Abstract

In a method for initializing a bus system, and a bus system having a master module and serially disposed bus subscribers, the master module asks the bus subscribers to log into the master module. After logging into the master module, each bus subscriber waits a predefined period of time to see whether a further bus subscriber logs into the master module, and closes the bus system if no further bus subscriber logs into the master module within the predefined period of time.
