Embodiment Construction

[0024] figure 1A schematic diagram of a circuit arrangement according to the prior art is shown. The circuit arrangement comprises a lighting module 4 and an energy supply circuit 5 for supplying power to the lighting module 4 . As described at the outset, the lighting module 4 has a plurality of light sources D1 , D2 to Dn, which can be passed via the corresponding connection terminal A1 of the energy supply device 5 via the connection terminals A1 ′ and A2 ′ " and A2" to power. The lighting module has a coding resistor Rc which can be contacted and evaluated by the evaluation unit 2 arranged on the energy supply device 5 via specially designed terminals A3 ′ and A4 ′. Each brightness level is assigned a coding resistor, so that the brightness level of the lighting module 4 can be deduced by analyzing the resistance value and an appropriate supply current can be set. For this purpose, the evaluation unit 2 is connected to the regulation unit 3 . A power supply unit 1 , fo...
