Abstract: An electrical household appliance includes a communication interface configured to communicate with a communication device through a communication connection. A remote control facility is configured to make it possible to operate the electrical household appliance by way of a communication device. A door is configured to open a region of the electrical household appliance in an open state or to close the region in a closed state. A monitoring facility is configured to detect the state of the door. A controller is configured to automatically activate the remote control facility if the door is in the closed state and the electrical household appliance is activated locally. A method for operating an electrical household appliance is also provided.

Abstract: A method of setting up a communication procedure between instances, one of which is a protocol tester that uses the method, includes the steps of selecting the instances, selecting a protocol layer for the communication procedure, selecting abstract communication interfaces for the protocol layer; selecting communication data and automatically setting up the communication procedure on the basis of the results of the selecting steps. Any of the selecting steps may be performed graphically, and parameters selected are assigned description files that are used in the setting up step.

Abstract: An apparatus for creating a protocol stack has at least one protocol layer with at least one standardized interface and an instance for the administration of the protocol stack. The protocol stack is created by making available the protocol layer(s), randomly compiling the protocol stack from the protocol layer(s), and making available an instance for the administration of the protocol stack using a graphical user interface.
