Abstract

The present invention is directed to a combustion-operated setting device for driving fastening elements such as nails, bolts and pins into a substrate, with a setting mechanism comprising a driving piston (15) which is supported to be displaceable in a guide, and with an electronic monitoring device for monitoring the status of the setting device. At least one sensor array (21, 22) is arranged at the guide for generating a measurement data pattern which can be evaluated by the monitoring device.
