Abstract
An apparatus of an automatic gearbox for generating a startup signal according to which starting of an engine, which interacts with the gearbox, is made possible or prevented. The apparatus having a position sensor (1) for detecting the position of a gearshift lever of the an automatic gearbox, and the position sensor (1) measuring distance and providing a measurement signal based on the distance measured. A transducer device (2) converts the measurement signal, from the position sensor, into a digital signal. A hardware circuit (5) generates a startup signal from the digital signal provided by the transducer device.
