Abstract: A safety application mobile measuring device (100) includes a control unit (110) and a detection unit (120). The control unit controls changes between a switched-on state and a switched-off state depending on a received detection signal (112). The detection unit monitors, in the switched-off state, whether a switch-on condition (414) is present and outputs the detection signal, which indicates a change into the switched-on state which is to be carried out. The detection unit monitors the switched-on state as to whether at least two switch-off conditions (444, 448) are present and outputs the detection signal, which indicates a change into the switched-off state, which is to be carried out, in the presence of at least two switch-off conditions. At least two detection devices (122, 124) each carry out a detection corresponding to the at least one switch-on condition and to the at least two switch-off conditions.

Abstract: A thermal imaging camera is provided with at least two different sensitivities for alternating reading and with has a device for linking at least two more and less sensitive images read consecutively. The recording and displaying of thermal images makes it possible to combine images with two different dynamic ranges in a common thermal image, wherein the noise and drift of the pixel signals as well as the amount of storage needed for buffering and processing are reduced at the same time. An image buffering unit is designed as a common accumulator (8) for both more sensitive and less sensitive original images (B) and makes available a common output image (A).

Abstract: Tempering of sample (58) in test strip (37) is carried out by temperature regulating unit (40) and heating/cooling unit (92). The sample is fed to the test strip by a developer fluid (57) and a metering unit (55). The result of the detection reaction becomes visible by a change in color (36), which is detected optically and analyzed. The data of a control chart (52) with the measured values of first and second temperature sensors (41, 42) are used to set the control parameters for tempering. Code (86) on the test sample holder (35) is read in a sequence of steps. Parameters for phases of the measurement are determined from measured values of first and second temperature sensors, values of the control chart and the code of the test sample holder. These parameters are used by the temperature regulating unit during the measurement.
