Abstract: The present invention relates to a telephone handset, a base and an associated method for updating the software of the handset. The communication base comprises a radio interface to communicate with a communication device operating by means of a software application, a charger circuit and a means of detecting a new version of the software. The communication base comprises a means for notifying the device, via the radio means, of the availability of the new software version and a means for transmitting the new software version to the device when the charger circuit is connected to the battery charging circuit of the device.

Abstract: Apparatus comprising a portable electronic appliance and a data input appliance which is adapted to deliver information to the portable electronic appliance via the recharging interface for recharging the batteries of the portable electronic appliance.

Abstract: Portable radiotelephone including a central processing unit, a transmit and receive radio circuit connected to at least one antenna, a microphone emerging upwards when the radiotelephone is worn by means of a necklace, a speaker and a keypad that includes at least one multifunction key.

Abstract: The invention relates to a local radio communication system comprising a central controller (9), several bases (7) which are connected to the controller and several terminals (5) which communicate with the bases. The bases (7) communicate with the terminals using a local radio communication protocol with time division multiple access. Said bases are adapted to real-time transmit chronological information to the controller releasing to the transmissions planned for said bases. The controller is adapted to determine if there is a risk of interferences occurring between the planned transmissions and to impose a chronology for said planned transmissions on the bases in order to limit said interferences.

Abstract: The invention concerns a central base for a private wireless local area network wherein the central base includes electronic circuits that include an electronic central unit and which is supplied with electricity with at least one live supply line intended to be connected to an external electricity power source. The central base is suitable for communicating on the one hand with a public telecommunication network, and on the other hand with at least one wireless peripheral device according to a digital bi-directional wireless protocol for a private wireless local area network.

Abstract: The invention concerns a local combined telephone and an alarm system comprising a central base communicating through two-way radio channel, according to a multiple access communication protocol, with telephone stations and detectors adapted to detect an emergency situation. The base transmits at regular intervals of less than 10 minutes, scanning messages addressed to the detectors and determines whether the detectors are operating, depending on whether it receives clearance messages from the detectors.

Abstract: Radio paging receiver comprising a central unit associated with a memory containing a tree-structured database comprising a plurality of menu pages and text pages, each menu page including at least an entry capable of being selected to display on the screen another menu page or a text page. Each entry of each menu page comprises a data field capable of being displayed and a call code corresponding to another menu page or text page. Moreover, the central unit is designed for updating the stored menu pages on the basis of radio messages comprising a menu page identification code and at least one entry designed to appear in the menu page presenting said identification code.
