摘要： A data transmission assembly includes a first connection terminal coupled to a processing unit and a second connection terminal coupled to a random access memory (RAM) resource. The data transmission assembly also includes a first electrical/optical (EO) signal converter and a second EO signal converter. The first EO signal converter is coupled to the first connection terminal and the second EO signal converter is coupled to the second connection terminal. The data transmission assembly also includes an optical signal propagation medium with a first end and a second end. The first end is attached to the first EO signal converter, and the second end is attached to the second EO signal converter. The signal propagation medium carries signals between the first connection terminal and the second connection terminal to support memory accesses performed by the processing unit to access data at memory locations within the RAM resource.

摘要： A novel method for monitoring the operation of a solar thermal system such as the healthy home system or the like. The present device includes a hardware housing with a processor device coupled to a bus and one or more memory devices. The processor device can be coupled to one or more input devices wherein the one or more input devices are coupled to at least the solar array. The input devices can be coupled to the electric panel, the space heater, the water heater, as well as other components of the healthy home. The method includes a variety of steps such as establishing connection to associated hardware in the healthy home system, running diagnostic checks to determine system health, validating acquired data, and displaying the data through text display and graphical illustrations. The method also includes updating the system information according to a schedule scheme such as a polling scheme, interrupt scheme, or others. These and possibly other steps can provide an easy and cost effective means of monitoring a healthy home's system operation.
