Abstract
A sensor device having an incremental encoder and a measuring sensor generating a measuring signal is assigned to two control devices. A synchronization device generates a synchronization signal. A conditioned first measuring signal is generated in the first control device as a function of the measuring signal. A conditioned second measuring signal is generated in the second control device as a function of the measuring signal. The value of the conditioned first measuring signal at a predefined time after the reception of the synchronization signal in the first control device is transmitted to the second control device. The second control device synchronizes the conditioned second measuring signal as a function of the values of the conditioned first and second measuring signals that the signals have at the predefined time after the respective reception of the synchronization signal in the first and second control devices.
