In a drive system and a method for actuating a drive system having an electric motor and an electric device, which has an electronic circuit feeding the electric motor, the electric device includes a module, the electric device, e.g., the electronic circuit, being able to be connected to a processor, e.g., an actuation PC, for a data exchange, e.g., for actuating the drive system. The module is inserted into a depression, e.g., a recess, of the electric device, and the module including operable switches, e.g., DIP switches, and a memory for storing first parameters.
