A surgical flux transmission conduit for operationally coupling a surgical flux supply pathway with a surgical flux delivery instrument to supply flux from the surgical flux supply pathway, the surgical flux transmission conduit may include a data signal transmission pathway, a surgical flux transmission pathway, and a connector interface including a data signal transmission connector and a surgical flux transmission connector. A system for supplying flux may include a plurality of flux supply pathways, a plurality of remotely-controllable kinematic flux delivery structures, and a control system receiving first data identifying which of the remotely-controllable kinematic flux delivery structures is operationally coupled to which of the flux supply pathways and receiving second data identifying which of the remotely-controllable kinematic flux delivery structures is operationally coupled to which of a plurality of kinematic support structures. A system for detecting an operative condition of a surgical instrument of a teleoperated surgical system may include a surgical instrument comprising a housing for coupling the surgical instrument in an installed position at a patient side cart of a teleoperated surgical system, the housing comprising a connector feature and a sensing device associated with the patient side cart and disposed to detect a presence of the flux transmission conduit in a flux connection state of the surgical instrument.La présente invention concerne un conduit de transmission de flux chirurgical permettant de raccorder fonctionnellement une voie d'alimentation en flux chirurgical à un instrument d'administration de flux chirurgical en vue de fournir un flux à partir de la voie d'alimentation en flux chirurgical, le conduit de transmission de flux chirurgical pouvant comprendre une voie de transmission de signal de données, une voie de transmission de flux chirurgical et une interface de raccord comprenant un connecteur de transmission de signal de
