摘要： In a value dispensing system, a system and method for securely loading and executing software in a secure device that does not include any non-volatile programmable memory is provided. A non-secure portion of the value dispensing system stores software for loading into the secure portion when needed. Commands being sent to the secure printer are monitored to determine if the secure has the necessary software to execute the command. If the secure device currently does not have the necessary software to execute the command, the command is delayed and the proper software is loaded from the non-secure portion to the RAM of the secure device. A signature associated with the software is verified to ensure the authenticity of the software. If the signature is verified, the command is passed to the secure device, and, utilizing the software in the RAM, the command is executed by the secure device.

摘要： The system and method described herein is used to determine the type of multi-switch connected to a direct-to-home satellite integrated receiver/decoder. The system looks for a predetermined marker pattern on the first port of a multi-switch using a first type of control signal (e.g., DiSEqC control signals) not knowing if this type of control signal will work, because the type of multi-switch is undetermined. If the marker is found on the first port, the system changes the control signal to address the third port of the multi-switch. If the marker is also acquired from the third port, and the second marker is the same as the first marker, then the multi-switch is ignoring the control signals and the process is repeated using a different pair of multi-switch ports (e.g., ports two and four) and/or a different type of control signal (e.g., tone control signals). However, if a different marker (or no marker) is found on the third port, then the multi-switch is responding to the control signals (e.g., DiSEqC control signals). Therefore, the type of multi-switch is determined (e.g., a DiSEqC type of multi-switch).
摘要翻译：本文描述的系统和方法用于确定连接到直接到家庭卫星集成接收器/解码器的多开关的类型。系统使用第一类型的控制信号（例如，DiSEqC控制信号）在多开关的第一端口上寻找预定的标记图案，不知道这种类型的控制信号是否可以工作，因为多开关的类型是不确定如果在第一个端口上找到标记，则系统将控制信号更改为寻址多开关的第三个端口。如果也从第三端口获得标记，并且第二标记与第一标记相同，则多开关忽略控制信号，并且使用不同的一对多开关端口重复该过程（例如，端口2和4）和/或不同类型的控制信号（例如，音调控制信号）。然而，如果在第三端口上找到不同的标记（或没有标记），则多开关响应控制信号（例如，DiSEqC控制信号）。因此，确定了多开关的类型（例如，多开关的DiSEqC类型）。

摘要： A method and system for detecting satellite signal lock in a satellite receiver system is disclosed. The system includes a first filter that isolates a noise frequency from the satellite signal, a second filter that isolates a service frequency from the satellite signal, circuits that derive a value indicative of the difference between a noise component and a service frequency component and output a difference signal level, a first comparator that determines whether the difference signal level is greater than a first threshold level, and a second comparator that determines whether the difference signal level is greater than a second threshold level. The method includes the steps of establishing a first threshold value between a satellite signal power level and the noise power level, combining a value indicative of a noise frequency signal component with a value indicative of a service frequency component to obtain a difference signal value, comparing the difference signal value with the first threshold value, and issuing a command if the difference signal value is below the first threshold value to inform the user of the loss of signal lock.
