Claim 26:
27. A method of operating a linear motor system,
wherein the linear motor system comprises a plurality of carriers and a guide track for the carriers,
wherein the method comprises:
determining a magnetic field with respect to a first spatial direction using a first magnetic sensor arranged at the guide track;
determining a magnetic field with respect to a second spatial direction using a second magnetic sensor arranged at the guide track;
determining position information relating to a carrier on a basis of the magnetic field with respect to the first spatial direction;
determining identification information relating to a carrier on a basis of the magnetic field with respect to the second spatial direction; and
determining the identification information based on a spatial direction of the magnetic field on whose basis no position information is determined.
