  • Device and method for manipulating communication messages
    Patent number: 8407388
    Abstract: A device for manipulating an operating state of a deterministic communication system is provided, which communication system includes a physical data bus, a plurality of nodes connected thereto, and an arrangement for transmitting messages in message frames at fixedly predefined communication cycles. The device is situated in the data bus between at least one node, from whose point of view the operating state of the communication system is manipulated, and the other nodes of the communication system. To make any desired manipulation of the operating state of the communication system possible, the manipulation device includes an arrangement for short-circuiting the data bus (2) and/or interrupting the data bus.

  • Functional unit for carrying out logical test cases on a test system interconnected to a unit to be tested and corresponding method
    Patent number: 7676696
    Abstract: A functional unit for carrying out logical test cases on a test system interconnected to a unit that is to be tested, the functional unit being suitable for being interconnected between the logical test cases and the test system in such a way that the logical test cases are decoupled from the test system, and, in this context, for supporting an execution of the logical test cases on the test system as mediator.
