Abstract: A luminometer (400) includes a light detector (630) configured to sense photons (135). The luminometer (400) includes an analog circuit (915a) configured to provide an analog signal (965) based on the photons (135) emitted from assay reactions over a time period and a counter circuit (915b) configured to provide a photon count (970) based on the photons (135) emitted from the assay reactions over the time period. The luminometer (400) includes a luminometer controller (905) configured to, in response to an analog signal value of the analog signal (965) being greater than a predetermined value, determine and report a measurement value of the photons (135) emitted from the assay reactions over the time period based on the analog signal value of the analog signal (965) and a linear function (1010). Optionally, the linear function (1010) is derived from a relationship between the analog signal (965) and the photon count (970).

Abstract: A system and method for material handling includes a first portable conveyor for feeding material to a mobile bridge conveyor for the material to be stacked via a stacker until a discharge end of the mobile bridge conveyor is at or within a predetermined distance of a discharge end of the first portable conveyor. The first portable conveyor moves away from the mobile bridge conveyor after the discharge end of mobile bridge conveyor is at or within the predetermined distance of the discharge end of the first portable conveyor. A second portable conveyor that feeds material to the first portable conveyor rotates such that a discharge end of the second portable conveyor is moved towards the mobile bridge conveyor until reaching a feeding position for feeding material to the mobile bridge.

Abstract: A mobile crushing station for receiving and comminuting excavated material from earth moving vehicles provides at least one moveable skip connected to a chassis or frame for receiving material from vehicles, such as rear unloading vehicles like dump trucks. The skips are configured to move to dump material fed into the skips into a feed hopper. The feed hopper is positioned to guide material onto a feed conveyor, such as an inclined apron conveyor. The feed conveyor is configured to transport material to a feed orifice of a crushing device, such as a sizer, a crusher, or a crushing circuit. The crushing device is configured to crush material fed into the crushing device. The crushing device also has a discharge orifice that is positioned above a portion of a discharge conveyor. The mobile crushing station is moveable so it may be repositioned closer to an excavation site as excavation activities progress.

Abstract: Embodiments manage data transfer requests representing backup operations and update operations from a computing device using a centralized data transfer service. The data transfer service selects the data transfer requests for performance based at least on data usage statistics associated with a data usage plan and available network connections on the computing device. For the backup operations, the data transfer requests are also selected based on priority information associated with each of the backup operations. In some embodiments, the data transfer service selects and initiates the data transfer requests without incurring excess data transfer costs for the user.

Abstract: A mobile sizing station includes a crushing device and a hopper device. A conveyor device extends between a hopper of the hopper device to a crusher mechanism of the crushing device to transport material fed to the hopper to the crusher mechanism to crush the material. The hopper of the hopper device is supported on a base that has a plurality of frame members. A first frame member is pivotally connected to a second frame member and is also rotatably supported such that the first frame member is rotatable. The second frame member is pivotally connected to a third frame member and the third frame member is connected to the hopper. The hopper is thereby rotatable and is tiltable about the pivotal connections between the second and third frame members and is also tiltable about the pivotal connection between the first and second frame members.
