Antimicrobial system including a luminaire configured to emit a disinfection light in an ultraviolet band for disinfecting a vicinity of a target pathogen. A switching device that includes a primary relay pack. A control station, an arming switch, a room sensor, and a security challenge device. The security challenge device has a communication interface, an operator interface to receive a security challenge input from an operator, a processor, and security challenge device programming in a memory. Execution of the security challenge device programming by processor configures the security challenge device to perform the following functions. Receive the security challenge input from the operator via the operator interface. In response to receiving the security challenge input, generate a security challenge response signal. Send, via the communication interface, the security challenge response signal to enable the primary relay pack to control power to the luminaire to emit the disinfection light.

Antimicrobial system with distributed user authenticated disinfection controls and authenticated safe lockout protocol

A wall-mounted wireless battery charger for a wireless remote lighting controller includes: a wall plate configured to removably retain the wireless remote lighting controller; and an inductive charging transmitter circuit coupled to the wall plate, the inductive charging transmitter circuit being configured to wirelessly interface with an inductive charging receiver circuit of the wireless remote lighting controller when the wireless remote lighting controller is retained by the wall plate. The inductive charging receiver circuit is configured to wirelessly receive power from the inductive charging transmitter circuit and generate a direct current (DC) voltage to charge a battery of the wireless remote lighting controller.

An example method for a radio frequency (RF) communication system, such as a lighting system, includes receiving, at a non-connected RF node via an extended star wireless network, a gateway heartbeat message that a gateway RF node transmits. The method further includes, in response to receiving the gateway heartbeat message from the gateway RF node, transmitting, via the extended star wireless network, a non-connected registration message to the gateway RF node. The method additionally includes in response to receiving a gateway acknowledgement message from the gateway RF node, configuring the non-connected RF node to act as a respective connected RF node.

Modular component for a collector device

A method of monitoring a capacitor bank comprising a plurality of capacitor strings connected in parallel, each capacitor string comprising a plurality of capacitors connected in series is provided. The method includes energizing the capacitor bank. The method includes determining dissipation factors of each of the plurality of the capacitor strings. The method further includes comparing each of the determined dissipation factors with an expected dissipation factor and estimating a health state of the plurality of the capacitor strings based, at least in part, on the comparison of the determined and expected dissipation factors.

Methods and systems for monitoring capacitor banks

Method and system for emission control of a compression ignition locomotive engine. The method includes measuring an actual power level of the engine, comparing a desired power level with the actual power level of the engine; implementing a combustion strategy based on the comparing of the desired and the actual power levels; and implementing an emission strategy based on the combustion strategy. The emission strategy is intended to attain a predetermined emission level in the exhaust from the engine.
