Abstract: The invention relates to a linear motor system, in particular a transport system, e.g. a multi-carrier, having a plurality of or for a plurality of carriers, and having a guide track for the carriers, wherein, at the guide track, a first magnetic sensor for determining a magnetic field with respect to a first spatial direction and for outputting a first sensor signal and a second magnetic sensor for determining a magnetic field with respect to a second spatial direction and for outputting a second sensor signal are provided, wherein the control device is configured to determine position information relating to a carrier on the basis of the first sensor signal and to determine identification information relating to a carrier on the basis of the second sensor signal.
