Data isolation
First Claim
1. In an electrical system for a truck or like vehicle comprising one or more power lines containing one or more power line data receivers and transmitters, the improvement wherein a power line data filter is incorporated in at least one power line carrying data, such that data is blocked from passing through the data filter at all times, said data filter isolating data on one segment of the power line from data on the other segment of the same power line, such that each isolated data segment has the ability to transmit and receive unique data independently from the other isolated data segment of the same power line.

Abstract
There is disclosed a system, method, and apparatus for a truck or like vehicle wherein a power source is split and/or divided into a plurality of branch power lines and wherein there is data and power transmitted over the power lines to selected systems and/or subsystems. An intelligent isolation module is provided for selectively transmitting, blocking, and/or altering data and/or power on any branch, sub-branch, and/or selected segment of a branch.

- 8. In an electrical system for a truck or like vehicle comprising one or more power lines containing one or more power line data transmitters and receivers, the improvement wherein an intelligent isolation module is incorporated into a power line that is carrying data, said intelligent isolation module containing a data filter that isolates data on one segment of the power line from the data on another segment on the same power line, said intelligent isolation module containing two or more power line data transmitters and receivers connected to the isolated data segments on the power line, said intelligent isolation module further containing data control circuitry connected to the power line data transmitters and receivers so as to allow data to be passed from one segment to another segment.
- 19. In an electrical system for a truck or like vehicle containing one or more power lines wherein data is being transmitted over one or more power lines of said vehicle, the improvement wherein one or more data filters are incorporated into said power line to isolate data on one segment of the power line from another segment of the same power line, wherein each filter has power line data transmitter and receiver on each side of the filter and data control circuitry, where said data control circuitry acts as a bi-directional data gate between the isolated power line segments on either side of said filter.
