A fault circuit indicator (FCI) detection system for electrical equipment disposed in an enclosure or vault having an above-ground vent pipe exhaust outlet comprises one or more sensors disposed in the enclosure or vault to sense a condition of at least one unit of the electrical equipment. A sensored analytics unit (SAU) is coupled to the sensors to receive sensor data and analyze the sensor data, the SAU generating a corresponding analyzed data signal that provides information related to a condition of the at least one unit of electrical equipment. A transceiver is disposed inside at least a portion of the vent pipe to receive the analyzed data signal, wherein the transceiver is configured to communicate the analyzed data signal. A visual indicator is disposed on or within the vent pipe comprising one or more visual indicators, such as LEDs, driven by a driving circuit board to provide a visual signal corresponding to the condition of the at least one unit of electrical equipment.

Fault circuit indicator apparatus, system, and method

A device to measure the voltage at a test point, also referred to as a test point voltage sensor, comprises a housing formed from a first material and a second material, wherein the first material comprises an insulating material and the second material comprises a conductive or semiconductive material. The housing includes an opening configured to cover a test point of a cable accessory. The device further includes a pressure pad, disposed in the housing, having a conductive mating surface configured to contact a test point of the basic insulation plug or end plug. The device further includes a low side capacitor embedded in the housing and electrically coupled to the conductive mating surface. The device further includes a signal wire electrically coupled to the low side capacitor.

Test point voltage sensor for high voltage separable connectors

An apparatus and method is disclosed for providing an extensible information handling system (IHS) bus implemented on predetermined channels of a digital video interface. IHS video signal information is multiplexed with IHS bus information by a host multiplexer for transmission across a digital video connector. The multiplexed IHS video signal and IHS bus information is received by a display multiplexer, where it is demultiplexed. Demultiplexed IHS video signal information is received by a video interface receiver, where it is used to generate an image on a digital display. Demultiplexed IHS bus information is received by a host bus interface transmitter/receiver, where it is used to support peripheral devices attached to the digital display.

System and method for providing PCIE over displayport

A display provides power to an information handling system through a display cable. The display cable includes a power wire and an auxiliary channel. The display and information handling system communicate through the auxiliary channel to coordinate power transfer from the display to the information handling system, such as in the form of a trickle charge to a battery integrated in the information handling system.

System and method for powering an information handling system through a display cable

A system for augmenting displayed content with embedded invisible information such as visual or audio information, or a network link to the augmented information. The system includes a display module, first and second backlight modules, and a controller. The first and second backlight modules selectively provide visible light and invisible light, such as infrared light, to the display module. The controller provides first and second frames of content, alternating in a time sequential manner, to the display module with the first frames of content backlit by the first backlight module and the second frames of content backlit by only the second backlight module. The second frames of content provide invisible information embedded with the first frames of content and can be detected an infrared camera and used to display or provide augmented information.

Augmented information display

A system for human interaction based upon intention detection. The system includes a sensor for providing information relating to a posture of a person detected by the sensor, a processor, and a display device. The processor is configured to receive the information from the sensor and process the received information in order to determine if an event occurred. This processing includes determining whether the posture of the person indicates a particular intention, such as attempting to take a photo. If the event occurred, the processor is configured to provide an interaction with the person via the display device such as displaying a message or the address of a web site.

Human interaction system based upon real-time intention detection

A method of aiding viewing position for autostereoscopic displays having a suggested viewing zone or optimal viewing position. The method detects a position of a viewer using a detection sensor associated with the display and determines if the viewer is within the suggested viewing zone. If the viewer is not within the suggested viewing zone, the method provides feedback to the viewer, such as visual cues on the display, indicating how the viewer should move in order to be within the suggested viewing zone. The method can continuously provide the feedback in order to indicate how the viewer is moving with respect to the suggested viewing zone and when the viewer has moved into the suggested viewing zone.

Method and apparatus of aiding viewing position adjustment with autostereoscopic displays

A method for powering on an information handling system (IHS) includes receiving a power request signal from a video display in communication with the IHS. The methods further includes determining that the power request signal is a response to a power-on signal for the video display, and powering on the IHS by sending the power-on signal to a power controller of the IHS.

System and method for providing PCIe over displayport

In a video matrix display interface, an interface includes one or more subsystems to receive information from a plurality of display devices, compile the information from the plurality of display devices, report the compiled information to a graphics processing device, generate a video image using the compiled information, the image to be viewable across the plurality of display devices, splice the video image into portions and transmit the video image portions to the plurality of display devices, thereby creating a continuous image across the plurality of display devices.

Video matrix display interface

A mode of operation of an information handling system is determined based upon configuration information received at a video/graphics port of the information handling system. In response to determining the mode of operation is a first mode of operation, information is provided from the first video/graphics port that represents only a portion of a video image. In response to determining the mode of operation is a second mode of operation, information is provided from the first video/graphics port that represents all of the video image.

Video/graphics port adapter and method thereof

A variable speed data processor includes a clock generator generating a plurality of clocks at different clock rates. Clock select circuitry synchronously selects one of the clocks as an output clock signal to data processing circuitry, based on a data activity indication. Activity logic generates the data activity indication based at least in part on the existence of data processing activity targeted to the data processing circuitry. When the data processing circuitry experiences bursty data processing activity, the clock rate can shift rapidly between the multiple clock rates, conserving power without substantially diminishing the availability of the data processing circuitry.
