Abstract
A device for transferring measured values obtained by a sensing device to a processing device for processing these measured values is described. The described transfer device is provided with an interface between the sensing device and the processing device. The interface device has a memory in which the measured valued obtained by the sensing device are stored together with the respective time points at which the measured values were obtained. Actual values of the variable measured by the sensing device together with their measurement times are thus available to the processing device under all circumstances with a minimum effort. Other actual values can be obtained at times before, between or after the respective time points at which the measured values were obtained by interpolation, extrapolation or other estimation methods from the measured values and associated time points stored in the interface.
