Method and system for switching between subnetwork operation and full network operation
First Claim
1. A method for changing over a serially networked system (100), in particular a serial databus system, from subnetwork operation (T), in which at least one node (22, 28) and/or at least one user (32, 38) of the system (100) is in a state of reduced current consumption and is not addressed and/or not activated by the signal level (40, 42, 44) of the data traffic on the system (100), to full network operation (G), in which all the nodes (20, 22, 24, 26, 28) and/or all the users (30, 32, 34, 36, 38) of the system (100) are addressed and/or activated by the signal level (46, 48) of the data traffic on the system (100), characterized in that the system (100) is changed over from subnetwork operation (T) to full network operation (G) through the detection of at least one defined, especially continuous and/or especially symmetrical signal level pattern (62, 64) in the data traffic on the system (100).

Abstract
In order further to develop a method for changing over a serially networked system (100), in particular a serial databus system, from subnetwork operation (T), in which at least one node (22, 28) and/or at least one user (32, 38) of the system (100) is in a state of reduced current consumption and is not addressed and/or not activated by the signal level (40, 42, 44) of the data traffic on the system (100), to full network operation (G), in which all the nodes (20, 22, 24, 26, 28) and/or all the users (30, 32, 34, 36, 38) of the system (100) are addressed and/or activated by the signal level (46, 48) of the data traffic on the system (100), together with a corresponding system (100) in such a way that the nodes (22, 28) and/or the users (32, 38) in the network, i.e. on the databus (10), may be simply yet effectively woken, it is proposed that the system (100) be changed over from subnetwork operation (T) to full network operation (G) through the detection of at least one defined, especially continuous and/or especially symmetrical signal level pattern (62, 64) in the data traffic on the system (100).

- 4. A serially networked system (100), which is intended to be changed over from subnetwork operation (T), in which at least one node (22, 28) and/or at least one user (32, 38) of the system (100) is in a state of reduced current consumption and cannot be addressed and/or activated by the signal level (40, 42, 44) of the data traffic on the system (100), to full network operation (G), in which all the nodes (20, 22, 24, 26, 28) and/or all the users (30, 32, 34, 36, 38) of the system (100) may be addressed and/or activated by the signal level (46, 48) of the data traffic on the system (100), characterized in that the changeover from subnetwork operation (T) to full network operation (G) takes place in the event of the detection of at least one defined, especially continuous and/or especially symmetrical signal level pattern (62, 64) in the data traffic on the system (100).
