CONTROL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SUCH A CONTROL DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a control device (3) for an electric load (6) and to a corresponding method for operating such a control device (3), said control device (3) being designed as an insert module for inserting into an insert shaft. Depending on the design, the insert shaft is provided with or without a storing device for storing configuration data and/or operating parameters of the control device or the electric load (6). The control device (3) is characterized by the following features: a) the control device (3) has first means for checking whether a storing device (12) is present or not, b) the control device (3) has second means for implementing the function of reading the parameters and data for operating the control device (3) if a storing device (12) is present, said parameters and data being stored in the storing device, and not carrying out a start-up if a storing device (12) is not present, and c) the function of not carrying out a start-up when a storing device (12) is not present can be deactivated.
