A process for modifying application logic includes establishing a communication connection between the application logic or passenger devices aboard a moving vessel, and control logic aboard the moving vessel. The control logic monitors factors affecting latency of communications to or from the application logic to a network external to the vessel. Features of the application logic are modified to change between free to use and a payment model for use, according to the factors affecting latency. The feature modifications made only to particular application logic of a group of associated application logic on multiple passenger devices.

A memory module includes a volatile memory, a non-volatile memory, and a memory controller adapted to present to a host system external to the memory module an address space that includes an address space of the volatile memory and excludes all addresses of the non-volatile memory capacity. The module includes logic to copy the contents of the volatile memory to memory locations of the nonvolatile memory capacity reserved for backup of the volatile memory, using power from a backup power interface, when suitable power from the host system is unavailable, wherein the memory controller reserves for backup of the volatile memory an amount of nonvolatile memory storage capacity that is at least twice a memory storage capacity of the volatile memory.

A memory subsystem includes a volatile memory, a nonvolatile memory, and a controller including logic to interface the volatile memory to an external system. The volatile memory is addressable for reading and writing by the external system. The memory subsystem includes a power controller with logic to detect when power from the external system to at least one of the volatile and nonvolatile memories and to the controller fails. When external system power fails, backup power is provided to at least one of the volatile and nonvolatile memories and to the controller for long enough to enable the controller to back up data from the volatile memory to the nonvolatile memory.

A circuit breaker monitors a total present electric current consumption value for electric consumers served by the service panel and not served by the circuit breaker, compares the present electric current consumption value with a preset maximum current capacity limit, and sets an electric charging current drawn from the service panel to a value less than a difference between the maximum current capacity limit and a sum of the total present electric current consumption value and a preset current consumption value for an electric consumer that is presently not drawing current.

A device includes a backup power supply configured to provide power to an external system upon loss of primary system power, the backup power provided by at least one capacitor; logic to create, while the capacitor is available as the backup power supply to the external system, a transient elevation of the capacitor's stored potential above a upper predetermined operating potential of the capacitor; logic to obtain measurements of the capacitor's output voltage during the transient elevation of the capacitor's stored potential; and logic to determine a capacitance of the capacitor from the measurements; the device comprising multiple capacitors in series; logic to discharge each capacitor in series individually from the others; and logic to monitor for overcharging of any of the capacitors in series, and, during charging of the capacitors in series, to operate the discharge logic for any capacitor in the series that is in danger of overcharging.
摘要:
A method of controlling an electro-actuated clutch in an internal combustion engine, the clutch including a clutch mechanism, an electric motor for actuating the clutch mechanism, and a mechanical transmission, which is interposed between the electric motor and the clutch mechanism. During a manufacturing phase of the system, a detachable connection is established in the mechanical transmission, wherein a first element simply rests on a second element to divide the electro-actuated clutch into a first part, arranged upstream of the detachable connection, and a second part, arranged downstream of the detachable connection. During operation, a first position signal generated by a first position sensor mechanically connected to a point of the first portion of the electro-actuated clutch is read, as is a second position signal generated by a second position sensor mechanically connected to a point of the second portion of the electro-actuated clutch. The first position signal is compared with the second position signal. A position in which the first position signal starts differing from the second position signal is recognized, and an estimate made of a closing position of the clutch mechanism coinciding with the position in which the first position signal starts differing from the second position signal.
