Abstract: The invention relates to a device for testing solar home systems including at least one of each of the following components: a photovoltaic solar generator, a battery, a charge controller and a load. According to the invention, connecting means are provided. These enable the device to be connected to the at least one charge controller, the at least one charge controller having been uncoupled from the other components; to the at least one solar generator, to the at least one battery and to the at least one load. The device also includes testing means with which all the components can be tested individually and within their typical operational connections to each other in order to determine the parameters and states which are characteristic to the operativeness of the solar home system being tested. Display means for displaying the parameters and states that are tested are also provided. The inventive device enables less qualified employees to reliably test solar power installations with all the components which are interconnected on an interruptible bridge since the device is easy to connect to all the components in their entirety using the connecting means and since the test can be carried out automatically without manual intervention in connections of the solar power installation.

Filed: 1999-08-24
Abstract: Préparation d'une matière de base lubrifiante utile pour former des lubrifiants tels que des huiles moteur multigrades, des huiles pour transmissions automatiques, des graisses et autres. Pour préparer cette matière de base, on hydro-isomérise une fraction de charge hydrocarbure paraffineuse dont le point d'ébullition initial se situe entre 650 et 750 °F et dont le point terminal est au moins égal à 1050 °F, synthétisée par un procédé de synthèse d'hydrocarbure Fischer-Tropsch par boue liquide. L'hydro-isomérisation forme un hydro-isomérat contenant la matière de base désirée qui est récupérée, sans déparaffiner l'hydro-isomérat. L'hydro-isomérisation est conduite dans des conditions efficaces pour transformer au moins 67 % en poids de la charge hydrocarbure paraffineuse à point d'ébullition compris entre 650 et 750 °F en hydrocarbures à point d'ébullition plus faible. Une fois combinées à un système d'additif pour lubrifiant standard, ces matières de base sont transformées en huile multigrade pour carter de moteur, en huiles de boites de vitesses et en huiles hydrauliques conformément aux caractéristiques propres à ces huiles.

Title: Methods and systems for 1.7 way short message service
Inventor: COELHO DAVID R
IPC: H04W4/14
Filed: 2008-05-07
Abstract: A method and system are disclosed in which a Mobile Terminated SMS (Short Message Service) wireless message generated by a Computer Application containing an embedded query and response menu with several reply/response options (also called "response codes") which might be chosen as answer to the query by a recipient, can be sent to a Mobile Handset and in which a Mobile Originated response comprising a response code from the Mobile Handset (i.e. the recipient) can be uniquely re-associated with the original Mobile Terminated message and its query is described. Given that SMS provides no inherent association between Mobile Terminated and Mobile Originated messages, the method and system provide a scheme in which the original Computer Application menu response options are remapped to unique values prior to delivery to the Mobile Handset. When the response is received from the Mobile Handset, the method can uniquely re-associate and reverse map the response code back to the original Mobile Terminated message and original menu response options.
