Abstract: A method for pairing and controlling multiple loudspeaker systems within a network. The network includes multiple control units, each having Bluetooth and RF chipsets, an MCU, and at least one transceiver. One control unit, the master unit, is operatively connected to a first loudspeaker system. A second control unit, the slave unit, is operatively connected to a second loudspeaker system. The master unit generates and records an IV key. The IV key and master unit identifying information are transmitted to, and recorded by, the slave unit. The IV key is then used to initiate communication between the master and slave units. Slave unit identifying information is transmitted to, and recorded by, the master unit. The master unit then transmits digital data to the slave unit, which relays the data to the second loudspeaker system. The first and second loudspeaker systems then simultaneously perform a task associated with the digital data.

Abstract: An electrical distribution system for personal water craft and recreational vehicles. The primary components include a digital switching device; a series of power lines; and one or more remote controls, a control panel, or both. The digital switching device is preferably a bank of solid state relay switches controlled by an MCU. The control panel also has an MCU. The control panel MCU communicates with the digital switching device MCU. This allows signals from the control panel to travel on a single communication cable to the digital switching device, significantly reducing the control panel footprint compared to prior art control panels. When a radio frequency (RF) receiver is provided, the electrical distribution system may receive signals from a remote control. The remote control may be utilized in addition to or in lieu of the control panel. Power lines run from the digital switching device to wherever power is desired in the vessel.
