Abstract
The invention relates to an installation for operating seat modules (12) equipped with an assembly of actuators (30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44) each intended for adjusting a seat element (22, 24, 26, 28). It comprises a control unit (16) suited to each seat module (12). This control unit (16) comprises means (62) for the acquisition of variables representing the functioning state of the seat module. A central unit (18) for the management of the seat modules (12) is connected to the control unit (16). It comprises means (96) for the transmission of information toward the control units (16). Each control unit (16) comprises means (66) for the transmission of variables representing the functioning state of the associated seat module toward the central management unit (18). Use in aircraft seats.
