Abstract
A connection system for the preferably contactless transmission of data and power supply signals between a sensor means and a base unit in a measuring and transmission system comprises a sensor-side and a base-side connection element. There is provided in at least one of the connection elements an optical diagnosis display unit for displaying state parameters within the measuring and transmission system.

Connection system, in particular a plug-in connection system for the preferably contactless transmission of data and power supply signals between a sensor means (2) and a base unit in a measuring and transmission system, comprising
- a sensor-side connection element (1) with
- a power signal receiver (12),
- a data modulator/demodulator unit (13) which can be coupled at least indirectly, for the purposes of signalling, to at least one measuring sensor (8, 9) of the sensor means, as well as
- a first coupling partner element (14) for the preferably contactless transmission of data and power supply signals via a coupling path (15),
- a base-side connection element (4) with
- a second coupling partner element (16) of the coupling path (15),
- a power signal transmitter (17),
- a data modulator/demodulator unit (18),
- a data interface (20) which can be connected to the base unit with respect to data, as well as
- a primary power supply (21),
- a microprocessor-assisted control and memory unit (19) in at least one of the connection elements (1, 4), and
- an optical diagnosis display unit (22) in at least one of the connection elements (4) for displaying state parameters within the measuring and transmission system.
