Abstract: A switching device switches at least one current phase between responsive current phase input and responsive current phase output, wherein the switching device is suitable for switching electrical current of a power circuit of an electric motor. The switching device further includes a first communication system interface for a first communication system, a second communication system interface for a second communication system, and a selecting unit for selecting whether the switching device is a master or slave in relation to the second communication system.

Abstract: It is normal practice in automation to network individual components of an installation via bus lines, with this network carrying out a multiplicity of communication and supply tasks during operation. In at least one embodiment, a system interface, as well as an installation which uses this interface, are disclosed with the operational reliability of the installation being improved. In at least one embodiment, a system interface is proposed for connection of a bus line to an actuator assembly in a control system with a K connection for connection of a communication channel and with a K-U connection for connection of a communication voltage supply channel, and an A-U connection for connection of an actuator voltage supply channel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a regulating device (1) for a motor, comprising a housing (2) which can be associated with said motor and in which a control unit (5) and an actuator (6) are arranged. Due to heat-related reasons, said device can only be used in an encapsulated manner, for example close to a motor. In order to solve this problem, the actuator (6) comprises an electromagnetic switching element (8a,8b) and the control signal (7) for the same is designed as a timing signal which is measured—taking into consideration at least one heat source inside or optionally outside the housing (2)—in such a way that the operating temperature of the electromagnetic switching element (8a,8b) is below an upper authorised limiting value.

Abstract: A data bus system is disclosed, including a master unit, a first slave unit and at least one further slave unit. For the purposes of slave selection, the master unit includes a code output for outputting a unique code, particularly a Gray code. The first slave unit includes a slave selection input connected to the code output of the master unit. The first slave unit includes a slave selection output, connected to the at least one further slave unit. The first slave unit includes an inverter which inverts a bit of the unique code applied to the slave selection input and outputs it to the slave selection output of the first slave unit.
