An electric center for motor vehicles has an electric part by which different electric power levels are connected to each other. The electric center is arranged on an insulating part holder, and connectors of the electric part engage into the insulating part holder. In order to assure a compact electric center for motor vehicles which is insensitive to disturbance, at least one connector of the electric part which is acted on with a higher power is contacted by a current feed on the side of the part holder facing away from the part holder. At least one low-load connector of the electronic component is connected with a holder member bearing electronic components, the holder member being physically separated from the insulating part holder.

An arrangement is disclosed for time division multiplex data transmission with a bus system which includes a bus line and a plurality of participators connected to the bus line in data transmitting connection with each other in a predetermined succession in a predetermined combination, in which each participator has at least one programmable counter having a counting input for connection with a synchronizing signal generator and an output for connection with a switching device to produce a data transmitting connection between the bus line and a data source or sink of this participator, whereby the counters of all participators are synchronized with each other. The arrangement includes apparatus to detect short circuits and to shut down individual sections of the bus line to protect the individual sections without shutting down all sections.

An arrangement is disclosed for time division multiplex data transmission with a bus system which includes a bus line and a plurality of participators or terminals connected to the bus line in data transmitting connection with each other in a predetermined succession in a predetermined combination, in which each participator or terminal has at least one programmable counter having a counting input for connection with a synchronizing signal generator and an output for connection with a switching device to produce a data transmitting connection between the bus line and a data source or sink of this participator or terminal, whereby the counters of all participators or terminals are synchronized with each other. The arrangement includes apparatus to detect short circuits and to shut down individual sections of the bus line to protect the individual sections without shutting down all sections.

A warning device with central indication of operating conditions to be monitored in motor vehicles, with an indicator device which is controllable by a monitoring device. The space for representation of the operating conditions to be monitored that is used is that which is already provided in the dashboard console for indication of the information concerning the clock time.

Warning device with central indication of operating conditions to be

A connector for a ring circuit of a bus-system with a plurality of connectable information sending and/or information receiving units, whereby the connector has a housing with several plug contacts provided with cutters, which cutters cut through the insulation of the ring circuit for the contacting and which are connectable with an information sending and/or information receiving unit, and under circumstances with a consumer. The housing which receives the plug contacts is constructed as a connector upper part which can be slipped on the ring circuit and under certain circumstances additional lines. The information receiving unit is constructed with use of a printed board assembly and is housed in a capsule which is able to be slipped on the upper part of the housing. The plug contacts have contact surfaces which contact the connection surfaces of the printed board assembly.
