Abstract: A method of configuring an arrangement has a computer system and a telephone installation, wherein the computer system connects to the telephone installation via a data interface and wherein the computer system and the telephone installation can assume at least one first and one second operating state, including generating control data with a control unit in the computer system depending on a change in operating state of the computer system, from the first operating state into the second operating state, exchanging the control data between the computer system and the telephone installation via the data interface, setting up one or more parameters for the second operating state of the telephone installation with a configuration unit in the telephone installation depending on the control data exchanged, and changing the operating state of the telephone installation from the first operating state into the configured second operating state set up.

Abstract: A method for an autonomous rights administration component of a computer system includes recording devices of the computer system, determining unique identifiers for each recorded device, permanently storing the unique identifiers, defining a usage rights contingent and a usage rights requirement and activation of at least one application function on the basis of a comparison of the usage rights contingent with the usage rights requirement. The invention furthermore relates to an autonomous rights administration system and a device for a rights administration of this type.

Abstract: A power supply assembly for a terminal having Ethernet energy supply, includes a split device with an Ethernet energy supply connection (A1) that connects to an Ethernet cable which is set up to supply energy and with an output to provide a first DC voltage (U1), a logic unit coupled to the split device, a DC/DC converter coupled to the logic unit and connected to the output of the split device in a switchable manner, and a voltage (U) that supplies the terminal being provided at an output of the DC/DC converter under control of the logic unit.

Abstract: A terminal for operation with an assembly for virtual data processing includes a controller, an adaptation unit coupled to the controller, a virtualization interface linked to the controller which accesses data processing resources, a display coupled to the virtualization interface via the adaptation unit which displays information, a communication unit coupled to the controller and to the virtualization interface, and an energy supply coupled to the controller which provides energy to operate the terminal, wherein the controller, the energy supply, the adaptation unit, the virtualization interface and the communication unit are integrated in a housing of the display.

Abstract: A cooling device for an electric machine with thermal zones having interactions with one another is proposed, each of the thermal zones containing a heat source and a temperature sensor, and at least one cooling means, a controlling element connected to the temperature sensor being allocated to each thermal zone for activation of the at least one cooling means. The cooling device is characterized by the fact that outputs of a plurality of controlling elements can be connected to the at least one cooling means. In an inventive cooling device, a plurality of controlling elements can act on one or more cooling means, whereby cooling means are supported or completely replaced by other existing cooling means.
