Abstract: A drive system includes a line assembly configured to connect a power converter to an electric motor which has a brake and an encoder. The line assembly has at least two power lines and only two brake lines exclusively to provide a data transfer between the power converter and the electric motor and to transfer energy to the encoder. The power converter applies a first supply voltage of a first polarity and a second supply voltage of a second polarity opposite to the first polarity to the brake lines for supplying the brake and the encoder. The electric motor supplies the encoder with the respective supply voltage independently of its polarity and the brake with the respective supply voltage depending on its polarity.

Abstract: In a method for thermal monitoring of a converter the temperature of the converter is measured. In addition, the output power of the converter is determined.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and an arrangement for the control of measuring systems such as a mass spectrometer or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instrument, the control being based on an online data analysis of the current measurements. Depending on the measurement experiment, the combined result of the data analysis can have either a direct influence on the next measurement or result in a dynamically organized sequence of measurements. The measuring systems may be controlled by establishing a database that comprises information on the objects to be measured, the measurement data which can be detected during the measurement experiments using the measuring systems, and information regarding the relationships between or among items of the measurement data.

Abstract: There is described a two-channel method for determining at least one output signal from variable input signals sent by a transmitter, using two independent channels and consisting in alternately guiding the input signals to said channels, wherein a multiplexer is used for switching said channels. A microprocessor contained in said channels delivers input test signals transmitted to the channel not currently receiving any variable input signal. Said channel transmits output signals compared with an expected value in order to verify the channel correct operation. Simultaneously, the other channel produces an output signal. Afterwards, the multiplexer switches a control signal.

Abstract: Like in a conventional crash detection algorithm, a crash is detected if a threshold value of an acceleration or an integrated acceleration is exceeded. Various characteristic values for characterizing the sensor signal paths are collected and supplied to the neural network. Said neural network returns the characteristic values for the seriousness of the crash, thereby facilitating the various retention systems to reaction individually. The invention provides a method for reliably, simply and quickly making statements regarding the seriousness and the course of a motor vehicle crash and for controlling occupant protection systems according to demand.
