The invention relates to a system comprising at least one orthopedic device having at least one joint (4) and a resistance device associated with the respective joint (4), a control device and an actuator being associated with said resistance device. The joint can be moved or the resistance can be adjusted against a bending and/or stretching movement via the actuator. The system further comprises a remote control unit (6) which is coupled to the control device and via which the resistance behavior can be varied, wherein data for the remote control unit (6) are stored in the orthopedic device, the remote control (6) can be configured with said data and the data are transmitted via a pairing process to the remote control unit (6).
