    Abstract: A signal transmission method for lightweight remote control communication protocol is provided. According to the method, a signal-controlled-end transceiver executes a communication transmission process according to a communication protocol to receive a communication signal. The communication transmission process includes determining whether the payload column of the communication signal is encrypted and determining whether the communication signal is a single-direction or a dual-direction communication signal. Besides, the communication signal further includes a control data and an information data. In this way, when a controlled device receives the communication signal, the control element of the controlled device controls the controlled device according to the control data and the information data.

  • Patent number: 8120656
    Abstract: This invention is to provide an assembly module comprising a board, a frame disposed on a surface of the board, and a circuit board disposed on another surface of the board, wherein the circuit board includes a power line and an image transmission line for directly connecting to a camera power line and a video cable of a surveillance camera respectively. A hollow padding is added into a wire passing hole disposed in the board, and a size of the hollow padding may be adjusted according to the width of a wire of the surveillance camera, which passes through the hollow padding. Therefore, problems such as needing to make enough space in a wall or a ceiling for receiving a video transmitter, requiring an additional device for connecting to power supply, and having gaps being left between the wire and the wire passing hole may be resolved simultaneously.

  • Publication number: 20110158108
    Abstract: An Ethernet physical layer test system and method, wherein a signal pattern generator is utilized to generate repeatedly a signal pattern frame required by the test items of the Ethernet physical layer according to a transmission procedure of a medium access controller; meanwhile, the signal pattern generator generates a control signal for switching a multiplexer, so as to control the transmission of a signal pattern frame. The Ethernet physical layer receives the signal pattern frame and outputs a test packet to a measurement instrument via a twisted-pair, for testing and analyzing quality of signals output by the Ethernet physical layer. Through the application of this Ethernet physical layer test system and method, the time required for testing the Ethernet physical layer can be effectively reduced, thus simplifying the complexity of an algorithm in testing the Ethernet physical layer.

  • Publication number: 20080042638
    Abstract: A connector with AC/DC test LEDs is formed of a pair of different colored LEDs connected in parallel to each other in a test and alarm circuit which is connected to a power source. One LED is forward-biased, while the other reverse-biased. If the power source to which the connector is connected is AC, both LEDs are turned on. If that power source is DC and the circuit is connected with correct polarity, only the forward-biased LED is turned on. If that power source is DC and the polarity is reverse-connected, only the reverse-biased LED is turned on. With this scheme, hazardous accidents and electrical damage can be prevented.
