Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lamp operating device which is provided for operating one or more light sources and has a first interface unit, via which external control commands are transmitted to the lamp operating device. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for operating a corresponding lamp operating device.
  • luminaires are often used whose light effect can be changed depending on the wishes of a user of the lighting system.
  • a simple embodiment for example, there is the possibility of remotely switching on and off the lights and to vary their brightness.
  • the idea has recently prevailed to control the luminaires for brightness control by means of digital commands.
  • DALI Digital Addressable Lighting Interface
  • ECG electronic ballast
  • each lamp operating device is programmable and can execute control commands that are received via an interface. Like in the EP 0 534 710 A it is published possible to program the lamp operating devices via the same interface.
  • the publications US2006 / 0132065A1 and US7024119B1 also show the possibility to program the lamp operating devices via a second interface.
  • the international publication WO2005 / 117503A1 explains that DALI scene commands are programmed via the DALI interface.
  • the aforementioned DALI standard was primarily developed to provide brightness control of the light sources. Accordingly, a limited set of control commands is available, which relates in particular to the brightness control of the light sources. In the meantime, however, modern luminaires open up the possibility of setting other parameters. Thus, luminaires are known in which not only the total intensity of the emitted light can be influenced, but also the emission direction, the light distribution or the color of the emitted light. For example, a color control or color temperature control is made possible in a simple manner in that the luminaire has a plurality of differently colored light sources, wherein the light sources can each be individually adjusted in their brightness in order to achieve a mixed light in a desired hue.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a way to control even more modern lights, which offer a variety of settings, in the context of known lighting control systems.
  • the possibility should be opened to operate such lights within the known DALI standards.
  • the solution according to the invention is based on the idea of programming the lamp operating device in such a way that a more complex setting of luminaire-specific parameters is also made possible with the aid of the DALI standard or generally a command set for the digital activation of luminaires.
  • the lamp operating device according to the invention has a further interface unit for supplying programming information, the programming information is used to the behavior of the lamp operating device when driving the associated light source or light sources in dependence on the received control commands to adjust the available settings.
  • the available commands can now also be used to make previously not provided settings on the associated light sources, for example to set their color or emission characteristics.
  • the programming information relates in particular to the interpretation of the control unit with regard to the so-called scene commands available in the DALI standard. These commands are initially used to tell a luminaire to assume a specific, preset level of brightness. By programming the lamp operating device accordingly, however, an extended function is now assigned to these commands in such a way that hereby also other parameters of the lamp can be changed.
  • a set of specific parameter values can be stored which relate not only to the brightness of the light source but also to its color, its emission direction and / or its light distribution.
  • the lamp operating device has a memory for storing parameter sets which respectively define different settings of the light source (s) and are each assigned to a scene.
  • the lamp operating device accesses the memory and behaves in accordance with the parameter sets stored for this scene.
  • the invention proposes a method for operating a lamp operating device for one or more light sources, wherein the lamp operating device via a first interface unit according to a first communication protocol external control commands are transmitted to operate the light sources, and wherein the control of the light sources according to the received control commands takes place at least partially taking into account programming information which has been transmitted to the lamp operating device via a further interface unit according to a second communication protocol, and wherein the transmission of the control commands takes place according to the DALI standard, the programming information relating to the implementation of scene commands of the DALI standard, wherein the lamp operating device has a memory in which parameter sets are stored, which respectively define different settings of the light source (s) and are each assigned to a scene, and wherein at least a part of the parameters relates to a color control of the light source (s), a positioning and / or influencing the light emission of the light source (s).
  • the second interface unit can be designed, for example, for connection to a data transmission line which is separate from the control line and which makes it possible to connect a programming device, in particular a PC.
  • the second interface unit can represent, for example, a USB interface or an RS232 interface.
  • a wireless reception of the programming information via the second interface unit would be conceivable, which is then preferably designed in the form of a Bluetooth or infrared interface.
  • the first interface unit is configured to receive control commands in accordance with a first communication protocol, which may be commands in accordance with the DMX standard, for example.
  • the interface unit is designed to receive control commands in accordance with the DALI standard.
  • the programming information transmitted to the lamp operating device according to the invention can then be used to assign a new function to certain commands of the DALI standard. Depending on the type of light sources to be controlled, this means that individual DALI commands can now be used specifically for influencing certain parameters of the luminaire.
  • Fig. 1 shows a generally provided with the reference numeral 1 control system for operating lights, in which the inventively designed lamp operating devices are used. Shown in the present case are two lamp operating devices 10-1 and 10-2, which are each provided for driving a light source 20-1 or 20-2 associated therewith.
  • the light sources are radiators, which - as described in more detail below - offer special adjustment options, although the present invention is basically applicable to all types of luminaires.
  • the lamp operating devices 10-1, 10-2 are connected to a common control line 2, which forms a bus line of the control system 1. Via this control line 2 the lamp operating devices 10-1, 10-2 digital commands are transmitted, which are then implemented by the devices 10-1, 10-2 for driving the radiators 20-1 and 20-2.
  • a central control device 3 This may be a unit located in a central room of a building to be illuminated, which automatically and time-dependently transmits specific brightness commands or general control commands to the lamp operating devices 10-1, 10-2. Furthermore, a decentralized control of the lamp operating devices 10-1, 10-2 would also be possible, for which purpose manual input units 5 are arranged in the individual rooms. These units have a display and input elements 6 and 7, via which certain parameters of the light sources 20-1 and 20-2 can be changed manually.
  • Lighting systems enabling such control via digital commands are already known in the art. They open up an automated and comfortable setting of the various light sources and are therefore used in particular for illuminating larger buildings or facilities.
  • the generation and transmission of the digital control commands via the control line 2 is carried out according to a predetermined communication protocol, in particular the protocol according to the so-called.
  • DALI standard can be used. It is an interface definition developed by the leading lamp operating equipment developers to enable centralized control of distributed light sources.
  • the DALI standard defines a number of different digital commands that allow individual light sources to be addressed individually or in groups with the help of addresses assigned to them in order to cause them to switch on or off and in particular to change their brightness.
  • the light source 20-1 is an RGB emitter, which has three different-colored individual light sources 21, 22, 23 in the form of LEDs or generally of light-emitting semiconductor elements, which are individually adjustable in their intensity. By selecting the ratio of the light intensities of the three light sources 21, 22, 23 a variable in its color mixed light is generated, which is ultimately emitted by the radiator 20-1.
  • the commands available in the DALI standard have so far not allowed, in a simple way a Adjusting the color of the emitted light from the radiator 20-1. While it would be possible to assign each individual light source 21, 22, 23 each a separate address and then to control them individually, but this is a relatively complex solution to the problem.
  • a further disadvantage is that, accordingly, the lamp operating device 10-1 would have to be provided with a multiplicity of virtual addresses in order to carry out a color control.
  • the number of total addressable lights in the DALI standard is limited, this would result in a reduction of the total usable or controllable lights.
  • the second light source 20-2 which is a radiator, which is indeed provided with only a single light source 24, but in addition to an anchor point 25 is pivotable to adjust the light output in a desired direction. Also for this adjustment, which should be made by the lamp operating device 10-2, no special commands are provided in the DALI standard. Although it would be conceivable in this case, make the pivoting of the radiator 20-2 via an additional virtual address, but this would in turn connected to the disadvantages described above.
  • the invention provides that the lamp operating devices 10-1 and 10-2 are specially programmed to use the new settings for the light sources 20-1, 20-2 in the DALI standard. This will be explained below with reference to Fig. 2 will be explained in more detail, which shows the specific embodiment of the first lamp operating device 10-1.
  • the lamp operating device now generally provided with the reference numeral 10 initially has a control unit 11 which is provided for driving the three differently colored individual light sources 21, 22, 23 and has corresponding outputs 12, 13, 14. Via these outputs 12, 13, 14, the light sources 21, 22, 23 transmitted corresponding control signals to adjust them in the desired manner in their brightness.
  • the control takes place in accordance with the control commands, which are transmitted via the control line 2 to the lamp operating device 10.
  • the lamp operating device 10 has a first interface unit 15, which is connected via a corresponding terminal 16 to the control line 2.
  • the interface unit 15 is designed to receive data according to a first communication protocol-in the present case according to the DALI standard-and to forward it to the control unit 11, which then then carries out the control of the light sources.
  • a new interface unit 17 is now connected, which is connected via a second connection 18 to a further control line 9 and is designed to receive data in accordance with a second communication protocol.
  • These data are in particular programming information, which in turn is transmitted from the second interface unit 17 to the control unit 11.
  • this data may be provided by a programming device, e.g. come from a personal computer (PC) 8, over which in a programming mode, an individual programming of the lamp operating device 10 can be made.
  • PC personal computer
  • the interface unit 17 may be designed, for example, as a USB interface or as an RS232 interface in order to be connected to the PC 8 via the control line 9. However, a wireless communication between programming device or PC 8 and the interface 17 would also be conceivable. In this case, the interface unit 17 could also be implemented as a Bluetooth interface or as an infrared interface.
  • the programming information received via the interface unit 17 is now used to influence the behavior of the control unit 11 when driving the light sources 21, 22, 23 as a function of the control commands received via the first interface unit 15.
  • the programming information is used to tell the control unit 11, in which way to respond to the incoming control commands, so how they are to be interpreted in order to control the individual light sources 21, 22, 23.
  • the programming information transmitted according to the invention is used, in particular, to influence the meaning of the scene commands of the DALI standard in order to provide further control options open.
  • the scene commands of the DALI standard are originally intended to give the luminaires certain brightness values that they should adopt in certain situations.
  • such scenes are already stored in advance in the memory of the lamp operating device, in which case at a later time only the device is informed that it should behave in accordance with one of the stored scenes , According to the data stored in the memory, the lamp operating device then assumes a certain operating mode and drives the light sources with a desired brightness.
  • these scenes are assigned extended parameter sets which relate not only to the brightness of the light source but also to the other setting options and are stored in a memory 19 of the lamp operating device 10.
  • the memory 19 is part of the control unit 11, but of course it would also be possible to form this memory 19 as a separate element within the lamp operating device 10.
  • Fig. 3 shows, for example, the memory content of the arranged in the lamp operating device 10-1 for driving the RGB radiator 20-1 memory
  • Fig. 4 by way of example shows the parameter sets for driving the pivotable radiator 20-2.
  • each parameter set now provides information about the intensity of the light emitted by the emitter as a whole and about the proportions of the individual colors.
  • the first parameter set (scene 1) thus corresponds to a maximum brightness of the radiator, wherein the proportions of the different colors are the same, so that finally white mixed light is emitted.
  • scenes 2, 3 and 4 a maximum brightness is likewise provided, but this is achieved in each case by a single one of the three colors.
  • These scenes thus correspond to a maximum light output, each with a single color.
  • the scene 16, in turn, is assigned a parameter set according to which the total intensity is 50% of the maximum brightness, the red portion being opposite to the green and blue portions predominates. So a mixed light is given, which contains a reddish tone.
  • the angles ⁇ and ⁇ in this case define a pivoting of the radiator in space
  • the value " distribution " influences, for example, the size of the light cone.
  • the parameter set of scene 1 corresponds to a maximum light output at a non-displaced spotlight and a beam of maximum width.
  • the other scenes 2 to 16 in turn define different positions of the radiator and different widths of light cone.
  • the PC 8 can be separated from the lamp operating devices 10 and thus the programming mode can be terminated.
  • the lamp operating device 10 is thus connected exclusively to the control line 2 of the DALI bus with the operating devices 3 and 5 exclusively with the aid of the first interface unit 15.
  • These devices 3, 5 now have the ability to retrieve individual scenes in the preprogrammed lamp control units 10, for which purpose the scene selection commands available in the DALI standard are used. In this way, therefore, the individual settings that have been stored in the memory 19 can be retrieved to make settings of the radiator 20-1, 20-2.
  • the scene commands will be added in this case used not only to retrieve the preset brightness of a light sources, but instead to make a color selection or a direction setting of the spotlight.
  • One advantage of the solution according to the invention is that the classic DALI instruction set can still be used to control the various lamp operating devices.
  • Each luminaire unit newly added to the system can be individually programmed to adjust the luminaire-specific parameters as part of the scene commands. The control of the other lights already in the system is not affected by this. Accordingly, it is also possible to add completely novel luminaires in a simple manner and, nevertheless, to control them in a comfortable way.
  • other instruction sets could be used instead of the DALI instruction set for data transmission according to the first communication protocol. For example, a drive according to the DMX standard would also be possible.
