METHOD OF DETECTING OPERATING STATES OF AN ELECTRICAL APPARATUS AND ELECTRICAL APPARATUS FOR DETECTING APPARATUS-SPECIFIC OPERATING STATES

摘要

A cordless mobile part (K-MT) having first means (K-AK1 ... K-AK4, SE1, SE2, ADW) for detecting selection features (SM1, SM2) of the operating states (BZ1 ... BZ4) and second means (K-ZS, K-νC) for controlling the function sequences specific to the mobile part detects the operating states (BZ1 ... BZ4) specific to the mobile part - a first operating state, 'operating at an enhanced feature charging station' (BZ1), a second operating state, 'operating at a standard charging station' (BZ2), a third operating state, 'operating on a headset fitting' (BZ3) and a fourth operating state 'operating as a hand-held apparatus' (BZ4) - rapidly and reliably in that the second means (K-ZS, K-νC) connected to the first means (K-AK1 ... K-AK4, SE1, SE2, ADW) are designed such that, according to a decision tree (ESB) with a plurality of decision levels (ESE1, ESE2) and level-inherent branching points (VZS1, VZS2), the same selection feature (SM1, SM2) is requested at all the branching points (VZS1, VZS2) of each decision level (ESE1, ESE2).
