  • Patent number: 7970969
    Abstract: In a method of communication on a multidrop bus of a magnetic resonance system, an adaptive protocol script for telegrams on the multidrop bus is used, that implements adaptive protocol matching using telegram start characters, addresses and frame-type binding. For this purpose, a telegram frame is divided into a link layer and a service layer, the link layer being device-based and being responsible for differentiating addresses and frame types, and enabling devices that use different communication protocols to be simultaneously present on the bus. The service layer represents the load of the link layer, and its service script is operation-based, and the service layer provides, for the exterior, interfaces that are independent of the communication protocols used by the devices.

  • Patent number: 7228256
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a method and system for recording a monitoring log for use in a magnetic resonant imaging system, wherein a log document is crated and is shared in an external storage device, timed queries are made to monitoring points on a monitored target by a timer and the data collected are periodically reported to a control module; and wherein the control module formats the reported data into a record format and writes the record formed into the shared log document. When the log document is not accessible, a buffer queue is opened automatically in an internal storage device to buffer the reported data, and when the access returns to normal, the records and the recorded data in the buffer queue are written as a supplement into the log document.
