Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a system for the remote control of light fixtures.
  • Systems for the remote control of light fixtures are known, in which, through a remote control terminal, the user is able to pilot and/or monitor the operating status of a plurality of light fixtures located in an environment.
  • the light fixtures comprise a lamp and a local control unit which pilots the operation of the lamp itself and is able to communicate, through a data communication bus, with the remote control terminal which shows the user a number of information concerning the operating status of each lamp, and is provided with a series of control devices which enable the user himself to send commands to the light fixtures in the system so as to control the switching on/off or the light intensity of one or more lamps.
  • Number 1 in Figure 1 indicates as a whole a system for the remote control of light fixtures 1, which is suited to allow a user to configure, by means of a remote control terminal 2, a graphic map of the light fixtures 3 located inside an environment or room, so that, by means of that graphic map, he can then select and control in remote mode a number of operating parameters of one or more light fixtures 3 locate in the same environment.
  • Each light fixture 3 present in the environment is of a known type and comprises a source of light, that is a lamp 4 such as, for example, a fluorescent lamp, a halogen lamp, a discharge lamp, a lamp with LED, or any other type of lamp; and a local control unit 5, which is electrically coupled to the lamp 4 to control its operation, and is connected through a data communication bus 6 to the remote control terminal 2 to perform with the latter a bidirectional exchange of data.
  • a lamp 4 such as, for example, a fluorescent lamp, a halogen lamp, a discharge lamp, a lamp with LED, or any other type of lamp
  • a local control unit 5 which is electrically coupled to the lamp 4 to control its operation, and is connected through a data communication bus 6 to the remote control terminal 2 to perform with the latter a bidirectional exchange of data.
  • the local control unit 5 of each light fixture 3 comprises a processing circuit 5a, which is provided with an internal memory (not illustrated) suited for storing an address or identification code C P which univocally identifies the light fixture 3, and a lamp code C LAMP suited to identify an information concerning the type of lamp 4 coupled to the local control unit 5.
  • the processing circuit 5a of the local control unit 5 also comprises a data receiving and transmitting block (not illustrated), which is connected to the data communication bus 6 so as to be able to carry out a bidirectional exchange of data with the latter, implementing a data communication protocol of a known type, in particular the DALI communication protocol, which will not be further described since it is a protocol of a known type.
  • the data communication bus 6 may be defined by any type of means of transmission, for example a pair of telephone cables.
  • a processing device 7 for example a microprocessor that is able to implement a series of control and command operations (described below in detail); with a memory 8 suited to cooperate with the processing device 7 to store data and with a number of graphic interfaces (which will be described below in detail); with a receiving and transmitting block 9, which is connected to the data communication bus 6 and is suited to receive and transmit data from and to the latter, implementing the above-mentioned DALI communication protocol.
  • the remote control terminal 2 also comprises a display device 10 suited to receive a series of data from the processing device 7 and to display them to the user in a suitable graphic format (described below in detail); and a command device 11 connected to the processing device 7 and suited to allow the user to give a series of commands to the remote control terminal 2 during the control of the light fixtures 3.
  • a display device 10 suited to receive a series of data from the processing device 7 and to display them to the user in a suitable graphic format (described below in detail); and a command device 11 connected to the processing device 7 and suited to allow the user to give a series of commands to the remote control terminal 2 during the control of the light fixtures 3.
  • the display device 10 and the command device 11 are integrated in a single interface appliance composed of a display and command panel of the Touch Screen type, indicated below with number 16, by means of which the user is able both to configure the graphic map for the control and selection of the light fixtures 3, and to perform a series of other operations, for example, the piloting and remote monitoring of the operating status of one or more light fixtures 3 located in the environment.
  • the phase of configuration of the graphic map of control and selection of the light fixtures 3 begins with the operations of downloading from the memory 8, by means of the processing device 9, a first graphic interface 12 (illustrated in figure 3) and with the display of the same to the user by means of the Touch Screen 16 (block 100).
  • the first graphic interface 12 comprises a matrix or reference grid 13, which is made up of a series of reference lines and columns which define a spatial graphic subdivision of the environment in which the light fixtures 3 are located; and a display window 14 of the type of lamp.
  • the processing device 7 commands the transmission, through the data communication bus 6, of an interrogation signal to the local control units 5.
  • the local control units 5 receive the interrogation signal from the data communication bus 6, and one of them, chosen according to a criterion established by the DALI protocol, passes from OFF condition to ON condition, while the other lamps 4 remain in OFF condition, so as to supply the user with a visual signal of the light fixture 3 to be positioned (block 110) graphically on the reference grid 13.
  • the local control unit 5 transmits in the data communication bus 6 the corresponding lamp code C LAMP which identifies the type of lamp located in the activated light fixture 3, and its identification code C P (block 120).
  • the processing device 7 of the remote control terminal 2 receives from the data communication bus 6 the identification code C P and the lamp code C LAMP corresponding to the activated light fixture 3, and searches for a lamp symbol or icon associated with the lamp code C LAMP in a table stored in the memory 8.
  • the processing device 7 commands the downloading of the symbol or icon from the memory 8 and displays it on the display window 14 (block 130).
  • processing device 7 goes into a condition of waiting (output NO block 140) for the selection of the position of a light fixture 3 on the reference grid 13 (block 140) by the user.
  • the user is able to assign the position of the light fixture 3 manually on the reference grid 13 by typing in or pressing on the grid the point (line, column) in which he wants to assign the light fixture 3 graphically.
  • the waiting condition of the processing device 7 ends (output YES block 140) when the user presses and selects on the Touch Screen 16 the position of the light fixture 3 to be inserted in the reference grid 13.
  • the processing device 7 cooperates with the Touch Screen 16 to detect the pressed position, that is the line P X and the column P Y selected on the reference grid 13, and stores in the memory 8 the information associated with the light fixture 3 assigned to the graphic map of selection and control, that is the respective lamp code C LAMP , the identification code C P and the position P X and P Y of the point pressed by the user on the reference grid 13 and calculated with respect to the axes X and Y (not illustrated) which define the references of the reference grid itself (block 150).
  • the processing device 7 activates the display of a light fixture graphic element 3a associated with the light fixture 3 located in the environment (corresponding to the identification code C P just detected and memorised).
  • This light fixture graphic element 3a may preferably, but not necessarily, be graphically represented by the symbol or icon associated with the type of lamp 4 detected and displayed in the display window 14.
  • the processing device 7 commands preferably, but not necessarily, the transmission on the data communication bus 6 of a confirmation signal C CONF which codifies the identification code C P for the light fixture 3 just memorised.
  • the local control unit 5 of the light fixture 3 associated with the identification code C P receives the confirmation signal C ONF from the communication bus and gives the corresponding lamp 4 the command to pass from ON condition to a condition of confirming memorisation in which the lamp 4 is activated according to a predetermined operating mode, in such a way as to provide the user with visual feedback of confirmation of the memorising of the light fixture 3 which has just been configured on the reference grid 13 (block 160).
  • the condition of confirming memorisation may correspond to the temporary blinking of the lamp 4, or a gradual increase or decease of its degree of luminosity or any other type of operation of the lamp 4, which allows the user to have a "direct visual confirmation" that the selected light fixture 3 has been memorised.
  • each light fixture graphic element 3a represented on the reference grid 13 corresponds to a respective light fixture 3 located in the environment.
  • the user is able to interact with one or more light fixtures 3, selecting the corresponding light fixture graphic elements 3a represented in the reference grid 13 and regulating the operating status of the light fixture or fixtures 3 located in the environment with the control buttons 16a shown on the Touch Screen 16 corresponding to the graphic map of control and selection.
  • the system for the remote control of light fixtures 1 is also able to allow the user to select, by means of the graphic map of control and selection, a plurality of light fixture graphic elements 3a and to assign the corresponding light fixtures 3 to groups of light fixtures that can be simultaneously controlled.
  • the processing device 7 of the remote control terminal 2 following a selection command given by the user, is able to download from the memory 8 and to display a second graphic interface 15 (illustrated in figure 4), which is suited to allow the user to assign each light fixture 3 located in the environment and associated with a light fixture graphic element 3a present on the graphic map to a respective group of light fixtures, which may be set by the user himself according to a plurality of possible scenes differing from one another.
  • the second graphic interface 15 comprises, as well as the graphic map, a series of group selection buttons 17, each of which is suited to allow the user to command the assignment of one or more light fixtures 3 to a determined group of light fixtures; a series of scene selection buttons 18, each of which is suited to allow the user to configure each group of light fixtures according to a determined "scene", that is according to a determined condition of luminosity; and a series of luminosity regulating buttons 19 suited to allow the user to increase/decease selectively the intensity of the light produced by the group of light fixtures, that is of the lamps 4 belonging to the light fixtures 3 associated with a determined group of light fixtures.
  • Figure 5 shows a flow chart indicating an example of the operations implemented by the remote control system 1 for the formation of a group of light fixtures and for the configuration of the same according to a determined scene or state of luminosity. In this case too it is presumed that initially the lamps 4 of the light fixtures 3 are in OFF condition.
  • the remote control terminal 2 displays the second graphic interface 15 (block 200) and the user is able to select, that is to activate manually on the graphic map, the light fixture graphic elements 3a for the light fixtures 3 to be assigned to a new group of light fixtures, for example the group A (block 210).
  • the light fixture graphic element 3a selected by the user is activated, that is it goes preferably, but not necessarily, into a highlighted condition, (for example it increases its own degree of luminosity so as to stand out from the other light fixture graphic elements 3a not selected), and preferably but not necessarily the processing device 7, by means of the communication bus 6, gives the command to the lamps 4 of the corresponding selected light fixtures 3, to pass from OFF condition to ON condition so as to supply the user with the direct indication of the light fixtures 3 selected on the graphic map to be assigned to the group A (block 220).
  • the user commands the processing device 7 to store in the memory 8 the identification codes C P of the selected light fixtures 3 to be assigned to the group A (block 230).
  • the group selection button 17 After the group selection button 17 has been pressed the light fixture graphic elements 3a of the graphic map return to rest condition (normal luminosity), that is non highlighted, and the corresponding light fixtures 3 pass from ON condition to OFF condition (block 240).
  • the user can configure it, according to a determined state of luminosity, that is according to a desired scene.
  • the user selects on the Touch Screen 16 the group that he wants to configure, for example the group A, for example by pressing and holding down the group selection button (block 240).
  • the processing device 7 downloads from the memory 8 the data concerning the identification codes C P for the light fixtures 3 associated with the group A and activates, or puts into highlighted condition on the graphic map, the corresponding light fixture graphic elements 3a; at the same time, the lamps 4 of the light fixtures 3 of the group A pass from OFF condition to ON condition.
  • the user manually regulates, by means of the regulating buttons 19 (block 250) present on the Touch Screen 16, the luminous intensity generated by the lamps 4 of the light fixtures 3 of the group A so as to bring it to a level corresponding to the desired scene.
  • the scene may present, for example, a level of luminosity set for a reading environment, or for viewing projected television or film images, or for rest condition, or any other conditioned in which it is necessary to adapt the luminous intensity in the environment to suit a determined criterion.
  • the processing device 7 commands the storage of the information concerning the degree of intensity associated with the light fixtures 3 corresponding to the group A according to the configuration of the External A; at the same time, the lamps 4 of the light fixtures 3 belonging to the group A go into OFF condition (block 270).
  • the user can activate the pre-set scene for each group of light fixtures with the rapid scene selection buttons 21 present in a third graphic interface 20 illustrated in figure 6; in the particular case, when the rapid scene selection button 21 for the scene A is pressed, the remote control terminal 2 transmits through the communication bus 6 an activation signal codifying the identification codes C P of the light fixtures belonging to the group A and the information concerning the degree of luminous intensity associated with the scene A.
  • the local control units 5 of the light fixtures 3 belonging to the group A receive the activation signal from the data communication bus 6, and according to this they command the activation of the respective lamp 4 according to the information contained in the activation signal, thus determining the required scene.
  • the system for the remote control of light fixtures 1 is suited to supply, through the remote control terminal 2, the monitoring in "real time" of the operating status of each light fixture 3.
  • the remote control terminal 2 is able to exchange, through the communication bus 6, a series of information with the local control units 5 to detect from the latter the operating status of the light fixtures 3, and it has the function of modifying each light fixture graphic element 3a present on the graphic map, according to the operating status of the repetitive light fixture 3, so as to be able to show the user the graphic map of the operating status of the light fixtures 3.
  • the processing device 7 is able to download from the memory 4 and display on the Touch Screen 16 a fourth graphic interface 23, in which each light fixture graphic element 3a located on the reference grid 13, changes its graphic representation according to the operating status of the respective light fixture 3 detected by the remote control terminal 2 through the exchange of information with the local control units 5.
  • each light fixture graphic element 3a can pass from the graphic representation of the type of lamp 4, indicating a condition of correct operation of the corresponding light fixture 3, to a graphic representation indicating a condition of malfunction of the same light fixture, which may preferably, but not necessarily, also indicate the cause of the fault; for example the light fixture graphic element 3a may indicate that the lamp has fused (indicated with the number 23a in figure 7), the presence of a short circuit (indicated with the number 23b), the condition of an interruption in the cable (indicated with the number 23c) and other possible types of faults.
  • the system for the remote control of light fixtures 1 may include preferably, but not necessarily, at least one device 30 for measuring the degree of luminosity in the environment, situated in the environment in which the light fixtures 3 are located and connected to the communication bus 6 to transmit to the latter a measuring signal S MIS indicating the degree of luminosity measured in the environment itself.
  • the remote control terminal 2 receive the measuring signal S MIS from the communication bus 6 and processes it to decode the degree of luminosity in the environment. Once the degree of luminosity in the environment has been obtained, the remote control terminal 2 is able to command the automatic increase/decrease (according to a series of predetermined operations implemented by the processing device 7) of the luminous intensity produced by the lamp 4 of each light fixture 3 according to the setting previously made by the user in a determined scene.
  • the system 1 allows the user to "assign" a determined group of light fixtures 3 to the measuring device 30 so as to regulate their luminous intensity selectively according to the measuring signal S MIS supplied by the measuring device 30 itself.
  • the processing device 7 commands the downloading from the memory 8 and the display of a fifth graphic interface 24 comprising the graphic map and at least one confirmation button 25 (indicated in figure 8 with "sensor 1") associated with the measuring device 30.
  • the assigning of the light fixtures 3 to the measuring device 30 is done by manually selecting on the graphic map a series of light fixture graphic elements 3a and, by means of the confirmation button 25, confirming the assigning of the latter to the measuring device 30.
  • the fifth graphic interface 24 also presents buttons for setting the level luminosity 26 suited to allow the manual setting of the degree of intensity of the light fixtures 3 associated with the measuring device 30.
  • the number of measuring devices 30 present in the environment may be more than one and consequently it is possible to assign to each of them a respective group of lamps in such a way as to differentiate the degree of luminous intensity within the environment.
  • the fifth graphic interface 24 can allow the user to position on the reference grid 13, by means of a positioning system similar to the one described above for the light fixtures, some sensor graphic elements (not illustrated) each of which is associated with and indicates a corresponding measuring device 30 present in the environment.
  • the processing device 7 is able to associate a group of lamps automatically with a determined measuring device 30; in particular the processing device 7 detects on the reference grid 13 the light fixture graphic elements 3a located in a predetermined area around a corresponding sensor graphic element, and assigns them to the control of the measuring device 30 associated with that sensor graphic element.
  • the system for the remote control of light fixtures 1 has the great advantage of being extremely simple to configure and to use; in fact the representation of the graphic map of control and selection allows the user to locate the position of the light fixture in an extremely practical and immediate way, and to perform any type of regulation of the operating parameters of a light fixture by simply selecting the respective light fixture graphic element 3a. Moreover, the positioning of the light fixtures 3 on the reference grid 13, that is the configuration of the graphic map of control is extremely simple, thanks both to the presence of the reference grid and to the search function and automatic assigning of the type of lamp corresponding to the light fixture 3 to be configured.

  • This remote appliance (not illustrated) comprises a command keyboard and a receiving and transmitting block (not illustrated) that is able to communicate and transmit the data that codify the commands, to a corresponding receiving and transmitting block (not illustrated) located in the remote control terminal 2 and connected to the processing device 7.
  • the communication between the two receiving and transmitting blocks may be achieved by means of a communication system operating on a radio frequency or an infrared system.
  • each line and each column may be only partially displayed on the Touch Screen 16, corresponding to a predetermined portion of its own two ends.
