20140232776 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLING TENSION IN A WEB - A method for controlling tension in a print media in a tension zone of a printing system comprises enabling an active tension control mode until the tension in the print media is in a stable state for a given period of time, and then switching to a synchronized control mode. The tension is monitored to determine if it exceeds a tension inner band but does not exceed a tension outer band while in the synchronized control mode. The speed of drive rollers is adjusted in response to this determination. The tension is also monitored to determine if it exceeds the tension outer band while in the synchronized control mode. The synchronized control mode is disabled in response to this determination and the active tension control mode is enabled. The frequency of speed adjustments is lesser in the synchronized control mode than in the active tension control mode. | 08-21-2014 |

20150071308 | System And Method For Monitoring Network Synchronization - Systems and methods are disclosed for monitoring network synchronization. The disclosed embodiments utilize time window snapshots to capture network time information and compare the captured time information against time reference information to determine network time errors. These network time errors can then be analyzed with respect to selected operating parameters and tolerances to determine network synchronization errors and to generate alarms. Certain embodiments are configured to capture time information data and to analyze this captured data locally to determine time error data. Certain other embodiments are configured to utilize multiple capture devices and to transmit time error data to a central snapshot synchronization monitor. The central snapshot synchronization monitor can also communicate control information to the capture devices to control the snapshot time windows. In addition, synchronization errors can be used as trigger events to cause additional capture of time information by other capture devices. | 03-12-2015 |
