  • Signal processing system
    Patent number: 6611209
    Abstract: A signal processing system includes a signal processing device (8) and a portable information carrier (2). The signal processing device comprises a signal source selection device (11) having a number of preset positions. A preset position can be related to a signal source and a number of parameter values. With the aid of read means (1), write means (14) and the portable information carrier, the preselection settings can be exchanged between similar signal-processing devices. In a first memory section (4), the signal source names are related to specific data, such as a frequency or channel number. In a second memory section (5) and in memory of the portable information carrier, preset positions are related to the parameter values and to signal source names, which uniquely identify the signal sources within a given set of signal sources.
