  • Publication number: 20220324348
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for determining an electrical system state of at least one motor vehicle, wherein electrical state data of the at least one motor vehicle are detected on the vehicle side by means of a power distribution unit in the at least one motor vehicle, wherein the detected electrical state data are transmitted to a central server by means of a communications interface, wherein the transmitted electrical state data are compared on the server side with at least one reference value, and wherein, starting from a comparison result, the electrical system state of the at least one motor vehicle is determined and provided. The disclosure further relates to a system for determining an electrical system state of at least one motor vehicle, a motor vehicle, and a central server.

  • Publication number: 20220274550
    Abstract: A method for the maintenance of vehicle components is disclosed. The operating points of a plurality of vehicle components are captured over a first time period ?t1 and first developments of the plurality of operating points over time in the first time period ?t1 are determined. The operating points of the plurality of vehicle components are captured over a second time period ?t2 different from the first time period ?t1 and second developments of the plurality of operating points over time in the second time period ?t2 are determined. By comparing the first developments and the second developments of the operating points of the plurality of vehicle components over time, it is determined whether the second development of the operating point of a vehicle component over time deviates from the first development of the operating point of said vehicle component over time by more than a predefined limit value.

  • Patent number: 7676571
    Abstract: A system monitors cable interface connections in a network. An individual cable interface connection includes a connection between a cable and an associated device in the network. The system includes a plurality of individual interface controllers. The plurality of individual interface controllers monitor one or more cable interface connections in a network. This plurality of interface controllers include a first interface controller for automatically acquiring device type identification data from a second interface controller which is monitoring a connection between a cable and an associated device in the network. The device type identification data is acquired via the cable and the first and second cable interface connections at the end of the cable. The device type identification data supports identification of the device associated with the second cable interface connection.
