  • Patent number: 11220859
    Abstract: A room protection mechanism for protecting access through a window or doorway includes a flexible barrier sheet adjustable between a collapsed, storage configuration, and a deployed configuration. The protection mechanism includes a housing storing the flexible barrier sheet in the collapsed configuration. Sheet magnetic elements are attached to the flexible barrier sheet, and structured to magnetically couple to frame magnetic elements mounted to a frame of the doorway or window. The protection mechanism can be deployed, such as in a school or other institutional setting, to position the flexible barrier sheet to block access through the doorway or window. The flexible barrier sheet may be formed of or include a ballistic material.

  • Patent number: 10152032
    Abstract: A system and method is provided that facilitates controlling and monitoring environmental conditions in buildings. The system may include at least one rack including: a plurality of slidable field panels mounted in a housing. The slidable field panels may be in side-by-side relation in a horizontal direction and may be configured to independently slide at least partially out of a front side opening of the housing via a plurality of slides. The slidable field panels may include a plurality of components mounted to vertical walls thereof, including: transformers and building control modules. The rack may also include a terminal panel including a plurality of connection terminals facing a back side opening of the housing. The connection terminals may be respectively wired to respective terminals of the transformers and building control.

  • Patent number: 9030315
    Abstract: An automation component configured for wireless communication within a building automation system is disclosed. The automation component includes a communication module having a communication port, and a wireless communication component. The automation component further includes a processor in communication with the communication module, a memory in communication with the processor, the memory configured to store computer readable instructions which are executable by the processor. The computer readable instructions are programmed to receive a component identifier via the communications port, generate a binding request based on the received component identifier, and communicate the binding request via the wireless communication component.
