The locking system is provided for controlling the unlocking of a door by an electronic key. The locking system has a first pack configured to be received within a first recessed area of the door, the first pack having an actuator configured and adapted to move a bolt slidingly housed in the lock pack; a second pack configured to be received within a second recessed area of the door; a reader interface adapted to receive an input from the electronic key and a controller adapted to receive the input from the reader interface, authenticate the input, and control the actuator based on the authentication.

The method can include the steps of: providing a local coordinator device having at least a first peripheral association data pertaining to the at least one peripheral device; seamlessly receiving the mobile credential from the at least one mobile device with the local coordinator device; validating the received mobile device credential; and subsequently to said validating, establishing the remote control association between the at least one mobile device and the at least one peripheral device using the first peripheral association data.

Method, system, and computer program product for establishing a temporary remote control association between a mobile device and a peripheral device

A connector for providing semi-permanent connection between a bus bar and a connector contact is formed by ovelapping a bus bar tab with at least one contact tail of the connector contact and gripping the overlapped bus bar tab and the contact tail with a spring clip. In this manner, the spring clip produces the pressure required to establish adequate contact between the bus bar tab and contact tail. According to another feature, the junction including the bus bar tab, the contact tail and the spring clip are isolated by covering them with an electrically insulating sleeve, this sleeve also serving to retain the spring clip in position.

A press-fit bus-bar for distributing power along a backplane or a printed circuit board includes a number of flat bus bar conductors fabricated from an electrically conductive material. Each bus bar conductor is separated from adjacent bus bar conductors by layers of an insulating material. A number of electrically conductive press-fit tails protrude from one edge of each bus bar conductor. When the laminated bus bar conductors and insulating material layers are placed in a housing which is then filled with a hardened epoxy resin, the press-fit tails protrude from the surface of that epoxy resin. These protruding tails can be press-fit in a backplane(s) or printed circuit board(s) for the purpose of supplying these backplane(s) or printed circuit board(s) with electric power.

A device for connecting an electrical contact to a flat bus bar conductor formed with a tab comprises a spring sleeve and a tubular shroud. The sleeve receives both the tab and the electrical contact in order to interconnect these tab and contact. The shroud has a first section in which the sleeve fits and a second section through which the tab is inserted in the sleeve, this second section being slotted to define a seat for the bus bar conductor. The electrical contact comprises a first pair of mutually spaced apart flat contact members, and a second pair of flat contact tails connected to the contact members and spaced apart from each other for insertion in the sleeve with the tab between them. An electrical connector comprises an electrically insulating housing formed with a cavity with front and rear openings, and the electrical contact having its contact members inserted in the cavity through the rear opening to form a conductor-receiving receptacle accessible through the front opening. Finally, a bus bar system comprises a backplane PCB comprising a rear face, at least one generally flat bus bar conductor running behind the backplane PCB and including an edge adjacent to the rear face of the backplane PCB and integral tabs distributed along this edge, and at least one opening cut into the backplane PCB for access and connection to at least one tab through the above described device and contact.
