In the 1st execution mode, the controll block 13 connected with wired mode can dynamically be dismantled, be connected with sensor block 14, by replacing sensor function, also can easily carry out the change of control area etc.
By making controll block 13 and sensor block 14 serial communications, even carry a plurality of functions in sensor block 14, controll block 13 also can form by less terminal with the electric check portion of sensor block 14, so can make expensive structure member cost degradation.In addition, though after new transducer has appearred, by for example equipping existing communication interface 20 and the sensor block with the terminal that can accept new sensor element being installed, can easily connect, also guaranteed autgmentability.
[the 2nd execution mode]
The ligthing paraphernalia 12 of the 2nd execution mode of the present invention is the structure same with the 1st execution mode, and the sending method that sends the transducer kind from sensor block 14 is diverse ways.Fig. 6 means to send from the sensor block 14 of the 2nd execution mode of the present invention the sequence of movement of the sending method of transducer kind.
Sensor block 14 is also accepted the supply (step S21) of power supply when being connected to controll block 13, so microcomputer 35 starts (step S22).As shown in step S23, S24, sensor block 14 always sends when sensor detection information is sent to controll block 13 together with the transducer kind of information.Sensor block 14 termly (such as during t1) send sensor detection information signal (people detection information, lightness level etc.).
Controll block 13 reads the transducer kind of information of reception termly, can identify the transducer oneself connected, if sensor block 14 is removed (step S28), in the situation that regular signal be not for carry out transducer break away from judgement certain during, during for example t2 more than, can think that sensor block has been removed (step S29).
Being used for of controll block 13 carried out transducer and broken away from t2 during judgement certain and set to such an extent that recently the interval t1 of the regular signal of autobiography sensor piece 14 is long.
Also can be configured to, in the situation that the sensor detection information signal that does not have sensor block 14 to detect, as shown in step S25~S27, sensor block 14 sends transducer kind of information and false signal.
If the people detection transducer detects information in the situation that people sender detected, in the situation that detecting information, nobody sends false signal.If the lightness transducer sends lightness information.In addition, as another example, the present invention also can possess remote controller and be subject to optical sensor in sensor block 14, when operator's remote controller, sensor block 14 detects remote controller signal, signal by the remote controller by detecting sends to controll block 13 control point circuit for lamp 15, can regulate the lightness of lamp 16.In the case, in the situation that remote controller is subject to light sensors to arrive remote controller operation signal information, sensor block 14 sends detection information, in the situation that remote controller does not have remote controller operation signal information in being subject to optical sensor, sensor block 14 sends false signal.Be not limited to above-mentioned people detection transducer, lightness transducer, remote controller, by the information by sensor block 14 and false signal combination, can realize above-mentioned functions.
In the 2nd execution mode, even do not possess the notice of disengaging switch 23 etc., also can easily carry out transducer and break away from processing when transducer is dismantled.
[the 3rd execution mode]
