The invention relates to a device for preheating at least one mould for a tyre heating press, which has a coupling for applying a heating medium to the mould. The translator is moveable in relation to the stator in a translator moving direction. As a result, the relationship between the delay setting data DATA and the delay amount Tpd can be linear, whereby the delay amount obtained by a first stage of the delay element can be widened. The method also includes mounting one or more mechanical flying birds on a rotating arm or arms attached to an upright support for simulating circling of the various decoy birds in selected locations to attract predators. For example, the method determines connectivity information for interacting with the remote device, assesses a language setting of the mobile endpoint device, and sets the language of the remote device by sending the language setting of the mobile endpoint device to the remote device using the connectivity information. In said method, a virtual laser cutting machine in a simulation program can be virtually operated with a set of values P0 from a parameter space P.
