Abstract:
A system for detecting a position of a dual solenoid device includes device configured to move between first and second positions, and a controller. The controller has first and second monitoring circuits in operable communication with first and second channels, respectively. The first and second channels are in operable communication with first and second solenoids, respectively. Each solenoid is configured to selectively operate as an active solenoid to move the device when the solenoid and its respective channel are in an active mode, and as a passive solenoid when the solenoid and its respective channel are in a passive mode to passively move with the active solenoid. Each of the monitoring circuits is configured to determine a position of the device when the channel the monitoring circuit is associated with is operating in the passive mode by monitoring an electrical parameter of the passive solenoid associated with that channel.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of determining a position of a dual solenoid device comprising:\n designating one of a first channel and a second channel as an active channel and the other channel as a passive channel, both channels being in operable communication with a respective solenoid, wherein each solenoid is in operable communication with a device and configured to move the device in response to being the active channel and to monitor a position of the device in response to being the passive channel; and determining the position of the device by monitoring an electrical parameter of the solenoid in operable communication with the passive channel.
