Abstract: A drive device for an electric motor is provided. The drive device decides based on signals it receives from outside whether it is monitoring an actual value of the electric motor with respect to the adherence to an actual value condition (monitoring operation). During monitoring operation, the drive device causes the motor to be disconnected from a power supply if the actual value does not adhere to the actual value condition. Via a communication connection, the drive device provides a drive control unit with first information, which reveals whether the drive device is in the monitoring operating mode. The drive device provides the drive control unit with second information, which reveals what the actual value condition is. Based on the first information, the drive control unit examines whether the drive device is in the monitoring operating mode. If this is the case, the drive control unit, based on the second information, determines what the actual value condition is.

Abstract: The invention relates to a module for reproducing a transmitter signal (xactE). A control device (1) is coupled to a driving device (4a) for controlling a machine while being coupled to the module (5, 5?) via a data bus (7) for exchanging data. A reproduced transmitter signal (xactEn) is determined from a reference value (xdes) that is predefined by the control device with the aid of the module (5, 5?). The module (5, 5?) is logically coupled to the control device (1) via the data bus (7) in such a way that the module (5, 5?) is projected in the same way as the driving device (4a) from the perspective of the control device (1). The inventive module (5, 5?) for reproducing a transmitter signal (xactE) thus makes it possible to project, start, and adjust the dynamics of the machine in a simple manner.

The system then determines from the movement profile coefficients of polynomial functions and a position setpoint variable based on the coefficients. The travel movement of the machine element is executed in response to the determined position setpoint variable.
