#CMT# #/CMT# The control unit has a processing unit (2) comprising a programmable control unit (5), and an identification data acquisition unit (10) e.g. biometric sensor such as digital fingerprint sensor, providing identification data of an operator (4) to the control unit (5). A data base stores administrator identification data, and the control unit (5) compares the identification data of the operator with the administrator identification data in order to recognize if the operator is authorized and to transmit the change of outlet position to a relay unit (3), if the operator is authorized. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a method for configuring a control unit. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Intelligent control unit for industrial control console e.g. push button, switch, selector and coil turret. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The programmable control unit compares the identification data of operator with the administrator identification data to recognize if the operator is authorized, thus permitting to secure the utilization of the intelligent control unit without utilizing a mechanical lock with key for a manoeuvre unit, while offering a possibility of utilizing a single control unit for different modes of operation. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of an intelligent control unit. 2 : Processing unit 3 : Relay unit 4 : Operator 5 : Programmable control unit 10 : Acquisition unit. |
