Abstract: A control module for a remote device comprises a trainable transmitter configured to communicate a radio frequency signal configured to control the remote device via a first communication protocol. The control module further comprises a communication circuit configured to communicate with a mobile device via a second communication protocol and a user interface comprising at least one user input. The control module comprises a controller configured to communicate the programming information for the remote device with the remote server via the second communication interface and assign the programming information to the at least one user input. The controller is further configured to control the trainable transmitter to output a control signal based on the programming information in response to the at least one user input. The control signal is configured to control the remote device.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of selectively transmitting commands associated with a single channel. A trainable transceiver may include a channel, an electronic display, and a container element. The channel may be trained to control one or more functions of the remote device. The electronic display may display one or more container elements. The container element of the electronic display may include a first soft key and a second soft key. The container element may be associated with the channel. The first soft key may control a first function of the remote device. The second soft key may control a second function of the remote device.

Abstract: A time of day simulation system for an aircraft comprising: a master controller operable to: receive departure data, the departure data corresponding to a local departure time and a departure location of the aircraft. Receive arrival data, the arrival data corresponding to a local arrival time and arrival location of the aircraft. Receive time of flight data, the time of flight data corresponding to a time of flight of the aircraft. Analyze the departure data, arrival data, and time of flight data to determine a time difference between the local departure time and local arrival time, based on the analyzed data, calculate a time of day simulation. A window controller in communication with the master controller operable to control a transmission level of one or more electro-optic window assemblies. Wherein the master controller is further operable to, based on the identified time of day simulation, generate a control signal to adjust the transmittance level of the electro-optic window assemblies.

Abstract: A system and method for communicating with a barrier operator system to direct operation of a barrier. The system and method may include adaptively updating an expected time duration for an operational sequence that includes occurrence of an event relating to operation of the barrier operator system and receipt of a status message from the barrier operator system. The system may monitor and record the elapsed time for the operational sequence, and determine the expected time duration for the operational sequence based on the recorded history of elapsed times. If the status message is not received within the expected time duration after occurrence of the event, the system may transmit a status request message to the barrier operator system to obtain information relating to the status of the barrier operator system or the barrier, or both.
