The present disclosure relates to a control module circuit having a circuit communication input port, a circuit communication output port, a first controllable unit that has a first controller module, and a second controllable unit having a second controller module. The first controller module has a first communication input port connected with the circuit communication input port and a first communication output port. The second controller module has a second communication input port connected with the first communication output port and a second communication output port connected with the circuit communication output port. The first and second controllable units are adapted to be identified with a permanent identity by way of a transmittable data signal receivable at the communication input port and sequentially received by the first and second controllable units.

In an embodiment, yield data representing yields of crops that have been harvested from an agricultural field and field characteristics data representing characteristics of the agricultural field is received and used to determine a plurality of management zone delineation options. Each option, of the plurality of management zone delineation options, comprises zone layout data for an option. The plurality of management zone delineation options is determined by: determining a plurality of count values for a management class count; generating, for each count value, a management delineation option by clustering the yield data from and the field characteristics data, assigning zones to clusters, and including the zones in a management zone delineation option. One or more options from the plurality of management zone delineation options are selected and used to determine one or more planting plans. A graphical representation of the options and the planting plans is displayed for a user.

The present invention provides a technology for invoking a non-periodic-execution function module from a periodic-execution control program. A control system that comprises first and second control parts (C1, C2) and a storage device that stores control programs (210, 211) for a controller. The control programs (210, 211) include a periodic-execution function module (55B) that invokes a non-periodic-execution function module (55A). The first control part (C1) reflects the value of an input variable for the periodic-execution function module (55B) in an argument for the non-periodic-execution function module (55A) and outputs an execution start command for the function modules to the second control part (C2). The second control part (C2) outputs a return value for the non-periodic-execution function module (55A) to the first control part (C1). The first control part (C1) reflects the return value in an output variable for the periodic-execution function module (55B).

The present disclosure provides an STM32-based automatic control system for a broadcast transmitter, including an STM32 microcontroller, a host computer, a drive unit, a touch screen unit, a local network server unit, an image acquisition unit and a sampling unit, wherein the STM32 microcontroller is connected to the host computer. An output interface of the STM32 microcontroller is connected to the drive unit, wherein the touch screen unit is configured to display acquired information that is processed, and receive a control instruction of a touch operation. The local network server unit is configured to achieve remote network display of transmitter information and remote network control, the image acquisition unit is configured to timely acquire an image in a cabinet of the transmitter such that a maintainer can conduct remote observation, and the sampling unit is configured to control the drive unit to achieve automatic control of the transmitter.

A mobile CAN-Bus control system is provided, in which a CAN-Bus based machinery converts CAN control signals to a data stream based on a communication schema. At least a portion of the converted data stream includes an index lookup identifier, which, together with a locally stored index loop table, permits the receiving device to extract the control signal. The data stream, which is compatible with communication protocols such as Bluetooth™ and/or Wi-Fi, is transmitted to a mobile controller, which in turn parses the data stream and translates it into useable data points based on a locally stored index lookup table. The mobile controller may upload the received data stream to a server for data storage and retrieval, and is capable of remotely accessing the CAN-Bus based system to modify system parameter values and bumping them to the CAN-Bus system to achieved desired operational state of the machinery.

Systems and methods are provided for enhancing diagnosis of control logic by automatically triggering latent or quiescent diagnostic logic in response to a CAN bus signal and without requiring a software update of the control logic. The diagnostic logic may be triggered to provide an increase in the frequency of CAN messages that are generated. The diagnostic logic may be further triggered to provide a generation of additional CAN messages reporting operation signals beyond those that are normally generated. The diagnostic logic may be further triggered to provide higher priority to selected CAN messages reporting operation signals. The diagnostic logic may be still further triggered to one or more of increase the frequency of selected CAN report messages, generate additional CAN messages reporting operation signals beyond those that are normally generated, and/or provide higher priority to selected CAN messages reporting operation signals, each without requiring a software update.

Systems and methods for providing network connectivity and remote monitoring, optimization, and control of pool/spa equipment are provided. “Internet-of-Things” (IoT) functionality is provided for pool and spa equipment in a flexible and cost-effective manner. Network connectivity and remote monitoring/control of pool and spa equipment is provided by various components such as a network communication and local control subsystem installed in pool/spa equipment, and other components. Also disclosed are various control processes (“pool logic”) which can be embodied as software code installed in any of the various embodiments of the present disclosure.
