One embodiment of the invention includes a method for managing a system. The method includes providing a plurality of system values and generating an event signal if one of the plurality of system values is logically related to a compare value. At least two of the plurality of system values are captured at a time that is related to the event signal. Other systems and methods are also disclosed.

Control systems and methods associated therewith

One embodiment of the invention provides a detection system. The detection system includes an analog to digital converter that converts one or more analog vibration signals into one or more digital samples, a filter that analyzes at least a portion of the one or more digital samples and identifies energy values across a range of frequencies, a frequency selector that selects a subset of the frequencies for analysis according to one or more operational characteristics, and an analyzer that analyzes the subset of frequencies along with threshold values to identify one or more results.

Detection systems and methods

A control module () includes a first signal processing unit () that is coupled to a second signal processing unit () by a control bus (), an address bus () and a data bus (). The control module conveys seed value addresses () and expected result addresses () over the address bus, seed values () and verification set output values () over the data bus, and compares each verification set output value to an expected result (), thereby allowing the control module to determine whether the first signal processing unit, the control bus, the address bus, and the data bus are collectively functioning correctly. By properly selecting the seed value addresses, expected result addresses, seed values, and expected results (and correspondingly, verification set output values), proper operation of each line of the address bus and control bus may be individually verified.
