Abstract: This invention relates to reprogramming of in-circuit programmable chips installed in video lottery terminals (VLTs) by downloading electronic information (software) to such chips. Encrypted electronic information is downloaded from a host device to a gaming terminal through a communications link. The terminal comprises a decryption component configured for decrypting the encrypted electronic information using at least two security keys, at least one said key being resident in the terminal and at least another said key being delivered to the terminal at the time of the downloading (the downloading facilitating a replacement of existing software in terminal with corresponding decrypted software obtained from decrypting the encrypted information). The encrypted information transmitted to the terminal comprises at least one next version key for later use by the decryption component in decrypting a next version of encrypted electronic information. The non-resident key may be provided to the terminal by means of an electronic plug-in security key or provided through a secure network.

Title: Fluid controlled adjustable down-hole tool
Inventor: RUSSELL MARK ALEXANDER
IPC: E21B47/09
Filed: 2000-03-06
Granted: 2008-09-16
Abstract: An adjustable down-hole tool, for example a drill-string stabiliser (10), comprises a body (12) having a through bore (16). A mandrel (18) is rotationally fixed but axially movable in the body, the mandrel bein g movable by fluid pressure in the tool against the action of a first return spring (44) between a first, activated position and a second deactivated position. A sleeve (66) is between shoulders (68, 69) on the body and mandrel. Castellations (18a,b, 69a,b) are on the mandrel and facing edge or edges of the sleeve so that, when the castellations are in phase the mandrel is prevented from travelling from said first to second position and when they are out of phase they interdigitate and the mandrel is not prevented from travelling from said first to second position. A control piston (36) is slidable in the mandrel, being movable by fluid pressure in the tool against the action of a second return spring (50). The piston is axially slidable with respect to said sleeve and rotationally fixed with respect thereto. A circumferential barrel cam (56) is defined on the piston, a cam follower (58) being disposed in the mandrel but within the confines of the barrel cam so that axial movement of the piston with respect to the mandrel results in corresponding rotation of the piston with respectto the mandrel.

IPC: H04B10/291

Granted: 2005-10-04
Abstract: A wavelength-selective cross connect (WSC) switch is disclosed that can selectively pass a multi-wavelength incoming signal received on a given incoming port to a corresponding output port in a bar state; or cross the received signal to an opposite output port in a cross state, using only two wavelength blockers and a number of optical circulators. Power splitters divide the power of each incoming signal in half and the half power signals are applied to the two wavelength blockers surrounded by corresponding optical circulators. Each of the wavelength blockers control either the bar state or the cross state. The outputs of the two wavelength blockers are combined to produce an output signal at each of the output ports. Thus, the wavelength-selective cross connect can selectively pass or cross an incoming signal to an appropriate output port, as desired. The disclosed wavelength-selective cross connects can be serviced without interrupting traffic. In addition, the disclosed wavelength-selective cross connect requires only shutters, i.e., the wavelength blocker, and is significantly easier to manufacture than a device requiring switches.
