Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a device for controlling multiple actuators with a controller and multiple actuators controllable by the controller. At least several groups of actuators are individually controllable by the controller and to each actuator or each group of actuators is assigned at least one memory storage unit, which can store at least one parameter for controlling one or more actuators. At least two parameters are assigned to each actuator or each group of actuators, with one position of the actuator(s) being assigned to each of the parameters.
