A control system for a passenger conveyor includes a ready-to-operate mode, a standby speed and a nominal speed. A method to operate the passenger conveyor includes the steps of: transitioning the conveyor from ready-to-operate mode to nominal speed using a frequency converter; switching from frequency converter to line power at nominal speed; switching back to frequency converter if no passengers are present and transitioning from nominal to standby speed; and transitioning from standby speed to ready-to-operate mode if a predetermined amount of time passes without a passenger entering the conveyor.

A method of controlling the drive of conveyor installation which includes a drive motor (26) and a frequency converter (42) whose output is adjustable, between a load operation and an idle mode, in the form of an escalator (10) or a moving sidewalk, where: in the load operation mode drive motor (26) is supplied with a line voltage at an essentially constant line frequency (fNetz), and in the idle mode with an output voltage of the frequency converter (42); the line voltage and the frequency converter's output voltage are compared with respect to frequency and phase position; the frequency converter (42) is set for an output frequency which has a predetermined spacing (&Dgr;fup, &Dgr;fdown) from the line frequency (fNetz); a demand to switch modes is signalled by a conveyance signal generator (48); and at the point in time (t1, t4), after a demand to switch modes has been signalled, when the output frequency of the converter (42) has reached the predetermined frequency spacing (&Dgr;fup, &Dgr;fdown) from the line frequency (fNetz), and a predetermined phase spacing has been achieved between the frequency converter's output voltage and the line frequency (fNetz), a switch-over signal (58) is emitted to switch the drive motor (26) between the frequency converter supply and the line supply.

A comparator is disclosed for examining, inspecting and/or calibrating component parts. The comparator includes a frame, a component supporting system releasably attached to the frame for supporting a component part to be inspected and/or calibrated, a video imaging system attached to the frame for generating a video image of the component part on a video display, a graphic line image generator for superimposing on a video display graphic images arranged to display and represent predetermined dimensional ranges related to the component part, whereby the component part may be compared to the predetermined images of the graphic images.

The present invention relates to a machine actuating system, which includes a hand actuator system which responds to the presence of at least one operator body part at a predetermined location by generating control signal and an actuator control system to actuate the machine in response to the control signal. Generally, the actuating system includes a pair of ergonomic support members, where one support member is configured and dimensioned for interactive association with the operator's left hand and the other support member is configured and dimensioned for interactive association with the operator's right hand, and a sensing system associated with each support member for sensing the presence of the operator's hands and generating the control signal.
