Abstract: Sheet product dispensers provided herein include a spindle mounted to a spindle mounting arm. A pressure plate positioned at least partially within the spindle mounting arm aligns with a roll of sheet product installed on the spindle. When the spindle mounting arm is in a dispensing state and the pressure plate is unextended, the pressure plate is configured to prevent rotation of the spindle mounting arm to a loading state, and, when the spindle mounting arm is in the dispensing state and the pressure plate is extended, the pressure plate is configured to allow transition of the spindle mounting arm to the loading state. Force from the roll of sheet product causes the pressure plate to remain unextended, and a sufficient amount of sheet product from the roll of sheet product having been depleted removes the force such that the pressure plate becomes extended.

Abstract: A method of motor control device emulation includes receiving, via a network-enabled motor control device, a communication request corresponding to an emulated motor control device. The method further includes modifying the communication request to match an expected communication request. Additionally, the method includes providing a modified communication request to an associated hardware module within the network-enabled motor control device. Further, the expected communication request is based on the network-enabled motor control device.
