FUNCTION CONNECTION UNIT COMPRISING A SERVICE MODULE
First Claim
1. A function connection unit for connecting functional modules, comprising:
- a plurality of functional module terminals configured to connect to the functional modules and to communicate according to a first communication protocol; and
a service module comprising a service terminal configured to connect to at least one functional module terminal of the plurality of functional module terminals to communicate according to the first communication protocol, wherein the service module comprises a communication terminal to communicate according to a second communication protocol;
wherein the service module is configured to supply parameter data available at the communication terminal according to the second communication protocol to the service terminal according to the first communication protocol; and
wherein the function connection unit is configured to parameterize at least one functional module based at least in part on the parameter data.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a function connection unit for connecting functional modules. The functional connection unit includes a plurality of functional module terminals configured to connect to the functional modules and to communicate according to a first communication protocol, and a service module that includes a service terminal configured to connect to at least one functional module terminal of the plurality of functional module terminals to communicate according to the first communication protocol. The service module also includes a communication terminal to communicate according to a second communication protocol. The service module is configured to supply parameter data available at the communication terminal according to the second communication protocol to the service terminal according to the first communication protocol. The function connection unit is configured to parameterize at least one functional module based at least in part on the parameter data.
