    Abstract: A system and method to adjust power levels between interconnected loudspeaker assemblies is described herein, the system comprising: a primary loudspeaker assembly, and at least one secondary loudspeaker assembly interconnected with the primary loudspeaker assembly and adapted to receive an audio signal from the primary loudspeaker assembly; an interconnection verification circuit located in the primary loudspeaker assembly; and a controller located in the primary loudspeaker assembly adapted to receive the status signal from the interconnection verification circuit, wherein the controller comprises—at least one processor communicatively coupled to the interconnection verification circuit; a memory operatively connected to the at least one processor, wherein the memory stores computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to execute a method that comprises: generating an interconnection test signal by the interconnection verification circuit, wherein the interconnection test signal determines if the primary loudspeaker assembly is properly connected to the at least one secondary loudspeaker assembly; generating a connected status signal if the interconnection test signal determines that the primary loudspeaker assembly is properly connected to the at least one secondary loudspeaker assembly; receiving the connected status signal by the controller located in the primary loudspeaker assembly; and generating a first set of command signals by the controller to split power between the primary loudspeaker assembly and the at least one secondary loudspeaker assembly.

    Abstract: A magnet retaining pocket defined by a bore having a first bore portion and a second bore portion, wherein the first bore portion comprises a resilient tongue, and wherein the second bore portion contains an opening and a second attachment member recessed from the openings. The magnet is retained by the magnet retaining pocket by being inserted into the first bore portion to deflect the tongue and slid into the second bore portion, such that the first attachment member of the magnet engages the second attachment member of the second bore portion, until the magnet is exposed through the opening.

    Abstract: A battery-operated motorized roller shade that can be charged through an installation bracket. The roller shade comprises a roller tube, a motor and at least one battery disposed within the roller tube, and a motor head disposed at a terminal end of the roller tube having a motor head interface. The installation bracket comprises an installation bracket interface and an exterior wall comprising an installation bracket connector adapted to removably connect to and electrically interface with a power adapter. The motor head is adapted to removably attach to the installation bracket wherein the installation bracket provides electrical power to the at least one battery within the roller tube when the installation bracket is connected to the power adapter.

    Abstract: An electronics box for insertion into a wall box includes a housing having walls that define an inner volume of the housing. A wall includes an edge having part disposed along an outer surface of that wall, and a tab disposed within the inner volume at a first predetermined distance from the outer surface of the wall and extending along a direction parallel to the outer surface of the wall past the edge. Another wall includes an edge having a part along an outer surface of that wall, and an opening completely surrounded by the wall at a second predetermined distance from that edge. Upon the parts of the edges of the walls being brought in contact, the tab is inserted into the opening, the tab and the opening being dimensioned such that the tab securely fits into the opening and secures the walls together.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and modes for commissioning of a building control system comprising at least one controller and a plurality of electronic devices installed in a building and comprising at least one light source adapted to illuminate light of a plurality of colors. The at least one controller is adapted to iteratively divide a selected number of the plurality of electronic devices into groups of electronic devices and command each group of electronic devices to illuminate a different color, receive an identification of an illuminated color of an electronic device to be commissioned, and select electronic devices belonging to a group commanded to illuminate a color that matches the identified illuminated color until the electronic device to be commissioned is identified.

    Abstract: An apparatus cools electronic circuitry. A housing has surfaces configured to enclose the electronic circuitry and are mountable inside a cavity in a back box. At least one of the surfaces has a vent holes therein facing an exhaust opening in the back box when the housing is mounted inside the cavity. Another surface has a fan hole that faces an intake opening in the back box when the housing is mounted inside the cavity. A cooling fan is mounted onto the another surface and disposed over the fan hole. The cooling fan is configured to draw cooling air through the intake opening in the back box and the fan hole into the housing and over the electronic circuitry. The cooling air then exits the housing through the vent holes and thereafter exits the back box through the exhaust opening.

    Abstract: A bracket mounts a device to any of plural surfaces at any of a plural orientations. A platform part has a mounting surface to support the device. An end part is located at one end of the platform part. The end part has openings to receive threaded screws by which the end part is fastened to a first external surface when in a first orientation. The mounting surface has openings to receive threaded screws by which the platform part is alternatively fastened to a second external surface when in a second orientation. A guide slot in the mounting surface has an open end that faces away from the end part. The guide slot, when the bracket is in the second orientation, receives through the open end a knob secured to the device, guides the knob as the device is moved, and retains the knob to hold the device.
