- this means example ⁇ as the need for the integration of the drive unit of the invention in an industrial plant with a higher-level controller, they "know" virtually no information about the technical configuration of the drive unit to the signal transmitted to the drive means the information on the Rather, only minimal information about the type of signal or, in other words, the "language” of the signal is needed to enable a higher level controller to process the signal. If, as is customary with complex technical systems, the higher-level controller and the drive unit are delivered ⁇ supplies by different companies, it requires minimal effort to ensure compatibility between the higher-level controller and the drive unit with respect to the signaling maintenance requirements.
- the interface also allows the communication of a plurality of electric drive units with each other.
- This can examples are used to play to divert the signal of an electric drive unit to another drive ⁇ unit and outputting this.
- the output of the signal can be done for example by the display on a display.
- a plurality, possibly different, drive units can be networked with each other and monitored with regard to their maintenance and / or repair requirements, without requiring a higher-level control for this purpose.
- the monitoring can take place from one of the drive units.
- the evaluation unit and / or the sensor advantageously both, and / or the other components such as the signal transmission means, the operating time measuring device, the interface, optical and / or acoustic ⁇ zier devices for transmitting the signal , the speed and / or direction sensor, the signal input for receiving further data and / or signals, the temperature sensor, and / or the display provided in an adapter.
