Patent ID: 8639363

Claim:
A system for managing a plurality of components, the system comprising: a first component responsive to a second signal and continuously providing a first output signal representative of a first operational parameter of the first component during a feedback period, the first component operating during a delay period in which a component other than the first component can be in a non-operating condition; and a second component continuously providing a second output signal representative of a second operational parameter of the second component during the feedback period, the second component responsive to the first output signal representative of the first operational parameter of the first component; wherein the first output signal is immediately conveyed over a connections such that the second operational parameter of the second component is managed in response to the first output signal during the feedback period and the second output signal is immediately conveyed by the second component over a connection after the delay period such that the first operational parameter of the first component is managed in response to the second output signal after the delay period.
