摘要: A system for controlling a user's access to an electrical device (314). The system includes an interchangeable unit (200) operable for wireless communication with a mobile communications device (10), a power control unit (300) having a communications interface (302), and an external network processor configured to receive a verification request to verify that a user of the mobile communications device is authorized to access the interchangeable unit. The external network processor is configured to send to the mobile communications device an authorization confirmation after the user's access to the interchangeable unit is verified as being authorized.

摘要: A device and method for controlling a host apparatus (300) through a wireless link with a personal controller (10). The device includes a wireless communications module (202) configured to communicate with personal controller (10) via a peer-to-peer communications standard. The device connects to host apparatus (300) via a plug and receptacle interface (206) which includes power and signal pins. The device simulates an actuation signal using a reed relay (216) to cause host apparatus (300) to perform a function.
