Abstract

An configuration and a method are described for providing data for characterization of various units on a bus system. The configuration and method are distinguished by the fact that some of the data which characterize a unit are stored in memory elements having a variable content, and in that the rest of the data which characterize the unit are defined by hardware. In consequence, the complexity for providing the data which characterize a unit can be reduced to a minimum.
