Abstract: A computer readable media, a method, and a system registering a third party application providing an available communication system between a local user and a remote user identity, storing information related to the available communication system in a first database, obtaining contact information for the remote user identity from the third party application, determining a communication type for the third party application, pairing the remote user identity with a contact, and updating a graphical representation of contact information.

Abstract: A calibration system includes a housing, a drive shaft within the housing, a load application apparatus operatively connected to the drive shaft to apply a force to the drive shaft, and a plurality of housing transducers operatively connected to the drive shaft to measure at least one of an in-line torque or a prevailing torque of the drive shaft. A method for calibrating a tool includes generating at least one of a pass or fail output from a processing unit based on whether a variance between a prevailing torque from a tool transducer and a prevailing torque from an external tool is within a predetermined variance threshold. A method for measuring prevailing torque in a tool includes determining whether a prevailing torque value is within a predetermined prevailing torque range and adjusting a shut-off threshold torque based on the prevailing torque.

Abstract: In one example, an apparatus includes a sensor including an emitter and a detector that define a line of sight therebetween. A mechanical arm has a fixed end and a free end. An axis of rotation passing through the fixed end of the mechanical arm is parallel to the line of sight. A mechanical flag mounted to the fixed end of the mechanical arm includes at least a first protrusion that defines at least three positions of the mechanical arm relative to the line of sight.

Abstract: There is disclosed a base member for holding, without screws, a printed circuit board having conductive traces and electronic components and which can fit into an electric outlet box. The base member has walls which define a cavity where at least one wall of the cavity has a rib, the top of which functions as a stop for the printed circuit board. A cap having snap features adapted to engage the walls of the cavity restricts removal of the printed circuit board when snapped into position on top of the printed circuit board. The cap conceals the electronics on the printed circuit board and has at least one rib on its bottom surface to apply pressure to the printed circuit board assembly to help hold it in place. An aperture in the cap provides access to a pin header which is electrically connected to the printed circuit board. A screw terminal block is provided to connect the terminals on the pin header to a sensor.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an apparatus and method for converting a low voltage occupancy sensor to a powered stand-alone unit. The invention uses a low voltage occupancy sensor mounted in an upper portion of a housing with its associated low voltage wiring terminating in a terminal block. An attachable corresponding lower housing is provided with a power pack adapted to connect with the low voltage terminal block wherein once combined the upper and lower housing portions combine to form an integral powered stand-alone sensor unit.
