Abstract: The invention is directed to a system for remote monitoring of a space and equipment. The space and equipment may, for example, be a server room and associated network equipment. The system has network appliances, a server, and a client machine. The server receives data from a network appliance. The server may then deliver an application and data to the client machine for viewing and manipulating the data. The client machine may display the data as a mapping, displaying icons associated with the network appliances. The client machine may also graph the data. Further, the client machine may manipulate the organization of the data, the configuration settings of the network appliances, and store map and graph configurations.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a system and method for displaying data associated with network appliances. Icons may be arranged in a display area in accordance with a characteristic associated with the network appliances. This characteristic may be related to location, alarm state, sensor value, or others. Further, the icons may display visual indication associated with network appliance parameters. Moreover, the icons may be superimposed on a graphical element. This element may be a map, blueprint, image, or plot. Further, a set of historical data may be replayed through the display by altering the visual indications of the icons and the graphical element in accordance with a sequence of values contained in the historical data.

Abstract: A method for displaying a network topology begins by presenting a user a set of attributes for network objects in the network. The user the selects a given attribute and an attribute value. A mapper routine of the invention then builds a topology map that includes at least one icon representing network objects that have the user-selected attribute value for the attribute. This “group” icon preferably includes a numeric, textual or graphical representation to indicate the number of objects (or perhaps some given characteristic thereof) represented by the group icon.

Abstract: A drive system is described for driving high-inertia loads such as, for example, conveyor belts for carrying minerals in mines, quarries, etc.

Abstract: A scoop controlled fluid coupling has a toroidal working circuit W defined by vaned impeller and runner elements 11,12. Working liquid is supplied to the working circuit W from a rotating reservoir 9 by an adjustable scoop tube 15 having a scooping orifice 16, the radial position of which is to determine the degree of filling of the circuit W. To counteract unintentional changes in the filling due to thermal expansion of the liquid, the runner diameter is about 10% smaller than that of the impeller, and the runner has two sets of holes 54,55 which permit liquid to escape from the circuit.
