A modular multilevel power converter includes first electric components on a first vehicle and second electric components on a second vehicle. The first vehicle and the second vehicle are placed at a spacing distance from each other. The first electric components and the second electric components are electrically interconnected by a plurality of first connecting conductors.

In a method, a device and a computer program product for provision of protocols for configuration of a medical apparatus in the framework of a medical examination, the protocols are decentrally generated at a medical apparatus and are relayed to a central radiology information system. From the central RIS server the modified protocol can be relayed to arbitrary further instances via a network. The method employs a consistency mechanism which ensures that a set of protocols remains consistent and uniform given changes of one protocol.

The simultaneous multi-frequency excitation with two or more discrete frequencies of an electrically modulatable hot light source enables the parallel evaluation corresponding to the different drive frequencies. As a result thereof, the measuring time in the measurement of multi-layer systems is significantly shortened. As a result of a suitable selection of the discrete frequency parts of the drive frequencies, these can be adapted to the measurement problem.
