  • Method for securing the display on a screen of mimic diagrams representing the status of a system
    Patent number: 5608868
    Abstract: In a method for securing the display on a screen of a workstation of mimic diagrams reflecting the status of a system connected to the workstation, a first counter is maintained in the system and a second counter is maintained in the workstation. The system periodically transmits to the workstation image data defining a mimic diagram reflecting the current status of the system, together with the first counter and a signature. In response, the workstation displays on the screen a mimic diagram based on the image data received and calculates a test value conditioned by the first and second counters, this value providing a basis for detecting a display error.
