Abstract
A cable includes an input interface, a memory and an output interface. The input interface is connected to the memory. The output interface is also connected to the memory. The memory is capable of storing at least one parameter of the cable, which is input via the input interface. The output interface is capable of accessing the at least one parameter stored in the memory and outputting the at least one parameter. Moreover, a system and a device are disclosed.
Claims20
A cable for being connected to a device, comprising:
- an input interface, a memory and an output interface, wherein the input interface is connected to the memory, wherein the output interface is also connected to the memory, wherein the memory is capable of storing at least one parameter of the cable, which is input via the input interface, wherein the output interface is capable of accessing the at least one parameter stored in the memory and outputting the at least one parameter,
- wherein the cable further comprises a sensor that is capable of sensing an environmental parameter of the cable, and wherein the at least one parameter stored in the memory is stored depending on the environmental parameter such that the sensed environmental parameter is taken into account in order to obtain the corresponding value of the parameter for the sensed environmental parameter.
A system comprising:
- a device and a cable for being connected to the device, wherein the cable comprises an input interface, a memory and an output interface, wherein the input interface is connected to the memory, wherein the output interface is also connected to the memory, wherein the memory is capable of storing at least one parameter of the cable, which is input via the input interface, and wherein the output interface is capable of accessing the at least one parameter stored in the memory and outputting the at least one parameter,
- wherein the system further comprises a sensor that is capable of sensing an environmental parameter of the cable and/or the device, and wherein the at least one parameter stored in the memory is stored depending on the environmental parameter such that the sensed environmental parameter is taken into account in order to obtain the corresponding value of the parameter for the sensed environmental parameter.
A device for being connected to a cable, the device comprising:
- an input interface, a memory and an output interface, wherein the input interface is connected to the memory, wherein the output interface is also connected to the memory, wherein the memory is capable of storing at least one parameter of the cable and/or the device, which is input via the input interface, and wherein the output interface is capable of accessing the at least one parameter stored in the memory and outputting the at least one parameter,
- wherein the device is connectable to or comprises a sensor that is capable of sensing an environmental parameter of the cable and/or the device, and wherein the at least one parameter stored in the memory is stored depending on the environmental parameter such that the sensed environmental parameter is taken into account in order to obtain the corresponding value of the parameter for the sensed environmental parameter.
