provides electrical power to the motor. The cable includes a conductor and an insulator surrounding the conductor. The insulator includes a first layer surrounding the conductor and a second layer surrounding the first layer. The insulator may include an H2S scavenger and an H2S reactant in the first or second layers surrounding the conductor. The cable optionally includes a sub-insulator layer that includes a metal or nitride coating applied directly to the conductor.

  • Patent number: 10721623
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a device and method for validating users, such as for entry into a given area. The method includes transmitting a plurality of access control tokens from an access control system to a portable device, and detecting proximity a user portable device associated with one of the plurality of access control tokens to the portable device. A symbolic representation of the access control token associated with the user portable device is generated by and displayed on the portable device. Selection of the displayed symbolic representation is accepted at the portable device. The access control system is notified of selection of the displayed symbolic representation, thereby indicating identification of a user associated with the access control token symbolically represented by the symbolic representation. The venue symbolic representation includes at least one pictograph.
