The result is that the configuration is relatively resistant to failure as long as one of the generators produces a problem and the other one will immediately take over. : His generators, other modes, other detectors, other problems, and other switches should not be excluded. According to an embodiment, the configuration is configured to further include a second J to connect the second generator to a second power source by further including: the electrical problem is at least the first generator One or a portion of the first eve or at least one of the first couplings is one of the modes, the first fault is the second mode, and the other one in the mode is I33318.doc 200926096 In the first mode, the first generator is activated, which means that the first generator is connected to the first power source, such as a voltage source or a current source. Once the detector detects a problem with the first generator, the switch switches the configuration from the first mode to the second mode. In this case, the first generator is a primary generator, the first mode is a primary mode, the second generator is a standby generator and the second mode is a standby mode. In the first embodiment, the first power source and the second power source s' are configured to be a main power source. The second power source is a battery power source. Preferably, the battery power source is a rechargeable battery power source that can be charged by the primary power source in the first mode. According to an embodiment, a configuration is defined by the first generator and the second generator, the first generator comprising a first group of light emitting diodes, the second generator comprising a second group of light emitting diodes . The light-emitting diodes may be basic light-emitting diodes or organic light-emitting diodes, etc., and other types of light-emitting diodes are not excluded. According to an embodiment, a configuration is defined by the first and second groups, the first and second groups being interlaced and/or stacked. For example, the interlaced groups are located in a same plane and/or adjacent to each other. The stacks are located on different planes and/or on top of each other. Therefore, when stacked, an upper group needs to be transparent to allow light from a lower group to pass through, or some type of interlacing is also required. According to an embodiment, a configuration is defined by the first group and the second group, the first group comprising a first number of series circuits powered by a main power source, 133318.doc -9- 200926096 the second group includes A second number of series circuits powered by a battery power source, the first number being greater than the second amount. Typically a primary power source produces a voltage that is higher than a battery power source. To avoid a converter, the first number of series circuits powered by the main power source must be greater than the second number of series circuits powered by the battery power source. A second aspect of the present invention provides an apparatus comprising a configuration for displaying a first message in the first mode and a second message in the second mode in accordance with the present invention.

The other of the formulas Generally, the device may need to be connected to the first power source and may include the second power source 133318.doc 200926096. A third aspect of the present invention provides a method for producing light, comprising: a first step of generating a first light in a first mode, - a first generating a second light in a second mode a second step, - a third step of detecting a problem of the first and second steps, and - a response to a detected problem switching from one of the modes to the other of the modes The fourth step. The apparatus and embodiments of the method are in accordance with such embodiments of the configuration. One understanding can be that a relatively preventable configuration should have at least parallel generators. A basic idea is that different generators should produce different light in different modes and respond to a problem with one of the detected generators, which should be switched to another mode. The present invention solves the problem of providing a configuration that produces light in a manner that is relatively resistant to failure. A further advantage of the invention is that its hardware can be minimized. These and other bears of the present invention become apparent and clarified with reference to the embodiments described herein. <Embodiment> In Fig. 1, a device 1 according to the present invention is shown to include a configuration 2-5 in accordance with the present invention. The configuration 2-5 includes a first generator 2 for generating a first light in a first mode. Such a first generator 2 can be a 133318.doc 200926096 light source or a first light holder or the like to be provided with a first light source. The configuration includes a second generator for generating a second light in a second mode, the 帛-generator 3 can be a second light source or - a light source or the like to be provided. In the _th mode, the first generator 2 means that the first generator 2 is connected to a power source such as a voltage source or a current source or the like. In this second mode, the second generator 3 is activated, which means that the second generator 3 is connected to the respective power sources. ❹ The configuration 2·5 further includes a detector 4 for detecting the problem of the generators 2-3. The problem may be, for example, one of the currents flowing through one of the generators or at least one of the currents flowing from the power source to the one of the generators. And/or may be, for example, a change in one of the generators 2-3 (at least a portion of 5, 丨, Λ ^ m) or a voltage value of the power source and/or May be, for example, a change in one of the power values of the power used by W (at least a portion of) the generators 23 and/or may be, for example, one of the generators 2_3 (at least: Or a change in the temperature value of one of the power sources and/or may be, for example, considered to be a problem in the modes, etc. The configuration 2-5 includes - for response - the detected problem will The switch is switched from one of the modes to the other switch 5 of the modes. The result is that once one of the generators 2_3 has a problem, the other will take over, and the configuration 2-5 is relatively capable. Preventing malfunctions. The switch 5 may comprise one or more mechanical switching elements and / or one or more Electrical switching element and/or one or more types of switching elements. 133318.doc 12. 200926096 The first generator 2 can be connected to a first via a first coupling and/or via at least a portion of the switch 5 A power source 6, such as a main power source, can be connected to the second power source 7, such as a battery power source, via a second consuming and/or via at least a portion of the switch $. The problem may be that at least a portion of the first generator 2 or at least a portion of the first power source 6 or at least a portion of the first coupling is faulty. In this case, the switch 5 must be switched from the first mode. Go to the second module and switch back (for example, responding to another detection and/or responding to an automatic action, such as one-time clock input and/or responding to a user action, etc.) or the detector 4 and the switch 5 can In addition, or in combination, the switch 5 can be integrated or integrated with the generators 2_3 or the power sources 6_7. The detectors 4 are consuming more of the generators 2_3 and/or Coupled to one or more of the couplings and/or coupled One or more of the power supplies 6-7 are shown. In Fig. 2, a top view of a first φ embodiment of one of the first and second generators 2_3 of the configuration 2_5 is shown. The generator 2 includes a a first group of light emitting diodes 200-249, the second generator 3 comprising a second group of light emitting diodes 300-3 04. In this case, the first group includes five subgroups, each having ten a series of light-emitting diodes, the second group comprising five sub-groups each having one light-emitting diode. Other numbers of sub-groups and light-emitting diodes are not excluded. In Figure 2, the first and the second The two groups can be interleaved as an I-shaped or un-displayed F-shape as shown. To avoid a converter, preferably the first group includes a first number of series circuits, for example via a main power supply. The second group includes a second quantity of series 133318.doc •13-200926096, such as a light-emitting diode powered by a battery power source due to a (rectified) main power source The voltage is typically greater than a battery voltage, so the first amount will typically be greater than the second amount. A side view of the second embodiment of one of the first and second generators 2_3 in Fig. 3 is shown.
