The invention relates to a method for setting at least one communication parameter of a communication module () of a charging station (), used for communication, in particular wired communication, via an interface () of the charging station (). The invention addresses the problem of enabling the at least one communication parameter to be set in the simplest manner possible, with significant reliability and great security. It is proposed according to the invention that: &#x2014;a calibration device () is coupled to the interface (), &#x2014;authentication data is transmitted from the calibration device () to the communication module (), &#x2014;a value for the at least one communication parameter is transmitted from the calibration device () to the communication module (), and&#x2014;the at least one communication parameter is set by the communication module () depending on an evaluation of the authentication data by the communication module () according to the value transmitted.

Setting a communication parameter of a communication module of a charging station

A method and system are provided for communication between in each case at least two communication terminal devices that are connected to a respective one of at least two coupled communication lines in which a communication protocol is utilized for communication over the respective one of the communication lines and the communication protocol controls transmitting and receiving of communication signals of the respective ones of the at least two communication terminal devices, for which purpose signal carriers are utilized.

Communication over a communication line

The invention relates to a mobile network subscriber () for use in a cabled network (), particularly in a collector wire network of an electric telpher, wherein the cabled network () has at least one first segment (S) and at least one second segment (S) and wherein the mobile network subscriber () has a first slave modem (SM), a second slave modem (SM), a first contact arrangement (K) and a second contact arrangement (K) in each case. In order to allow a change between two segments of a network in a simple and efficient manner, it is proposed that the slave modems (SM, SM) be provided for communication with at least one first master modem (MM) and/or at least one second master modem (M) via the contact arrangements (K, K) and the segments (S, S), wherein the mobile network subscriber () is provided for movement along the segments (S, S), the contact arrangements (K, K) of the mobile network subscriber () being arranged such that the change from the first segment (S) to the second segment (S) involves at least one of the contact arrangements (K, K) being connected to the first segment (S) and at least one further contact arrangement (K, K) being connected to the second segment (S).

Changing between segments of a network

A method for data transmission in a communication network that is split into a plurality of segments including a transmission medium and at least one slave subscriber, each segment being provided with a segment master, and two respective adjacent segments being connected by a transition region, where a segment master and a slave subscriber, which is situated in the segment of the segment master or in a transition region connecting this segment to an adjacent segment, communicate via the transmission medium of the segment of the segment master, where the segment master assigns the slave subscriber at least one transmission time interval for sending messages, so that transmission time intervals assigned by the segment master do not overlap, and where a slave subscriber within a transition region checks, before sending a message, whether the transmission media of both segments connected by the transition region are free to send a message.

Data transmission in a segmented communication network

A collector wire network for communicating locally fixed system parts having at least one variable-location system part, wherein data transmission devices are each assigned a reception range, where the reception range is mapped onto a section that results from a length of a collector wire segment plus a first overlap length and a second overlap length, the data transmission device connected to the respective collector wire segment is configured such that a level of the data signal transmitted thereby is matched to a respective reception range such that, because of attenuation of the level, caused by line damping along the first and second conductors and the coupling elements, the level in a receiving device of a variable-location system part which is located outside the reception range no longer recognized as a valid signal.

A method and a system control platform doors that are disposed at a distance to each other corresponding to a train to be entered via the platform. In order to actuate platform doors in a simple manner such that the door system of a platform is highly available, the platform doors are divided into a plural number of groups, that adjacent platform doors are associated with different groups. Each group may be connected to at least two controllers via one respective transfer medium, that control signals of at least one controller are transferred to the platform doors via the transfer media, such that in case of failure of one controller, the functions of the failed controller are transferred to the at least second controller.
