  • Publication number: 20150343403
    Abstract: The disclosed apparatus, systems and methods relate to a remote control system for mixing equipment operated by an operator. The remote unit is used to control powered mixing equipment associated with a loading vehicle having an operator station. The remote unit is in communication with the mixing equipment and is operable by the operator to control a mixing cycle of the mixing equipment without the need for the operator to leave the loading vehicle. The mixing cycle is set to mix the material in the mixing equipment either the same number of revolutions of the mixing equipment for each load or for the same amount of elapsed time to reduce variations in the ending mixed product from load to load.

  • Publication number: 20150199541
    Abstract: A method and system for securely communication of personal information is disclosed. In one embodiment, when a user wishes to instantly populate web form (204) displayed in a web browser (122), a populate button integrated into the rendered output of the website (123) displayed in the web browser (122) triggers a request for unique code to a remote server (104) via a wire less network (108). Accordingly, the server (104) generates a unique code and displays the unique code in the web browser (122). When a first computing device (102) receives the unique code inputted by the user, the first computing device (102) communicates the unique code to the server (104). Accordingly, the server (104) validates the unique code and establishes a connection between the second computing device (106) and the first computing device (102) upon validating the unique code.
