  • Publication number: 20240176326
    Abstract: Method for providing data from at least one machine-side data source (10) to at least one access point (20), comprising the steps of: setting up a data model (30), in which a predetermined definition and designation are stored for each of a plurality of machine-related parameters, storing the data model (30) in a data memory (50), setting up a first mapping (100) between source parameters of at least one machine-side data source (10) and machine-related parameters of the data model (30), and storing the first mapping (100) in a data memory (50).

  • Publication number: 20190045154
    Abstract: Disclosed is a multi-radio communication apparatus capable of remote communication exchanges with a cloud based communication server. The communication server, in turn, may be communicable with one or more content or other customer servers to allow data exchanges between the multi-radio communication apparatus and virtually any cloud based server. The multi-radio communication apparatus may comprise processors, data storage components, a plurality of RF transceivers and corresponding antennas, and logic, at least a portion of which is implemented in circuitry. The logic may implement a mesh module configured to communicate with other apparatuses directly using a dedicated one of the plurality of RF transceivers. The logic may further implement a caching module configured to store data to be exchanged with a communication server at a later date.

  • Publication number: 20040201465
    Abstract: An optical display device of a selector lever arrangement with a selector lever mounted in the motor vehicle for shifting between different shifting states of a motor vehicle transmission. The selector lever can be pivoted along at least one shift gate from a first selector lever position into at least one second selector lever position, wherein the optical display device has at least two display elements arranged in different display positions for displaying symbols unambiguously associated with the shifting states and a detection device for detecting the current shifting state. The symbol associated with the current shifting state is always displayed by the first display element during the operation of the display device.

  • Patent number: 6461213
    Abstract: A casing system for a servo-drive associated with the radio receiver of a remote control system for a vehicle model, in which the servo-drive has a setting member or output arm connectable to the control part of the vehicle model. The casing system comprises a cylindrical mounting frame rigidly connectable with the vehicle model, for enclosing and supporting the servo-drive, and a casing for the servo-drive formed from a plurality of shells whose aggregate has the shape of an approximately circular cylinder. The cylinder of the casing has an outer diameter approximately corresponding with the width of the frame.

  • Patent number: 6292653
    Abstract: A servo case for holding electrical, electronic and mechanical servo components for connection to the receiver of a radio controlled model. The case has a plurality of recesses that allow for the servo components to extend into the recesses to be flush with the outer contour of the case. This feature allows for the cases to be made extremely thin and compact while allowing for the use of larger servo components, thus improving the operation of the servo.
