Method and device for function selection of a control unit
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for selecting a function to be implemented at a terminal of a control unit, the method comprising the steps of:
- selecting the function to be implemented from one of at least two different functions by using a predefinable code for providing an implemented function; and
suppressing other ones of the at least two different functions, wherein the predefinable code includes information pertaining to a waiting time corresponding to a period of time after which a switch is made from the function to be implemented to a further function of the at least two different functions, the further function being suppressed during the period of time;
wherein suppressing the at least two different functions is done without resetting any hardware arrangement.

Abstract
A method and a device for selecting a function which is implemented at a terminal of the device. The device includes a processor and a first function path over which a first function is implemented, and includes at least one other function path over which another function is implemented. The function paths run over at least two different terminals of the processor, and the at least two function paths are connected and are routed directly to the single terminal of the device. The selection of the function to be implemented is made by a predefinable code, and the at least second function is suppressed.

5. A device for selecting a function to be implemented at a terminal, the device comprising:
-
a processor; a first function path for implementing a first function; and at least another function path for implementing at least another function; wherein the first function path and the at least another function path run over at least two other different terminals of the processor, the first function path and the at least another function path being connected and being routed directly to the terminal, wherein; the first function is selected for implementation by using a predefinable code for providing an implemented function, and the predefinable code includes information pertaining to a waiting time corresponding to a period of time after which a switch is made from the first function to be implemented to the other function, the other function being suppressed during the period of time; wherein the other function is suppressed without resetting any hardware arrangement. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
