1. A method for operating an electronic control system having:

  • a controller, an actuator and at least one sensora sensor board for reading data which is detected by the sensor, the sensor board has a memory for storing actuator-specific data andan interface between the sensor board and the controller for transmitting the data which is stored in the sensor board to the controller, wherein said method comprising comprises;

    starting the controller;

    transmitting the actuator-specific data which is stored in the sensor board to the controller;

    comparing the actuator-specific data which is transmitted from the sensor board with actuator-specific data which is stored in the controller;

    switching the controller to a normal operating mode when the actuator-specific data which is transmitted from the sensor board corresponds to the actuator-specific data which is stored in the controller;

    starting a training process when the actuator-specific data which is transmitted from the sensor board does not correspond to the actuator-specific data which is stored in the controller, said training method comprising the following sub-steps;

    storing the actuator-specific data which is transmitted from the sensor board in the controller;

    configuring the controller in accordance with the actuator-specific data which is transmitted from the sensor board; and

    switching to the normal operating mode of the controller.
