Publication number: 20230025954Abstract: The present invention relates to a doorbell activation floor mat device comprised of a body, further comprised of at least one sensor with at least one transmitter. The sensor is preferably a pressure sensor that is activated when a user steps on the body of the device. The sensor then sends a signal to a smart doorbell to activate the doorbell. In this manner, a user need not physically ring a doorbell.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 19, 2022Publication date: January 26, 2023Inventor: Deborah Brown

Method and apparatus for administering configuration information in a private branch exchange switch
Publication number: 20050273464Abstract: A administration tool is disclosed for administering a switch, such as a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) switch that optionally provides an IP Telephony feature. Data objects associated with one or more endpoints of the switch are processed, wherein at least one of the data objects inherits an intelligent property from another data object based on one more endpoint-specific criteria. The inheritance may occur as the result of an application of a predefined template to a data object. The processing of configuration data may be performed offline from the switch, using one or more classes of service that are stored remote from the switch. Changes to configuration data are propagated to affected data objects (e.g., those objects referenced by a changed object). The data objects may be imported from an external data source. Another aspect of the invention automatically creates one or more hunt groups populated with appropriate users during an import process.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2004Publication date: December 8, 2005Inventors: Deborah Brown, Raji Chinnappa, Prameela Gopu, Timothy Ross -
Publication number: 20050259590Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for validating configuration data in a switch. An error is detected if the configuration data fails to comply with one or more rules; and a user is presented with an interface that allows the user to correct the error. The rules may include one or more syntactic rules or conflict rules (or both). In the case of a simple error, the user is presented with an error indication with a smart error link. In the case of a conflict error, the user is presented with an error indication that identifies the conflicting endpoints and optionally allows the user to correct at least one conflicting endpoint. The configuration data is revalidated after a change is made by a user. Changes are propagated to affected data objects. A number of error types may be automatically updated.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2004Publication date: November 24, 2005Inventors: Deborah Brown, Raji Chinnappa, Prameela Gopu, Timothy Ross
