Abstract: A communication system for safe wireless control of an maneuverable object. A control unit includes an operator for operating the object and a receiver for receiving wireless information. A portable operating unit has a transmitter for transmitting wireless information. The information is divided in time slots, each including a data package. The receiver includes a detector for detecting in a time part of a time slot the presence of the data package and a calculator for calculating upon a reception failure the number of time parts having no presence of the data package following a time slot with presence of the data package. The control unit exercises a control command when a data package with a correct information has been received within a number of time parts just exceeding a full time slot.

Abstract: An industrial robot including a manipulator, a control unit for controlling the manipulator, and a portable operating unit for teaching and manually operating the robot.

The invention increases the safety by ensuring that the operator is within the specified operating area.

Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and devices, with which a selection action of information is performed in a central system before communicating the selected information to a user terminal. This selection (4,6) is according to the invention based on a least both the identity (9) of the user and the position (11) of the user terminal. By using relations between identity (9) and profiles (8) a first information filtering can be achieved. By further using relations between the actual position (11) of the user terminal and the constitution of the industrial automation facility, information irrelevant for the parts in the vicinity of the user terminal is removed. Preferably, also the operational situation of the facility and the history of the user actions are used for filtering or prioritising the information. The most prioritised data quantity is communicated (12) to the user terminal (13) and displayed at a user terminal display.

Abstract: A communication system for safe wireless control of an manoeuvrable object (3), comprising a control unit (1) having means for operating the object and receiving means for wireless information, and a portable operating unit (2) having sending means for wireless information, where said information is divided in time slots (ts), each containing a data package (21). The receiving means comprises detecting means for detecting in a time part (tp) of a time slot the presence of said data package and calculating means for calculating upon a reception failure the number of time parts having no presence of said data package following a time slot with presence of said data package. The control unit exercises a control command when a data package with a correct information has been received within a number of time parts just exceeding a full time slot.

Abstract: Proposed is a configuration for the acquisition and/or monitoring of medical data, in particular the state of the cardiovascular and pulmonary system, blood values or blood composition, characterised by at least one measuring sensor for the acquisition of the medical data such as the state of the cardiovascular system, etc. of a person comprising at least one light source which can emit light at least at two wavelengths, as well as at least one light receiver for determining the light transmitted and/or reflected through a tissue portion of a person or an animal further comprising means in order to increase the optical Signal-to-Noise and/or Signal-to-Background ratio.

Abstract: An industrial robot comprising a manipulator (3), a control unit (2) for controlling the manipulator, a portable operating unit (1) for teaching and manually operating the robot, which operating unit is adapted for wireless communication with the control unit, and an emergency stop unit (10). The emergency stop unit (10) is arranged movable and the portable operating unit (1) comprises a first receiving member (8) for receiving the emergency stop unit.

Abstract: In order to identify an item (1), on which a return deposit can be imposed, an element (11), which can at least be read in the radio frequency range and/or optionally one which can be switched or activated, are/is provided on the item (1). This element is activated optionally before or upon handing over the item and/or payment of a deposit for the item. The element is activated in such a manner that enables the item to be identified as one on which a deposit has been imposed. Before or upon returning the item (1), the element is read and, optionally when reimbursing the deposit the element (11) is activated and or deactivated in such a manner that enables the item to be identified as one on which a deposit is not imposed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for recording and/or monitoring medical data, particularly data pertaining to the cardiovascular condition and to the blood properties of an individual having, for example, cardiovascular disorders or diabetes. Said device comprises at least one measuring sensor (3, 3′, 23), in particular, an car sensor for detecting the cardiovascular condition of the individual (1) and comprises a logic controller for determining irregularities in the data recorded by the measuring sensor. The device also comprises a transmitting-receiving device (5) for voice and/or data in order to dial up at least one third party (9) and to transmit data thereto. Finally, the device comprises a locating system module by means of which the location of the individual is transmitted to the third party.

Abstract: An industrial robot comprising a manipulator (3), a control unit (2) having means for automatically operating the manipulator, and a portable operating unit (1) having means for manually operating the manipulator. The robot further comprises a movable key device (10) carrying information about the identity of the robot and said portable operating unit (1) comprising a member (8) for receiving said movable key device and means for reading the robot identity from the key device.

Abstract: For the acquisition and/or monitoring of medically relevant data, in particular of the state of the cardiovascular system, of blood properties as well as electrocardiographic data of a person, for example with cardiovascular disorders or disorders of other organs, a configuration is proposed, which comprises

Abstract: An electric power distribution system having a number of automatic protection breakers distributed on various levels is disclosed herein. Each protection breaker includes an electronic protection unit to open the breaker, which is controlled based on the amount of current flowing through the breaker and its derivative. Each of the breakers is preferably connected in order to exchange information concerning their respective status. Also disclosed herein is method for controlling the intervention sequence of the mutually interlocked breakers, in which a breaker reports a detected fault condition to its next higher level breaker.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for coding and transmitting a digital message (c(x)) comprising a first number of information bits (a(x)) and a second number of control bits (b(x)), said message or code word being normally transmitted continuously, as well as a method for receiving and decoding such a digital message. In order to allow for a reliable block synchronization and error detection, there is according to the invention suggested a code format by which there is avoided the need to wait for a start of a block or message, and by which there is allowed verification before syncronization.
