<p>A device for determining the condition of an apparatus which can be in a first and a second condition and is provided with auxiliary contacts (CAO1,...CAF1...) providing binary condition indications according to the current apparatus condition. The device includes at least one auxiliary contact (CAO1) providing a condition signal '1' when the apparatus is in the first condition, and at least one auxiliary contact or second condition auxiliary contact (CAF1) providing a condition signal '1' when the apparatus is in the second condition, as well as a programmed microcontroller (MP) receiving, at its inputs, the condition signals from the auxiliary contacts (CAO1,...CAF1...), as well as commands (00, OF) requesting a change from one condition to the other, and outputting, inter alia, signals which are representative of the condition (PO, PF) and/or availability (MPF) of the apparatus, and of the condition and/or availability (MACAO, MACAF, MFCA) of the auxiliary contacts, the signal being produced by a programme for implementing an apparatus continuity and use security strategy.</p> |
