Abstract: A connecting device for providing an electrical connection with an AS-Interface cable having a shape-encoding protrusion includes a housing. At least one recess in the housing has a cross-section to accommodate the cross-section of the AS-Interface cable in at least two configurations. A protruding element laterally protrudes from one side of the recess to form accommodation spaces between the protruding element and the bottom of the recess and between the protruding element and the opening of the recess, respectively. The accommodation spaces are configured to accommodate the shape-encoding protrusion of the AS-Interface cable when fully inserted into the recess.

Abstract: A method for controlling an indoor climate (201, 202, 203) includes sensing air quality factors within a structure (101) using an air quality control system (100). The sensor data associated with the air quality factors is transmitted from the air quality control system (100) to a server (140). The server (140) analyzes the sensor data and calculates a target air quality value. The target air quality value is then transmitted from the server (140) to the air quality control system (100). The method further includes controlling disbursement of a biocidally active substance within the structure (101). The air quality factors include the sensed concentration of the biocidally active substance. The control of the disbursement of the biocidally active substance is performed using closed-loop control, with the target air quality value as a setpoint and the sensed concentration of the biocidally active substance as a process variable.

Abstract: A process identifier transition monitor captures and assesses activities associated with a microprocessor or a microcontroller. Monitoring and assessment is performed by detection of process identifier transitions, which may be driven by an occurrence of one or more activities, such as execution of application software, system hardware mechanisms, or processor-internal mechanisms. Process identifier transitions are assessed to determine whether such transitions were expected. If a detected process identifier transition was not expected, then a system alert may be transmitted or some other appropriate response taken within the system.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns a method for controlling a sliding door arrangement of a motor vehicle, wherein the sliding door arrangement comprises a sliding door, a drive arrangement for motorized displacement of the sliding door, a control arrangement and a sensor arrangement with at least one sensor element, in particular implemented as a proximity sensor, where-in during operator event monitoring by means of the control arrangement the sensor signals of the sensor arrangement are monitored as to whether a predetermined operator event exists. It is proposed that the sensor arrangement is disposed at least partly in or on the sliding door and that opening the sliding door at least from a closed end position and/or closing the sliding door at least from an open end position is/are carried out by means of the drive arrangement depending on the result of the operator event monitoring.

Abstract: A control system for a closure element arrangement of a vehicle includes at least one linear distance sensor to detect operator control events. A control arrangement monitors the distance sensor for one of the operator control events. A longitudinal movement cycle of a body part of an operator in a longitudinal direction comprises one of the operator control events and can be detected using the distance sensor. The control arrangement detects a transverse movement cycle of the operator body part as another one of the operator control events. The transverse movement cycle runs in a transverse direction relative to the longitudinal direction. The closure element arrangement can be driven in response to detecting either one of the operator control events.
