Abstract: A system and method for detection of a fault in a component of an Alternate Current Motor (ACM) based on current samples of the ACM. The system includes a current sensor for sampling a current of the ACM. The sampling is performed a plurality of times within a half-wave form of an Alternate Current (AC) of the ACM and over several cycles of half-waves. The system also includes a computing device for receiving the plurality of current samples. The computing device is configured to analyze a plurality of current samples of the AC of the ACM, the plurality of current samples taken for at least several periods of half-waves of the AC, determine, based on the analysis of the plurality of current samples, whether the ACM is a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or a non-VFD, and report that fault detection cannot be made if the ACM is a VFD.

Abstract: A heat measurement apparatus and method for a non-invasive measurement of heat generation are provided. The method include determining a flow value of a flowing substance within a system based on a system power usage; and determining a heat energy value of a system based on a temperature difference of a first temperature of the flowing substance at an inlet of the system from a second temperature of the flowing substance at an outlet of the system and the flow value of the system.

Abstract: A system and method for measuring powerline temperature based on self-powered power sensors (SPPS), including: retrieving a powerline current reading and an SPPS temperature reading from an SPPS; determining a powerline temperature based on an isothermal curve of the powerline current reading and the SPPS temperature reading; and generating an alert when the powerline temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a patient care and communication system which utilizes a central processing system and a plurality of remote stations electrically connected to the central processing system to facilitate visual and data communications. Each remote station includes telephone circuitry which is connected to a private branch exchange for telephone communications between stations. In addition, the private branch exchange is connected to a telephone exchange and a plurality of telephones for facilitating telephone communication therebetween. The central processing system facilitates the visual and data communications between the plurality of remote stations, and includes a system for determining which of the plurality of remote stations are transmitting the visual and data communications and which of the plurality of remote stations are to receive the visual and data communications.

Abstract: An audio data recording system for recording, transmitting, storing and manipulating analog audio data. The audio data recording system providing for connection to a telephone and a telephone earpiece, and further to a computer via, for instance, a USB connection for recording analog audio data, converting the analog audio data to digital audio data and transmitting the digital audio data to the computer for storage and/or further manipulation. The audio data recording system further presenting the stored files in the form of a list and providing a user with the option to append comments to the files and various locations within the files.
