    摘要: Apparatus of facilitating circuit card replacement without down time, comprising a redundancy connector assembly having a first connector and a second connector, a redundant bus, and a first circuit card coupled to the first connector of the redundancy connector assembly. The first circuit card has a logic circuit and a switch operable to selectively couple and decouple the logic circuit to one of the first connector and the redundant bus. A second circuit card also has a logic circuit and a switch operable to selectively couple and decouple the logic circuit to the redundant bus. A bypass cable is used to couple the second connector of the redundancy connector assembly to the second circuit card during replacement of the first circuit card and routing signals destined for the first circuit card to the second circuit card.

    摘要: A system and method for fail-safe transmission of safety messages through communication channels containing non-safety-certified equipment is disclosed herein. Consistent with the disclosed method, digital signatures and/or encryption are used to authenticate both the origin and content of the safety messages. A watchdog timer ensures transition to a safe state if authenticated messages are not received periodically. In a particular implementation, the disclosed method includes generating a safety message indicating the state of a sensor. A digital signature is then generated to sign this safety message. The method further includes communicating the safety message and the digital signature to an actuator. Upon receipt, the safety message is authenticated using the digital signature. A watchdog timer ensures transition to a safe state if authenticated messages are not received periodically.

    摘要: A power meter having fault tolerance enhances the monitoring of electrical power by increasing the reliability of data output by the power meter having fault tolerance. The power meter having fault tolerance may enhance the monitoring process by transitioning from a faulty power monitoring device to a non-faulty power monitoring device without losing or corrupting power management data.
