Furthermore, the system of the present invention has an interface between the memory device and the at least one control unit so that the at least one control unit reads the information stored in the memory device. The control unit processes the information read from the memory device such that the information becomes verified with default parameters of the system after read-out-thereof. In case the information includes parameters, which do not match in a predefined manner with the default parameters, the control unit is arranged to either automatically, adjust the system in accordance with the information received from the memory device or to prevent start-up of the electric machine or the entire system.
