A system and apparatus for use in energy conversion. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises at least one power converter for producing power at a first level while receiving an indicium of proper operation and, upon not receiving the indicium of proper operation, producing power at a second level, where the second level is less than the first level.

Distributed inverter and intelligent gateway

A system and apparatus for use in energy conversion. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a gateway remotely located from an inverter and having (i) a first terminal for coupling to AC wiring upon which the inverter couples AC power, wherein the AC power is generated by the inverter from DC power, and wherein the gateway obtains data pertaining to operation of the inverter via the first terminal, and (ii) a second terminal for coupling information related to the data to an external monitor, remotely located with respect to the gateway, via a communications network.

A method and a system are disclosed that enable an address at the edge router to be used to establish a multi-pipe virtual private network (MVPN) connecting controllers to multiple web enabled end user devices (EUDs) inside a security protected local area network (LAN). The EUDs connect to a central server (CS) outside the LAN during configuration establishing registration and identity (ID) for each EUD. Once the EUDs establish connection from inside the LAN, the CS is enabled to communicate with the EUDs using the address and ID provided during registration. The CS then acts as a facilitator establishing secure VPN connection between controllers in the cloud and the EUDs inside the LAN. CS further acts as a pass through for those LANs that do not allow direct connections to controllers outside the LAN. The CS continues to monitor the health of the overall system once connectivity is established.

Control of security application in a LAN from outside the LAN

A system and apparatus for generating power. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a power module for coupling to a DC power source via a DC bus, wherein the power module (i) converts a first power from the DC power source to a second power, and (ii) comprises a maximum power point tracking module unit for dynamically adjusting a load voltage of the DC power source; an AC bus; and a controller, physically separate from the power module and coupled to the power module via the AC bus, for operatively controlling the power module.

The system provides for vertical or horizontal centering, or both, without the use of a memory frame buffer, of raster image data whose start time and duration cannot be controlled. The centering is accomplished by controlling the frame start time and line start time of the overall display of the raster imaging surface. This is accomplished in the case of vertical centering by detecting the time of the beginning of the first or last line, or both, of the total lines of the raster image data to be displayed an controlling the start time of a subsequent one of the frames based on that detected time. Horizontal centering is carried out by detecting the time of the beginning of the first or last column, or both, of the columns in one or more of the lines of the raster image data and controlling the start time of subsequent ones of the lines based on that detected time.

Disclosed is a set of functional components (tiles), consisting in part of subgate elements, which, by their design, facilitate the creation of dense integrated circuits, without forfeiting the capability of modifying the functionality of individual tiles by late mask programming techniques. Overall densities approaching those obtained with hand-crafted, custom designs can be obtained in part because such components are designed to be tiled throughout a storage logic array, permitting the creation of orthogonal logic gates as well as individual gates (and more complex functions) the functionality of which is distributed horizontally, vertically and even in a zigzag fashion. Moreover, the transition time from prototype to high volume manufacturing is reduced significantly due to the ease with which even complex functions can be repaired and enhanced.
