Claim 11:
12. A method of setting up a steering control system that is adapted to control steering of a multi-unit vehicle having a plurality of vehicle parts movably connected to one another and a plurality of steerable axle units, the method comprising:
a modular arrangement of a first axle control unit in conjunction with a first steerable axle unit; and
a modular arrangement of at least one second axle control unit in conjunction with at least one second steerable axle unit;
wherein the axle control units are configured as exchangeable with one another with respect to a connection of each of the axle control units to a data line; and
wherein a central control module is configured that exchanges steering information with the axle control units over the data line; wherein on the putting into operation of the steering control system, the axle control units are operated independently of one another and independently of their number in that they communicate with the central control module over the common data line, wherein the central control module has a software-based vehicle-specific movement model that is configured to determine axle-specific desired steering angle data for outputting to each of the axle control units on a basis of the vehicle-specific movement model, with the vehicle-specific movement model being based on vehicle data, the vehicle data comprising dimensions and/or mass of the vehicle.
