  • Publication number: 20090234515
    Abstract: The organization system is designed for influencing a system, in particular a vehicle system, during ongoing operation of the system. The organization system has an adaptation manager and adaptive software components, each having an interface. The adaptation manager sets, adapts and/or controls the adaptive software components through the interfaces. The adaptation manager may have a system interface through which presettings of the systems are modifiable.

  • Patent number: 5077827
    Abstract: A warning radio receiver is adapted to receive not only a recognition signal for emergency broadcast but also two further recognition signals, namely a warning network transmitter recognition signal and a warning region recognition signal. If, for example, the currently tuned transmitter changes its warning region recognition signal, after the expiration of the timing period of a first timer 16, one or more seeking operations for other transmitters with the predetermined warning region recognition signal are started. If a predetermined number of such seeking operations remain unsuccessful, the reception readiness of the transmitter is demonstrated by switchover to a transmitter associated with a different warning region. If such other transmitters also cannot be found, exceeding another predetermined number of fruitless seeking operations results in the generation of a receiver malfunction indication.

  • Patent number: 5060300
    Abstract: A radio warning receiver has a battery or accumulator (7) and means (8) for switching over to battery operation mode when network power (6) fails. Battery power is conserved by turning off (9) power to the end stage (3), placing the warning receiver in a so-called Stand-By Mode, until a control signal is detected (5) which indicates that a warning is to be broadcast. Then, power to the end stage is restored (11) for the duration of the warning broadcast.

  • Patent number: 4958154
    Abstract: A programming unit (1) for ON-OFF switching of a siren or similar warning device can be provided with remote actuation capability by connecting it to a radio receiver tuner (27) and radio data signal decoder (25). The output of the signal decoder (25) is connected to a block decoder (12). Some of the block decoder outputs are connected to a comparison circuit (8) which attempts to match a broadcast siren address with a stored address uniquely identifying the associated siren program unit (1). In the event of a match, a set of flip-flops and gates controls loading of information at other block decoder outputs into a siren program buffer memory (4) and then into an end memory (3) attached to and controlling the program unit (1). After a siren program is performed, end memory (3) is reset.
