Title:
UTILIZING INCREASING WIDTH FOR IDENTIFICATION VOLTAGES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001053900
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method and system is disclosed by which identification codes for a plurality of systems are utilized to provide a control with an indication of a particular characteristic of the particular system. The characteristic is assigned with an identifying variable, in a disclosed embodiment voltage, which increases. As this variable increases, possible errors due to system features will also increase. Thus, the possibility of the control misreading an identification code due to the error increases. To address this increasing possibility, the distance between adjacent variables also increases as the variables themselves increase. In a preferred embodiment the distance is increased proportionally.
