Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for controlling a plurality of luminaires according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a device of the applicant is from the DE 198 17 073.4 known.
- the known device has proven itself in use.
- the known device is according to the object of the invention further develop such that it is variable in use.
- the invention achieves this object with the features of claim 1, in particular with those of the characterizing part, and is accordingly characterized in that at least one luminaire has at least three differently colored luminous means, e.g. a red lamp, a blue lamp and a green lamp, wherein each of the three lamps is assigned its own, individually addressable ballast, with each of which the brightness level of the associated lamp is adjustable, wherein an input unit is provided at the at least one color value for the Luminaire is input, and wherein a computer unit is provided which converts the input color value into brightness level values of the three lamps, the computer unit for displaying the color value by the lights at least the brightness level values individually addressed to the ballasts sends.
- luminous means e.g. a red lamp, a blue lamp and a green lamp
- each of the three lamps is assigned its own, individually addressable ballast, with each of which the brightness level of the associated lamp is adjustable
- an input unit is provided at the at least one color value for the Luminaire is input
- a computer unit is
- luminaires which have a plurality of differently colored partial lamps, for example a red, a green and a blue partial lamp.
- Bulbs are for example colored fluorescent lamps but also any other light sources, such as LEDs, into consideration.
- colorless lamps are also white lamps, so colorless lamps into consideration, which with a coloring element, such as a color filter, e.g. a color foil, interact.
- a coloring element such as a color filter, e.g. a color foil
- the color generated by a luminaire consists of the sum of the individual colors. Depending on the brightness level of the individual lamps results in a different overall color of the lamp.
- Every single lamp is assigned a single-addressable ballast. This may be a separate component for each individual lamp or, alternatively, a common component for a plurality of different lamps, which has an individual addressing possibility for the three lamps.
- the device is also assigned an input unit to which a color value for the luminaire can be entered.
- the entered color value shall be displayed by the luminaire by appropriate calculation of the brightness levels of the individual lamps and by transmission of these brightness level values to the ballasts.
- the computer unit converts the color value into brightness level values of the three lamps.
- the computer unit then transmits the brightness level values for displaying the color value to the ballasts individually addressed.
- the invention initially makes it possible to input defined color values to the input unit. Furthermore, the device enables a particularly simple forwarding of the brightness level values to the ballasts.
- the device according to the invention makes it possible to use the DALI protocol for the communication between the memory unit and the ballasts.
- the DALI protocol is described in Annex E of the ballast standard IEC 60929. Further information can be found on the website of the DALI Working Group at www.dali-ag.org. The content of the there retrievable DALI manual, 2nd edition, is hereby included in the content of the present patent application.
- the DALI protocol is not intended and designed for the control of colored luminaires. Nevertheless, the device according to the invention makes it possible to use the DALI protocol for changing the color of luminaires.
- the computer unit transmits the brightness level values directly to the ballasts in an individually addressed manner in order to display the color value. It is not necessary to use the light scene memories provided in the individual ballasts according to the DALI protocol for the retrieval of light scenes. In contrast, the direct, individually addressed transmission of the brightness level values allows a very high variability.
- the computer unit may, for example, consist of two computer sub-units, which are assigned to both the memory unit and the input unit.
- a computer subunit arranged on the input unit takes over part of the arithmetic work, z. Example, while inputs are made, and when the memory unit associated second computer subunit takes over the transmission of the control information to the individual ballasts, in particular, even if the input unit is disconnected from the device.
- An individual addressing of the ballasts within the meaning of the invention means that the transmission of the brightness level values in each case to a specific, individual ballast and thus to a specific subscriber of the Network, in particular to a particular colored lamp.
- the control command which is sent to represent the color value by the light from the computer unit and / or from the storage unit, thus always contains an address component.
- a device for controlling a plurality of lights is known under the name "LUXMATE-Emotion" by Zumtobel-Staff GmbH, based in Dornbirn, Austria.
- color values can be input at an operator control unit, wherein the color values are converted into brightness level values and the brightness level values are individually addressed and stored as light scenes in electronic ballasts.
- the device uses the possibility provided by the DALI protocol to store light scenes. To display the color value, commands are sent via the signal line, which retrieve the stored light scenes. For the representation of the color value by the luminaire, brightness level values are thus not transmitted directly to the individual addressed.
- the known device does not allow input of more than two color values and in particular no arbitrary selectable sequence of color stations.
- a real-time representation, ie color rendering, of a color value specified on the input unit is also not provided by the known device. Also, due to the instruction sets given by the DALI protocol, the number of possible storable light scenes, ie static color stations, is limited to 16.
- the color value is reached starting from one of the lamp before input of the color value associated output color value within a time adjustable by the user (target time).
- target time can also be chosen close to zero.
- the input unit thus provides the possibility of entering a target time by the user, which corresponds to the time to change the color generated by the lamp to the new value.
- the adjustable by the user target time can also be a round trip time, which is needed for a run of a color transition of several color stations.
- the target time is in this sense, for example, the total circulation time of the color passage. If, for example, a target time of 500 seconds is specified for a run through ten different color stations, then the time interval between two color stations-indirectly adjustable by the user-is 50 seconds.
- the computer unit and / or the memory unit subdivides the target time into a multiplicity of time intervals (fading times).
- the computer and / or the memory unit calculates a corresponding multiplicity of intermediate color values and associated intermediate brightness level values between the output color value and the color value. It then sends the calculated intermediate brightness level values and the brightness level values corresponding to the color value subsequently to the ballasts in the time intervals individually addressed.
- This embodiment of the invention offers particular advantages in terms of a design of the color transition. Based on an output color value that represents the luminaire at an output time, the user may enter a color value that represents a target value for the luminaire. The target value should be reached within a target time.
- this embodiment of the invention can be used to calculate and control a multiplicity of intermediate values and intermediate stages, which are controlled within respectively short time intervals. The steps can be shortened in this way so that it no longer arrives to achieve a color transition to the dimming curve stored in the individual ballasts. The dimming curve is no longer resolvable in this sense.
- time intervals are selected to be shorter than 10 seconds, advantageously shorter than 5 seconds, and in particular shorter than 2 seconds. Color transitions of such short time intervals can virtually not resolve the human eye - assuming small color differences.
- the input unit is provided by a device separate from the operating unit.
- the much more complicated, for example, to be operated by a lighting planner input unit may be a separate unit, for example, part of a computer.
- the operating unit can be designed in this way very simple and is therefore inexpensive to produce.
- the essential requirements for storage capacity and performance are provided by the storage unit.
- the input unit is assigned a color value display for (almost) all representable color values, the color value being derived from the color value Color value display is selectable.
- the color value display may be, for example, a color wheel or a color standard table, which represents essentially all the colors that can be generated by the luminaire.
- a particular problem in this context is that the colors displayed on a screen do not necessarily correspond to the color produced by the luminaire in the room.
- the representation of the color value can be controlled by the lamp in the installed state.
- the color value display is assigned a cursor which can be moved by means of a positioning device, e.g. a mouse, along the color value display by changing the Cursorortes is controllable.
- the computer location and / or the memory unit assigns a color value to the cursor location. In this way, it is possible to have the color value set on the color value display directly, that is to say almost in real time, or online, represented by the luminaire.
- the color value is calculated from the cursor location in real time and displayed by the lamp. In this way, a shift of the cursor is sufficient, for example, by moving the mouse to change the color. A mouse click is no longer required in this embodiment of the invention.
- the actuation of an actuating element is required for calculating the color value from the cursor location, for example a left mouse button. This allows a more defined, safer operation of the input unit to select a color value.
- a plurality of color values is present at an input unit (Color stations) can be entered.
- the multiple color values may be combined by the user in any order.
- a color transition is possible, which is formed by the color stations red-green-red-blue-red-yellow-red-green-red-orange-red-blue-red-violet-red-blue-red-green-red-orange, etc.
- the input unit sequentially polls the plurality of color values from the user.
- the combination of the color values leads to a color transition. This can also be formed endlessly encircling, so that an infinite loop is programmable to generate corresponding dynamic lighting.
- the information are stored in a retrievable manner via the color transition in the memory unit.
- a retrievability is possible through the control unit. The once entered by a lighting designer at the input unit color stations or color passages can be accessed in this way very comfortable.
- the memory unit and / or the computer unit for displaying the color passage sends the corresponding brightness level values one after the other individually addressed to the ballasts.
- a transmission process can take place during normal operation of the device, for example when a corresponding selection from a menu item has taken place on the operating device.
- the transmission process can also be carried out during a programming phase of the device, ie at a time when the input device is connected to the device. This embodiment enables the input of any number of color stations of a color passage, since the memory locations provided for in the DALI protocol for light scenes which are limited to 16 need not be used.
- the ballasts communicate with the memory unit and / or with at least a part of the computer unit according to the DALI protocol. This allows compatibility of different ballasts with each other. In addition, known standards can be used.
- the signal line is associated with an interface designed in particular as a USB interface.
- a computer in particular a laptop, can be connected to the device in a simple manner.
- the interface is arranged according to a further embodiment of the invention on a housing of the operating unit. This allows a particularly easy accessibility.
- the interface in a mounted state of the operating unit, in particular in a wall-mounted state of the operating unit, freely accessible on the housing, in particular on its underside.
- Fig. 1 10 In their entirety in Fig. 1 10 is shown by way of example only in the figures.
- the device comprises three lights 11a, 11b, 11c, which are attached to a mounting location in a building, eg ceiling-mounted.
- Each individual lamp for example the lamp 11a, comprises not shown, differently colored, individual lamps, for example a red lamp, a green lamp and a blue lamp.
- Each individual lamp of a lamp is assigned its own, individually addressable, electronic ballast. Consequently, the light fixture 11a, which comprises three individual lamps, comprises a group 12a of three individual, individually addressable ballasts. It is conceivable that each ballast for each individual lamp has its own housing.
- ballasts from Osram, Tridonic or Philips come into question, which are commercially available.
- Osram, Tridonic or Philips come into question, which are commercially available.
- ballasts are combined to form a common component. It is crucial that each individual lamp of the respective lamp 11a, 11b, 11c is individually addressable via the corresponding ballast.
- the illustrated three lights are to be understood as an example.
- the maximum number of network subscribers is limited to 64 by the DALI protocol, with one colored light emitting light having three lamps and thus three subscribers.
- the network can also be equipped with conventional monochrome lights.
- the individual ballasts are connected via a common signal line 13 to a memory unit 14.
- the memory unit 14 is a controller for the network and can send commands to the ballasts according to the DALI protocol.
- the individual ballasts used in Fig. 1 are indicated only schematically, understand the of the memory unit 14 via the Signal line 13 sent control commands according to the DALI protocol and convert the received information into control information for the individual lamps.
- the electrical ballasts generate different control voltages for the individual lamps in order to achieve different dimming values and thus different brightness level values of the individual ones.
- the lamp 11a is associated with a red, a green and a blue fluorescent lamp
- a change in the brightness levels of individual lamps, a change in the total light color, ie the color value of this lamp 11a can be achieved.
- the memory unit 14 is connected via a line 17 to an operating unit 20.
- the operating unit 20 communicates with the memory unit 14 via a protocol different from the DALI protocol according to the RS485 standard. Via the operating unit 20 stored in the memory unit 14 control commands and information can be retrieved. In the event that a specific light scene is stored in the memory unit 14, for example, this can be called up by the operating unit 20.
- the light scene may be, for example, a static light scene, so that a constant color is generated.
- a dynamic light scene to be stored in the storage unit 14, for example in the form of an endlessly circulating color passage which leads over a multiplicity of color stations.
- the operating unit 20 is in Fig. 2 shown in a schematic, perspective view. It becomes clear that the operating unit 20 has a substantially circumferential frame 21, which delimits a display 22, that is to say a screen display.
- the display 22 is designed as a touch-screen display, so that a circuit for retrieving control commands of the memory unit 14 can be made by touching the display.
- a socket is provided at the bottom 23 of the frame 21 of the control unit 20, a socket is provided.
- This is a USB interface 19, the connection of a in Fig. 1 serves with 18 designated cable.
- the arranged on the back of the control unit 20, in Fig. 3 schematically indicated fastening elements 24 serve the wall-side mounting of the operating unit 20, for example in the field of a flush-mounted socket. In wall-mounted state of the control unit 20, the USB interface 19 is readily accessible.
- Fig. 1 shows that an input unit 15, in particular a portable computer (laptop) via the cable 18 can be connected to the control unit 20.
- the function and operation of the input unit 15 will be described later.
- USB interface 19 may be arranged for connection to the input unit 15.
- USB interface As an alternative to using a USB interface, other interfaces may also be considered. However, a USB interface enables a particularly high level of operating convenience.
- Fig. 4 shows by way of example a first color value display 25a in the form of a color wheel and a second color value display 25b in the form of a color palette.
- a cursor 26 shown in the color value display 25b in the form of a stylized hand with an extended index finger as is commonly used as a cursor in Windows programs, a color value can be selected from the color spectrum.
- the operation of the device is as follows:
- the memory unit 14, the lights 11a, 11b, 11c, the individual electronic ballasts (eg the groups 12a, 12b, 12c of ballasts) and the control unit 20 are fixedly mounted in a building. Via the USB interface 19, the device 10 can be connected to an input unit 15.
- the input unit 15 has a color value display for all, at least for substantially all, representable color values. Exemplary is in Fig. 4 a color wheel 25a representing the entire color spectrum is shown.
- a cursor not shown in the color chart 25a can now be moved along the color wheel.
- the running or callable on the input unit 15 software or alternatively a fixed wiring assign the current location of the cursor in the color wheel to a color value.
- a color value For example, as shown in boxes 27a, 27b, and 27c in FIG Fig. 4 also be represented in the form of scale values of a red value, a green value and a blue value.
- 256 scale graduations are provided for each of the three colors, the scale value 0 corresponding, for example, to an off state of the red lamp and the scale value 255 to a maximum on state of the red lamp.
- the intermediate values correspond to the dimming conditions.
- the input unit 15 assigns a color value to the current cursor location by means of a computer unit 16a.
- the computer unit 16a transmits this color value via the cable 18, the operating unit 20 and the cable 17 to the memory unit 14 or to a computer subassembly 16b assigned to the memory unit 14.
- the computer subunit 16a and the computer subunit 16b thus form a common computer unit.
- the color value received by the computer subunit 16b is converted by the latter into brightness level values for the individual partial lamps of the luminaires and sent directly to the individual ballasts.
- a representation of the color value assigned to a cursor location in the color value display is thus possible almost in real time by means of all luminaires 11a, 11b, 11c connected to the device 10.
- the color selected on the input unit 15 can be checked directly with respect to its spatial effect.
- a representation of the Color value, which is selected on the input unit 15, is practically in real time, so "online” possible. It should be noted that a maximum of 64 subscribers can be connected to the device 10 using the DALI protocol. In the case of colored luminaires, these are a maximum of 21 luminaires each with three individual, differently colored lamps.
- the device 10 according to the invention also allows the setting of a variety of different color stations and their link to a color passage.
- the number of different color stations is unlimited.
- the color stations form a color passage that revolves endlessly.
- the total cycle time is adjustable by the user, as for example the field 28 in Fig. 4 suggests.
- the number of color stations can be set in advance in, for example, field 29.
- the input device 15 can sequentially query which individual color values are to be assigned to the color stations.
- a color red-green-red-blue-red-orange-red-blue-red-yellow-red-purple etc. can be entered, which is then repeated as desired.
- the total cycle time is 320 seconds, for example, in a 16-station color pass. This means that there is a time interval of 20 seconds between two color stations.
- the device 10 now calculates, with the aid of the computer subunit 16a and / or with the aid of the computer subunit 16b, between each two adjacent color stations a multiplicity of intermediate color stations; in the aforementioned example, for example, nine intermediate stations. In this way, approximately every 2 seconds to generate a color transition from the computer subunits 16b and 16a or from the memory unit 14 control information via the signal line 13 individually addressed to all ballasts sent.
- the device 10 thus enables a fine gradation and almost constant transmission of new brightness values within short time intervals. This allows a precise, predictable color transition without having to resort to the fading times stored in the ballasts.
- DALI terminals ie ballasts operating according to the DALI protocol
- fading time a so-called "fading time”
- the individual ballasts have different stored dimming curves, a precise, predictable color transition using the individual dimming curves stored in the ballasts is not achievable.
- the device 10 according to the invention thus also allows the use of different ballasts, for example, different manufacturers, without causing inaccuracies in the color transition.
- the device according to the invention transmits information about new brightness values to be reached to the ballasts no later than every 10 seconds, preferably at the latest every 5 seconds and more preferably at the latest every 2 seconds, from the computer subunit 16b or from the memory unit 14 , In this way, the color changes of a human eye within this time interval can not be practically resolved. Further fine tuning is no longer required.
- the computer subunit 16b and the memory unit 14 in the embodiment represent a common structural unit, in particular a small computer.
- the device according to the invention also offers the possibility that a color transition, that is to say a dynamic light scene, can be set individually with regard to its entire course. A user can select each individual color station individually and in this way assemble a color sequence of any order and sequence.
- the input unit 15 can be disconnected from the device 10 by releasing the USB interface connection 18/19 after entering the individual color values and the color transitions.
- the illumination information for example a specific color transition, is stored on the memory unit 14 and can be called up by the operating unit 20.
- this output color value is denoted by A and, for example, represents the color triplel values (255, 0.0) as representative of the brightness level values of a red one green and a blue lamp. According to the output color value A, the light emits red light.
- a target color value Z is to be achieved which has the color triplel values 0, 255, 0.
- the target color value corresponds to green light, since only the green lamp is lit.
- a target time t z of, for example, 500 seconds is provided for this purpose.
- the device 10 thus has 500 seconds to transfer the color emitted by the luminaires from the output value A to the target color value Z.
- the device 10 in particular the computer units 16a or 16b, automatically calculates a plurality of intermediate color values, preferably 254 intermediate color values. The device then sends every 2 seconds a new color value to the individual ballasts associated with the lamps.
- the new brightness level value 254 is transmitted within the first 2 seconds, for example to the ballast associated with the red lamp, in a target-addressed manner.
- the target brightness is also sent to the ballast associated with the green lamp, the brightness level value 1 being transmitted.
- the brightness level value 253 is then transmitted to the red-lamp ballast in an individually addressed manner and the brightness level value 2 allocated to the green lamp is assigned. In this way, every single ballast is addressed 250 times within 500 seconds and confronted with a new brightness level value.
- the lights or participants of the network are summarized in any way to groups. For example, e.g. defining a first dynamic light scene in the form of a color passage responsive to a first group of lights or participants of the network, and a second dynamic light scene in the form of a color passage responsive to a second group of lights or participants of the network.
