Abstract
A device arrangement for a network includes a plurality of devices that can be actuated electronically by a user. Each device has a name memory in which is stored a device name uniquely assigned to the device, to enable the particular device to be uniquely actuated within the network. The device name stored in the name memory can be individually selected and/or changed by the user by a mobile input unit that has a short-range electronic data link to the device to be selected.
