Abstract
Method and device for triggering a pressure medium delivery arrangement, in particular a pump, of a brake system. The triggering signal for the triggering or regulation of the pump is formed dependent upon at least one pressure differential. In one embodiment, at least one of three different pressure differentials is used for forming the triggering signal. For this purpose, the brake circuit pressure, the master brake cylinder path, and the master brake cylinder pressure are determined and used in the formation of target values. The pump or the pump motor is then regulated using the particular pressure differentials and/or is activated through a pilot control value.
