Patent ID: 8131887

Claim:
An electronic processing apparatus comprising one or more remote interactive display devices and a calculator unit, wherein the display device comprises at least a screen, a connector selectively connectable to the calculator unit, a user interface device and a microprocessor; wherein the calculator unit comprises at least one or more connectors able to be selectively connected to said connector, a processor and a first non-volatile memory, wherein said electronic processing apparatus further comprises a single connection element able to connect said connector and a selected one of said connectors of the calculator unit, both for data exchange and also for the transfer of energy for electric feed; wherein the display device, through the connection element, is able at least to transmit through said connector information relating to the own functioning parameters thereof to the calculator unit, said functioning parameters being compared with predetermined information recorded in said first non-volatile memory of the calculator unit and comprising the characteristic properties of the display device, the graphical resolution of the screen, the characteristics of the user interface device, so as to identify, between said predetermined information recorded in said first non-volatile memory, the proper functioning parameters of the display device and to select the related functioning parameters of the calculator unit required to manage the, and communicate with, the display device, in order to obtain an automatic configuration of the display device, wherein the display device comprises its own second non-volatile memory that exchanges data and information with the microprocessor, the second non-volatile memory storing predetermined information relating to the functioning parameters of one or more of said calculator units, wherein, through the connection element, said display device is able to autonomously actuate a modification of its functioning parameters by setting a series of elementary graphic configurations until a sequence of data arriving from the calculator unit is received, the sequence of data intended to be displayed by the display device and suitable for the graphic configuration currently selected, said elementary graphic configurations, together with information for the recognition of determinate variants or types of the calculator unit, being registered in reference tables memorized in the second non-volatile memory of the display device.
