摘要： An improved HVAC air handler and control system adapted for measuring and monitoring operating characteristics, the leakage of supply and return ducts to which it is connected, the infiltration leakage of the building it serves, the blockage of air return paths and the watts drawn and air flow generated by its blower. Leakages are measured by blocking outlets of all supply ducts or all return ducts, opening one side of the air handler to outdoor air, running the air handler blower, and measuring the air flow. Airflow may be measured by opening or closing orifices mounted in plenums attached to the air hander or built into the air handler cabinet, or by varying the speed of the blower motor, in connection with an integrated manometer. Thermostat firmware controls all functions.

摘要： Disclosed are a method and apparatus for a storage system comprising at least one mobile random access storage device capable of storing first and second data on at least one docking station. The docking station is associated with an address wherein the address is identifiable by at least one host computer. A first and second sub-address are associated with the docking station wherein the first and second sub-addresses are identifiable by the host computer. The first sub-address corresponds to a first virtual device adapted for storing the first data on a first virtual media. The second sub-address corresponds to a second virtual device adapted for storing the second data on a second virtual media wherein the second virtual media is different from the first virtual media. The docking station is adapted to be responsive to the host computer as available for storing the first data at the first sub-address and the second data at the second sub-address when the docking station is operatively linked with the mobile random access storage device.

摘要： Disclosed is a method and apparatus relating generally to erasure techniques for emulating a streamed data format for non tape media capable of being used with a data storage arrangement to generate replenished user data space. The data storage arrangement comprises a host computer and a storage system in communication with the host computer, the storage system comprising at least one random access storage medium. The random access storage medium is capable of receiving data by streaming protocol and storing the data emulated in a contiguous format. The data comprises at least one data file which further comprise a plurality of records wherein each of the records comprise user data and meta data. A deletion algorithm is adapted to issue at least one deletion command capable of deleting at least one portion of the data stored on the medium up to at least a last segment of the data to create replenished storage space. The replenished storage space is capable for storage of new data in an order following the last segment of data upon receiving the new data in the streaming protocol by the storage medium.

摘要： Disclosed is a method and apparatus for a variable media tape based storage system for storing, retrieving, and communicating data. The system includes at least one media element having a compatible relationship with one of a plurality of drives for storing and receiving data. The at least one media element configured to operate with the at least one drive as a functional pair is considered a loaded drive. The storage system also includes switch and mapping system, which in one embodiment could be an interface bridge processor, operatively linked to each of the plurality of drives. Finally, the storage system adapted to alter at least one received and accepted tape library command from positioning a target storage tape article for use with a target tape drive to selecting one of the loaded drives via the interface bridge processor. The interface bridge processor can be adapted to receive data in a streaming protocol to be saved on the target storage tape article by the target storage drive and convert the streaming protocol to a different protocol to save the data on the physically selected loaded drive.
