A community dock safety system includes a plurality of voltage detectors is distributed about the community dock. Each voltage detector includes a voltage detector circuit that detects an electric voltage between a ground and at least one of the dock frame or the water. A master unit is responsive to each voltage detector status signal and controls a switch that disconnects the central power source from the electrical wire associated with each pedestal when the voltage detector status signal from at least one of the plurality of voltage detectors indicates that an electrical shock hazard has been detected. The master unit also includes a central wireless communication unit that communicates data received from the plurality of voltage detectors to a remote unit.

In a magnetic field source detecting apparatus, a magnetic sensor unit detects an intensity and a direction of a measurement target magnetic field on or over a surface of a test target object; and a position estimating unit estimates a position in a depth direction of a magnetic field source that exists at an unspecified position inside a test target object on the basis of the intensities and the directions of the measurement target magnetic field detected by the magnetic sensor at at least two 2-dimensional positions of the surface.

The invention relates to a method for diagnosing a fieldbus type network. The method comprises the steps of measuring, using a signal measuring device such as an oscilloscope, a bus signal of the fieldbus type network, providing the measured bus signal to a computer system, and generating, by the computer system, a diagnosis. The diagnosis is performed by executing a step of comparing, by the computer system, the measured bus signal with signals in a database of bus signals and corresponding diagnoses; and/or feeding, by the computer system, the measured bus signal to a trained statistical model trained to diagnose the fieldbus type network; as well as a step of outputting the diagnosis based on the output of the comparison and/or the output of the statistical model.
