Abstract
A method for initializing a rotation angle measuring system. The method includes setting a predefined initialization angular position of a rotor unit relative to a stator unit, reading an actual partial rotation count value from a data storage, wherein the actual partial rotation count value indicates a number of partial rotations (360°/N) of the rotor unit relative to the stator unit, where N=2(n=1, 2, 3 . . . ), determining an actual subsegment value from the actual partial rotation count value, wherein the actual subsegment value indicates in which (360°/N) subsegment of a full rotation the rotor unit is located relative to the stator unit, and increasing or decreasing the actual subsegment value stored in the data storage if the actual subsegment value does not match a target subsegment value which is assigned to the predefined initialization angular position.
