ABSTRACT:
A method detects at least one property, such as cable length, of a multiconductor cable linked to a module by way of a logic and evaluation circuit within the module. The cable has at least one supply conductor connected by the module to a first potential and at least one signal conductor connected by the module to a second potential via a pull resistor. The supply conductor and the signal conductor will or will not be interconnected at the ends of the cable depending on whether given properties of the cable are present or not. The logic and evaluation circuit module detects the potential applied to the signal conductors and thereby determines the presence or absence of the cable properties to be determined.
