1. A system comprising:
a device including a transmitter which transmits a scanning signal; and
at least one actuator assigned to the device, the at least one actuator including a processing unit, the processing unit having
an arrangement which receives the scanning signal,
wherein, if the scanning signal matches a predetermined reference signal, the processing unit transmits a contact signal to
the device, the contact signal being transmitted after a predetermined time delay period, from a receipt of the scanning signal,
expires, and
wherein the device assigns a further predetermined time delay period to an unassigned actuator in order to train the unassigned
actuator, the further predetermined time delay period characterizing the unassigned actuator.
