Converter for Signals between a safety Device and a Safety Control Device for a Vehicle
First Claim
1. A device for transferring signals between a safety device (300) and a universal safety control device (100) for a vehicle, the device comprisinga converter (200) and a safety control device (100), wherein the converter (200) and the safety control device (100) can be connected at a control device interface (200.1) and at least one type of safety devices (300.2) can be connected at least one safety device interface (200.2) and wherein the converter (200) converts a signal of the safety control device (100) into a signal, which is suitable for the respectively connected type of safety device (300.2), to the respective safety device interface (200.2), wherein the converter (200) is embodied so that it detects a condition at the safety device interface (200.2), such as a diagnostics condition signal and converts it in a condition predefined at the control device interface (200.1).

Abstract
Disclosed is a converter (200) for signals between a safety device (300) and a universal safety control device (100) for a vehicle. At the converter (200) the safety control device (100) can be connected at a control device interface (200.1) and at least one type of safety devices (300.2) can be connected at at least one safety device interface (200.2) and wherein the converter (200) converts a signal of the safety control device (100) into a signal, which is suitable for the respectively connected type of safety device (300.2), to the respective safety device interface (200.2). It is proposed to embody the converter (200) such that it detects a condition at the safety device interface (200.2), in particular a diagnostics condition signal and converts it into a condition accordingly predefined at the control device interface (200.1), preferably in a manner which does not require an adaptation of the control device or of its software.
