          Appeal No. 1998-2864                                                        
          Application No. 08/338,235                                                  

          display alarm conditions to an operator) and coupling the                   
          portable unit to the alarm providing means for responding to                
          receipt of an alarm-condition signal in order to display the                
          alarm condition (again, in Kobayashi, the display of the portable           
          unit 25 will indicate an alarm condition since an abnormality of            
          the vehicle system will be displayed to the operator and any                
          abnormality is an alarm condition).                                         

                                     CONCLUSION                                       

               We have sustained the rejection of claims 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 16,           
          17 and 19 under 35 U.S.C. 103 but we have not sustained the                 
          rejection of claims 6, 14 and 15 under 35 U.S.C. 103.                       
               Accordingly, the examiner’s decision is affirmed-in-part.              










                                        -16–
