1. A modular system comprising a first component comprising an LED driver, a second component comprising a light engine and a third component comprising an interface module, the interface module comprising:
an input terminal for connecting to an output terminal of the LED driver;
an output terminal for connecting to an input terminal of the light engine;
a switch assembly for controlling a current received via the input terminal from the LED driver and provided to the light engine via the output terminal; and
a control unit having an input terminal for receiving a set point representing a desired illumination characteristic of the light engine, the control unit further having a processing unit for processing the set point and determining control signals for the switch assembly, wherein the control unit is configured to determine a current modulation scheme and a duty cycle modulation scheme for the LED driver, suitable for the light engine, based on the set point.
