Abstract: A relay apparatus receives connection check mail transmitted from a plurality of terminal apparatuses connected to the relay apparatus to a monitoring apparatus when the configuration or settings of the terminal apparatuses changes. The relay apparatus attaches a relay apparatus ID that uniquely identifies the relay apparatus to the header of the connection check mail. The relay apparatus transmits the connection check mail with the relay apparatus ID attached thereto to the monitoring apparatus. When stopping the monitoring of the terminal apparatus under the control of the relay apparatus, the relay apparatus transmits to the monitoring apparatus monitoring stop instruction mail with the relay apparatus ID attached thereto.

Abstract: An operation monitoring apparatus monitors statuses of plural monitoring target apparatus connected to a network, by sending a connection confirmation mail, via a notification server located on the network, receiving the connection confirmation mail and an operation confirmation mail sent from each monitoring target apparatus, storing a scheduled transmission time of a next operation confirmation mail contained in the operation confirmation mail, as part of apparatus information of the monitoring target apparatus and judging, using the scheduled transmission time, whether the next operation confirmation mail has been received. The judgment is not made if a latest connection confirmation mail sent from the operation monitoring apparatus itself has not been received.

Abstract: The present invention provides a monitoring device configured to automatically associate devices forming a multifunctional device with support-contract information.

Abstract: In a device for processing data signals, a storing part stores an input signal and the data signals included in the input signal are extracted from the storing part and the data signals are output at a desired output speed. Then, the data signal is output based on storage information of the input signal.

Abstract: An electronic control unit includes an electronic control unit casing having an electrical connector receiving opening. A circuit board is arranged in the electronic control unit casing such that an end of the circuit board extends into the electrical connector receiving opening. A rear end of the electrical connector is positioned in the electrical connector receiving opening such that the circuit board is arranged between a top surface and a bottom surface of the electrical connector. The electrical connector has a plurality of contacts electrically connected with the circuit board. A seal groove fixes the electronic control unit casing in the electrical connector receiving opening. The seal groove includes an upper groove formed on a top surface of the electrical connector and a lower groove formed on a bottom surface of the electrical connector. The upper groove is positioned closer to the rear end than the lower groove.

Abstract: In order to provide a battery charging state arithmetic operation device which can judge a charging state of a battery currently being used easily and in a short time, there are provided battery voltage calculation means 6 with specified load for calculating a first and a second battery voltages when a battery current is at a specified load current value from a first I-V characteristic of the battery which is in a first state as a currently used state and is stored in first I-V characteristic storage means 3 and a second I-V characteristic which is in a second state where the amount of remaining energy is small and is stored in second I-V characteristic storage means 4, and SOC arithmetic operation means 7 for calculating an SOC (charging state) of the battery in the first state by using the first and the second battery voltages calculated.

Abstract: An electrical connector includes a connector housing having a contact engaging section with contacts which engage mating contacts, and a wire holder holding wires connected to the contacts. The connector cover is capable of moving between partially engaged position and fully engaged position. The partially engaged position is the position in which a rear end of the wire holder is housed in and the fully engaged position is the position in which the rear end of the wire holder projects from a rear end opening. The connector housing has a first engaging section engaging a mating connector in the partially engaged position. The connector cover has a second engaging section engaging the first engaging section and restraining disengagement of the first engaging section from the mating connector in the fully engaged position.

Abstract: A waterproof connector comprises a housing with a plurality of contact receiving cavities. Each of the contact receiving cavities has a contact connected to an electric wire. A seal member has a plurality of adjacent wire receiving through-holes through which the electric wires extend. The seal member has cylindrical areas around a circumference of each of the wire receiving through-holes. The cylindrical areas partially overlap to form a continuous integral structure. The seal member is formed from an elastomer.

Abstract: When a fault is detected by a surveillance agent mounted in a user device, fault information is reported to a maintenance center device by an electronic mail through an internet. The user device is provided with a connect confirmation unit to prepare and transmit connect confirmation mails of a plurality of patterns different in mail content, and the maintenance center device is provided with a diagnosis unit, which diagnose a mail transmission environment of the user device from the reception result of one or a plurality of connect confirmation mails received within a fixed period of time and transmits a diagnosis result to the user device by the electronic mail.
