Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a luminaire having at least one light source and at least one digital multiplexing (DMX) operating device for controlling the
  • a DMX operating device For controlling lights or the light sources arranged in the luminaires, a DMX operating device has hitherto often been arranged in the luminaire, for example, that receives corresponding DMX commands or control signals via a bus and then correspondingly controls the light sources likewise arranged in the luminaire.
  • DMX is a communication standard via which information about the controller can be transmitted to luminaires, for example.
  • a pure unidirectional communication is provided. That that, for example, from a central data to a corresponding DMX control gear can be transmitted, but there is no possibility that the DMX control gear sends data back to the control center.
  • control center send appropriate feedback to the control center in any way. This may be, for example, an already at the control center
  • Manufacture assigned unique source address over which a initial identification becomes possible. Likewise, it is not possible to confirm the receipt of an operating address.
  • RDM Remote Device Management
  • a luminaire with at least one light source and at least one DMX operating device for controlling the light source is proposed, wherein the luminaire is assigned at least one expansion module that is designed to receive RDM commands or control signals from a bus on the
  • Extension module arrive to convert into DMX commands or control signals.
  • the DMX operating device is connected to the expansion module.
  • This expansion module now provides the advantage that a luminaire can be operated with a DMX operating device, also in conjunction with the RDM standard, since a corresponding conversion from RDM to DMX is performed by the expansion module.
  • the expansion module and the DMX operating device each have an address, wherein the address of the expansion module is used to identify the light in the bus and the address of the DMX operating device is used so that the expansion module can identify the DMX control gear.
  • Extension module can be designed to convert the address assigned to the expansion module into the address assigned to the DMX operating device.
  • the expansion module can communicate bidirectionally with a central office and accordingly a corresponding address assignment is possible.
  • the luminaire has a housing in which the light source and the DMX operating device are arranged. This can be the
  • Expansion module can be arranged either in the housing or outside, wherein in the event that the expansion module is arranged outside, this can have its own housing.
  • DMX / Alternate Start Code (ASC) operating device is designed and the
  • Expansion module is adapted to convert DMX / ASC commands or control signals that arrive from the DMX / ASC operating device to the expansion module, into RDM commands or control signals.
  • the expansion module is also provided that the expansion module
  • Figure 2 is a schematic representation of a lamp according to the invention according to a second embodiment.
  • FIG. 1 shows schematically a first embodiment of a luminaire 1 according to the invention.
  • the luminaire 1 in this case has a light source 2, a DMX operating device 3 and an expansion module 4, which are all arranged in a common housing 5 of the lamp 1.
  • the DMX operating device 3 is provided here for controlling the light source 2 and is in contrast to previous ones
  • This expansion module 4 which is now connected to a bus via which corresponding RDM commands arrive at the expansion module 4, is configured to convert the incoming RDM commands into corresponding DMX commands implement and passed on to the DMX control gear 3.
  • FIG. 2 now shows a second embodiment of a luminaire 1 according to the invention, which in turn has a light source 2, a DMX operating device 3 and an expansion module 4, which respectively correspond to those in FIG.
  • the only difference from Figure 1 consists in the fact that the lamp 1 has a housing 6, in which only the light source 2 and the DMX control gear 3 are arranged.
  • the expansion module 4 is arranged outside the housing 6, it being possible in particular for the expansion module 4 to have its own housing.
  • FIG. 2 a simple possibility of already existing luminaires, which hitherto have only one DMX operating device 3 in order to expand the ROM functionality, without the need for a complex transformation of the housing 6 of the luminaire 1 becomes necessary.
  • the expansion module 4 is now also of particular use in addressing the luminaires 1 in a larger system. It is thus provided, for example, that the expansion module 4 is already assigned a unique ID defined in RDM during manufacture, by means of which the expansion module 4 can be unambiguously identified.
  • the expansion module 4 it is then possible for the expansion module 4 to communicate with a central station in accordance with known allocation methods in order to obtain an operating address corresponding to the arrangement of the luminaire 1 in the system.
  • this operating address or individual address via which the luminaire 1 is driven from the outside is then stored only in the expansion module 4.
  • the DMX operating device 3 has only one or more simple base addresses, for example 1, 2 or 3, wherein the expansion module 4 implements the conversion of the RDM operating address into the base addresses used by the DMX operating device 3.
  • the base addresses may be, for example, the number of light sources 2 occurring in a luminaire 1.
  • DMX control gear So far, only standard-compliant DMX control gear has been considered, which only allow unidirectional communication. In these, the bidirectional communication between the control panel and the lamp thus only between the control panel and the extension module of the lamp. Meanwhile, however, there are also DMX control gear that allow the use of so-called Alternate Star Codes (ASC).
  • ASC Alternate Star Codes
  • the expansion module is designed to convert corresponding RDM commands or control signals into corresponding DMX / ASC commands or control signals. In addition, however, the expansion module also converts DMX / ASC commands that arrive from the DMX / ASC driver to the expansion module into RDM commands.
  • Control of the light sources is possible. Due to these connection options, the control options of the luminaire are being expanded overall.
