Abstract

The invention is based on the object of making available a control and data transmission system which uses simple components to permit current-modulated data transmission via a serial bus, and whose components can be used in a flexible way. For this purpose, the control and data transmission system ( ) has a controllable bus terminating device ( ) for impressing a predetermined working current into the bus ( ). Each subscriber ( ) has a D.C.-coupled transmitter ( ) for generating and emitting control signals and data signals which modulate the working current, and a D.C.-coupled receiver ( ) for sensing and evaluating the working current which is modulated by the control signals and data signals.
