Abstract
A lighting module may receive control signal having a first control scheme, the lighting module including a driver including at least one channel; and a control module; where the control module translates the received first control scheme into a predetermined second control scheme, when the first control scheme is different from the predetermined second control scheme; wherein the control module generates an identity voltage correlated with the received first control scheme; wherein the control module outputs to the driver a driver control signal including the predetermined second control scheme, and the identity voltage; and wherein the driver generates a driver output based on the identity voltage and the driver control signal.
