Abstract:
Approaches for managing and maintaining a state of charge of an energy storage device by adjusting (biasing) responses to electrical grid operator commands to perform ancillary services are disclosed. In embodiments, methods and systems regulate a set point regulation in an energy system. In an embodiment, a method determines when the set point needs to be changed, calculates a new set point, and moves the output of the system from an old set point to the new set point at a defined ramp rate. The method then incorporates, as part of a set point algorithm, the capability to restore the energy storage device to a desirable state of charge (SOC). Embodiments implement Dynamic Bias, SOC and Signal Bias Range Maintaining, Operational Limits, and Fixed Signal Bias algorithms and perform Intelligent Algorithm Selection to manage and maintain the SOC of an energy storage device by biasing responses to grid operator commands.
Abstract:
A drug delivery device comprising; a housing; a cylindrical member configured to be rotatably supported inside the housing, wherein the outer surface of the cylindrical member is provided with a track comprising a sequence of encoded images; and a sensor directed at the track of the cylindrical member and configured to detect features of the encoded images.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating a position encoder system (1), wherein an actuating element (3) is adjustable via a servo drive (2), which comprises a rotary electronically commutated motor, and wherein an electric rotor position of a rotor of the servo drive (2) can be assigned to a plurality of positions of the actuating element (3), said method comprising the following steps: - implementing position regulation on the basis of a detected position indication (S) relating to a position of the actuating element (3), wherein a position manipulated variable (L) is generated and a phasor is assigned to said position manipulated variable for driving the servo drive (3); - conducting a plausibility check on or correcting the position indication by the phasor assigned to the generated position manipulated variable (L).

Abstract:
An embodiment of the invention extends to an interface for converting rotational motion to electrical signals comprising a mechanical actuator which is rotationally moveable in a first direction and in a second direction, and a first and a second electrical component connected to the actuator and arranged so that rotation of the actuator in the first direction causes changes in electrical properties of the first electrical component and rotation of the actuator in the second direction causes changes in electrical properties of the second electrical component. The first and the second electrical components are connected to one or more electrical circuits so that rotation of the actuator in the first and the second directions causes changes in the one or more electrical circuits.
