METHODS, APPARATUSES, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR MULTI-POINT SHUNT CALIBRATION
Embodiments of the present disclosure include methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer program product for enabling multi-point shunt calibration of a sensor device. Multi-point shunt calibration provides at least a first, second, and third simulated calibration output, each simulated calibration output corresponding to an actual reading value and an expected reading value. The simulated calibration outputs are associated with a predefined output sequence, where each simulated calibration output is separated from an adjacent simulated calibration output by an output step size. Some embodiments are configured for automatically outputting each simulated calibration output for a particular period of time before outputting an adjacent simulated calibration output in the predefined output sequence. The various simulated calibration outputs, actual reading values, and/or expected values may be used in determining calibrated reading values for the sensor device.
METHOD FOR DETECTING A CONFLICT
The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for detecting a conflict between a local control means and a distantly disposed remote control means. The method comprises a method step of receiving a first signal from the local control means. The method comprises a further method step of receiving a second signal from the remote control means. The method comprises a further method step of checking whether a conflict is present based on the first and the second signal. If a conflict was detected during the check, the method comprises a method step of providing conflict information, wherein the conflict information comprises information that a conflict is present.
