摘要： A two-way radio frequency lighting control system comprises a master control including a plurality of manual actuators, and a plurality of dimmers, in which the number of dimmers does not exceed the number of manual actuators. After the lighting control system is installed in an intended end user location, and prior to the first time the lighting control system is energized in the intended end user location, each of the manual actuators is operative to affect the status of one, and only one, of the plurality of dimmers. A turn key lighting control system in which there is a one-to-one correspondence of manual actuators to dimmers is thereby provided.

摘要： A ballast for a gas discharge lamp comprising a first circuit portion for providing power to a lighting load and a second circuit portion for processing data exchanged with a communication link, the first circuit portion receiving power from an AC main supply for conversion to a form suitable to supply power to the lamp, and the second circuit portion having a power supply supplied from the AC main supply, the power supply being coupled at the input of the AC main supply to the first circuit portion, further comprising a first protection circuit coupled in series with the AC main supply for protecting the first and second circuit portions in the event of an electrical circuit failure leading to an overcurrent condition, the power supply for the second circuit portion being coupled such that it is protected by the first protection circuit; further comprising a second protection circuit disposed in series with the first circuit portion and providing protection only in the event of electrical failure leading to an overcurrent condition in the first circuit portion; the second protection circuit will discontinue the supply of current to the first circuit portion, thereby preventing an overcurrent in the first protection circuit that would cause the first protection to interrupt current, and thereby allowing the first protection circuit to continue to supply electrical current to the second circuit portion.

摘要： A gate drive circuit for a controllably conductive device, such as a triac, includes a trigger circuit for conducting a gate current through a control input of the controllably conductive device, and a sense circuit operable to generate a control signal representative of the magnitude of the gate current. The controllably conductive device is adapted to be coupled in series between an AC power source and an electrical load for controlling the amount of power delivered to the electrical load. The controllably conductive device is operable to change from a non-conductive state to a conductive state in response to the gate current being conducted through the control input. A controller is operable to control the controllably conductive device via the gate drive circuit and to determine, in response to the magnitude of the gate current through the control input of the controllably conductive device, whether the controllably conductive device is presently conducting current to the load.

摘要： A smart dimmer switch for control of a lighting load from an AC voltage source can replace any switch in a three-way or four-way lighting control system. The smart dimmer switch can be connected on the line-side or the load-side of a three-way system with a standard three-way switch in the other location. Further, the dimmer switch can replace a four-way switch in a four-way system and is operable to be coupled to two standard three-way switches. The dimmer switch includes either one or two semiconductor switches to control the intensity of the connected lighting load. The dimmer switch preferably includes a sensing circuit for detecting an electrical characteristic (i.e., either a voltage or a current) at a terminal of the dimmer to determine the state of the connected three-way switch(s) or four-way switch. The dimmer switch preferably controls the state of the semiconductor switch in response to either a toggle of any of the other switches in the system or an actuation of a toggle button of the dimmer switch.

摘要： Systems and methods for providing a load control device, such as a DALI ballast, having an infrared receiver. The load control device resides on a digital communications link and receives infrared commands via a lightpipe. The commands are input to a microprocessor to set an address of the load control device. Addressing the load control device in this manner allows plural control devices residing on a single communications link to be addressed by the same short address. The control devices may be removed and replaced, and the short address and zone assignments of the removed devices may be reassigned to the replacement devices via infrared communication. The load control device may be placed into various modes ( e.g ., a programming mode or addressing mode) via commands received over the infrared receiver.

摘要： A low-power radio - frequency (RF) receiver is characterized by a decreased current consumption such that the RF receiver may be used in control devices, such as battery powered motorized window treatments and two -wire dimmer switches. The RF receiver uses an RF sub- sampling technique to check for the RF signals and then put the RF receiver to sleep for a sleep time that is longer than a packet length of a transmitted packet to thus conserve battery power and lengthen the lifetime of the batteries. The RF receiver compares detected RF energy to a detect threshold that may be increased to decrease the sensitivity of the RF receiver and increase the lifetime of the batteries. After detecting that an RF signal is being transmitted, the RF receiver is put to sleep for a snooze time period that is longer than the sleep time and just slightly shorter than the time between two consecutive transmitted packets to further conserve battery power.
摘要翻译：低功率射频（RF）接收机的特征在于降低的电流消耗，使得RF接收器可以用于诸如电池供电的电动窗口处理和双线调光开关的控制装置中。 RF接收机使用RF子采样技术来检查RF信号，然后将RF接收机置于比发送分组的分组长度更长的睡眠时间睡眠，从而节省电池功率并延长其寿命电池。 RF接收器将检测到的RF能量与可以增加的检测阈值进行比较，以降低RF接收器的灵敏度并增加电池的寿命。在检测到RF信号被发送之后，RF接收机被置于比休眠时间长的休眠时间段，并且稍短于两个连续发送的分组之间的时间，以进一步节省电池电量。

摘要： A multiple location dimming system comprises a plurality of dimmers coupled between an AC power source and a lighting load. Each of the plurality of dimmers is operable to control the intensity of the lighting load and comprises a controllably conductive device, e.g., a triac. The triacs of the plurality of dimmers are coupled in parallel electrical connection. Only an active one of the dimmers is operable to conduct a load current to the lighting load at any given time. A passive dimmer is operable to monitor the voltage across its triac in order to determine when the active dimmer is firing its triac. Accordingly, the passive dimmer is operable to fire its triac before the active dimmer fires its triac in order to "take over" control of the lighting load from the active dimmer to become the next active dimmer. Further, the passive dimmer is operable to determine the amount of power being delivered to the load and display this information on one or more status indicators.
