Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for automatically provisioning customer-specific credentials on a gateway device, Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), or the like. A method, according to one implementation, includes the step of determining when a remote gateway device is connected to a Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) server via a network. The remote gateway device is intended to enable one or more user devices in a Local Area Network (LAN) to access the Internet via the network and PPPoE server. The method also includes the step of automatically configuring customer-specific PPPoE credentials on the remote gateway device to thereby enable the PPPoE server to authenticate the remote gateway device and grant Internet access.

Abstract: A method that includes introducing at least one analyte into a gas plasma; generating neutral species from atoms of the analyte in the gas plasma; preferentially transporting the neutral species downstream of the gas plasma relative to any ions produced in the gas plasma; and reacting the neutral species of the analyte with at least one reagent ion downstream of the plasma resulting in ion species of the analyte, wherein the at least one reagent ion is supplied by an independent ion source.

Abstract: An automated storage and retrieval facility is disclosed including a storage structure, mobile robots and mobile racks for use in inventory management, order fulfillment and automation-based capacity planning. In examples, a rack or racking system may be used to transport containers, for example, totes. The rack is configured to attach to a load/unload docking station at the storage structure that enables the mobile robots to load totes onto the rack and/or unload totes from the rack. The racks can further be loaded onto a truck that transports the totes between facilities.

Abstract: A plumbing fitting with an outer body having a flow path extending therethrough, an inner body disposed in, and axially movable along an axis relative to the outer body, and sealing configured to prevent leakage of fluid from the plumbing fitting is disclosed. The inner body has tracks and the outer body has projections that are movable. Each track has a primary, outer portion, a secondary central portion and a tertiary outer portion. The angle of inclination of the secondary central portion is greater than the angle of inclination of the primary outer portion and of the tertiary outer portion. The angle of inclination is relative to the axis of axial movement. The plumbing fitting is movable between a first sealing configuration in which the projections are arranged in the primary outer portions, and a second sealing configuration in which the projections are arranged in the tertiary outer portions.

In the second position, the mechanism can be released from the receptacle while a fluid flows through the flow path.

Abstract: Systems and processes for scanning a user interface are disclosed. One process can include scanning multiple elements within a user interface by highlighting the elements. The process can further include receiving a selection while one of the elements is highlighted and performing an action on the element that was highlighted when the selection was received. The action can include scanning the contents of the selected element or performing an action associated with the selected element. The process can be used to navigate an array of application icons, a menu of options, a standard desktop or laptop operating system interface, or the like. The process can also be used to perform gestures on a touch-sensitive device or mouse and track pad gestures (e.g., flick, tap, or freehand gestures).
