Abstract: Interlocking clips include a first clip and a second clip. The first and second clips each include a baseplate, a coupling arm protruding from the baseplate, and a groove defined by the coupling arm. The baseplates of the first and second clips configured to affix to a building support and the surface panel, respectively. The groove includes an inlet opening, an inlet portion extending from the inlet opening, and an end portion extending from the inlet portion. The grooves of the first clip and the second clip are configured to receive the coupling arm of the other one of the first clip and the second clip. A surface panel support system includes interlocking clips. A method of attaching a surface panel to a building support includes interlocking a first clip affixed to the surface panel with a second clip affixed to the building support.

Abstract: An automatic wireless pairing method includes causing a base unit to wirelessly communicate with a number of wireless peripheral devices and wirelessly receive a peripheral device data signal from each of the wireless peripheral devices, wherein the peripheral device data signal received from each of the wireless peripheral devices is based on one or more measurements made by a sensor of the wireless peripheral device, analyzing in the base unit each of the peripheral device data signals, selecting in the base unit one or more of the wireless peripheral devices based on the analyzing of the peripheral device data signals, and responsive to the selecting step, establishing or maintaining wireless communication according to the wireless communications protocol between the base unit and the selected one or more of the wireless peripheral devices and not the wireless peripheral devices other than the selected one or more of the wireless peripheral devices.
