Communication server switching controller
First Claim
1. A server switching controller in which a first server 2 and a second server 3 are connected to a common communication controller 30, 20 installed in a machine or vehicle 50 via communication means 14, 15, 8, 9, 10, 11 to freely communicate with each other;
- said first server 2 and said second server 3 each having a server ID and an address ID1, ID2 respectively, for identifying each server;
with said communication controller 30, 20 having a controller ID and an address ID3 corresponding to the ID of the first server 2 and an address 1D4 corresponding to the ID of the second server 3 such that the communication controller 30, 20 can communicate with the first server 2 when set at the address of the first server and can communicate with the second server when set at the address of the second server;
and program means for switching the address setting in said communication controller to permit the controller to selectively communicate with either said first server or said second server so as to operate either in a first mode or in a second mode.

Abstract
The server switching controller system of the present invention includes a first server (2) and a second server (3) connected to a common controller (30, 20) installed in a vehicle (50) via communication means (14, 15, 8, 9, 10, and 11) to freely communicate with each other with said first server (2) and said second server (3) each having a server ID and an address (ID1 and ID2) for identifying itself; and with the controller (30, 20) having a controller ID and an address ID3 corresponding to the first server ID or an address ID4 corresponding to the second server ID, respectively such that the controller (30, 20) in the vehicle 50 will be connected either to first server (2) or to the second server (3) based on the address of the first server (2) or second server (3) respectively and program means for switching the address setting in the controller to permit the controller to selectively communicate with either the first or second server so as to operate either in a normal mode or in an overwrite mode.
