Abstract
A method for detecting the motion and position state of a component of an inductive electric load. The component can be moved between two end positions by magnetic interaction, in which the total waveform of the drive current is divided into a plurality of states. By evaluating these individual states, comprehensive error diagnostics and a setting of operating parameters of the inductive electric load to operating conditions are possible.
