  • Patent number: 11050237
    Abstract: A circuit breaker failure protection relay includes an input circuit to which an opening command from a first circuit breaker is input, and a circuit breaker failure detection element configured to compare a magnitude of a current detection signal in a power system with a setting value to make a determination about an overcurrent. The circuit breaker failure detection element is capable of changing the setting value to a first value and a second value that is larger than the first value according to a switching signal. The circuit breaker failure protection relay is configured to, when the opening command is input and when the circuit breaker failure detection element determines that an overcurrent occurs, output an opening command for the second circuit breaker in a neighborhood of the first circuit breaker.

  • Patent number: 10955447
    Abstract: In a fault waveform recording device, a first storage stores data detected in a power system, the data being up-to-date and indicating an electrical quantity during a first period, and halts the updating of the data stored in the first storage after a second period has elapsed since an abnormality detection time at which an abnormality in the power system is detected. The second period is shorter than the first period. First operation unit stores data in a first interval as is into a second storage, among the data of the first period stored in the first storage after the updating of the data stored in the first storage is halted, the first interval including the abnormality detection time, and decimates data in a second interval different from the first interval.

  • Patent number: 9929822
    Abstract: An electric fader drive unit includes a drive portion, a fader position control portion, and an electric fader control portion. The drive portion drives an electric fader by supplying drive power to the electric fader. The fader position control portion indicates a target position of the electric fader. The electric fader control portion receives an indication of the target position from the fader position control portion, and, when controlling the drive portion to move the electric fader to the target position, moves the electric fader to the target position by changing the drive power maintained at preparation drive power less than the minimum drive power that is the lowest drive power required for moving the electric fader to a predetermined drive power not less than the minimum drive power.

  • Patent number: 9323240
    Abstract: When a controlled device receives a change command from a control device, the controlled device changes a real current memory, generates a change notification that includes first data indicative of the control device having transmitted the change command and second data indicative of the change result in response to the change command, and transmits the generated change notification to the plurality of control devices. Each control device receives a change notification from the controlled devices, changes a virtual current memory based on the second data of the change notification if the first data of the change notification does not indicate the control device. Each control device does not change the virtual current based on the second data included in the change notification if the first data indicates the control device.

  • Patent number: 8175731
    Abstract: A digital mixer has a custom component specified by a configuration ID. Further, the same configuration ID is provided to another custom component for ensuring compatibility of scene data which is used for operating the custom component. When a custom component of the mixer configuration is edited, the edited custom component is provided with the same configuration ID as the initial custom component before the editing. Scene data of the initial custom component can be copied to scene data of the edited custom component or vice versa provided that their configuration IDs match with each other.

  • Patent number: 7698007
    Abstract: A digital mixer has a processor capable of executing a program to constitute an audio signal processing unit corresponding to various mixer configurations. Configuration ID is attached to each mixer configuration, and the same configuration ID is attached to the mixer configurations having compatibility between their scene data which is a data set of parameters for use in operation of the audio signal processing unit. When a mixer configuration is edited, the same configuration ID as that of the mixer configuration before editing is attached to the mixer configuration after editing. Under the condition that there is a match between the configuration ID of read source and the configuration ID of write destination, the scene data accompanying each mixer configuration is written from the mixer configuration of read source to the mixer configuration of write destination.
