Filed: 2008-09-12
Abstract: The method involves determining position of code elements in a region of sensor arrays (S1-S4, 1) i.e. complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) array, where the elements are distinguishable by radiations. A value of the sensor arrays is read from sensor elements. A position of a code on a rotary body (2) and a linear code carrier is determined based on the value by averaging. The arrays are read twice by reading devices in opposing directions or a pair of sensors is read by array-specific reading devices relative to moving direction of the body and the carrier in the opposing directions. An independent claim is also included for a device for determining a position of a code on a rotary body and a linear code carrier relative to a sensor element.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'identification d'une pluralité de dispositifs connectés le long d'une liaison de communications commune. Chaque dispositif porte un numéro d'identification unique appartenant à une plage définie de tels numéros. Une station de commande (P) balaie les dispositifs en envoyant une succession de signaux d'interrogation, les signaux d'interrogation comprenant une représentation des numéros d'identification des dispositifs. Un premier balayage est effectué avec des signaux d'interrogation identifiant une première plage de numéros d'identification, et chaque dispositif envoie à la station de commande un signal de réponse qui comprend son numéro d'identification complet et une somme de contrôle, suite à une concordance des numéros d'identification. Si deux ou plus des dispositifs génèrent un signal de réponse, les signaux de réponse seront considérés comme étant invalides par la station de commande, et le premier balayage est mis en pose. Suite à la mise en pose du premier balayage, la station de commande lance un second balayage comprenant des signaux d'interrogation identifiant une plage plus restreinte de numéros d'identification. Des balayages successifs sont effectués jusqu'à ce qu'une seule réponse soit renvoyée, ce par quoi la station de commande associe un numéro d'identification unique à chacun des dispositifs.
