Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To ensure an energy-efficient transmission of light signals between mutually and relatively movable elements of a machine. SOLUTION: For transmitting light signals between two of mutually and relatively movable elements (2, 3), a first element has a group of light sources (4) for generating the light signals, and a second element has at least one photoreceiver (6) for receiving the light signals. A unit for providing an input or block is configured to ensure that only some of the light sources (4) are input or blocked. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
