Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for controlling at least one operating device for lamps according to the preamble of patent claim 1, a lighting system with a control device and at least one operating device for operating lamps according to the preamble of claim 13, a control device for operating lamps, with an interface circuit to the
- Such methods are used to control operating devices for lighting and are used in lighting systems to turn on and off bulbs by means of a central control unit and adjust the brightness.
- the bulbs are driven by operating devices.
- the operating devices are grouped together and can be controlled by one or several central control units.
- the term bulbs refers to both gas discharge lamps and halogen lamps or light emitting diodes (LED).
- LED light emitting diodes
- Control commands can be specified in particular brightness values in order to achieve different lighting conditions.
- the operating devices may be provided with an address in order to enable a single or group-wide control by the central control unit.
- a widely used control method is the control of lighting systems according to the DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) standard.
- DALI Digital Addressable Lighting Interface
- This standard defines an interface and a transmission format for the digital control of operating devices, whereby addresses can be assigned for the individual operating devices.
- the operating devices can be switched on or off via the external control commands or in the
- Brightness can be controlled, also a special operating condition such as an emergency lighting state can be initiated and error messages are queried.
- the DALI standard is 16 bit Manchester code, which allows a maximum dimming speed with a brightness change from 1% to 100% in just 0.7 seconds.
- the high level is in the region of about 16V, the low level at a voltage of about 0 volts.
- the so-called stand-by mode is generally also referred to as idle state.
- the operating state is the ' state in which at least at least one operating device operates a lighting means.
- the application DE 10329876 A1 describes an operating device for gas discharge lamps with an interface device, wherein the power section of the operating device can be completely switched off in the event of a switch-off and a logic in the interface device monitors the bus line and in the case of activity on the bus line, the power section of the operating device activated again.
- the interface device of the operating device consuming and costly interpret and also the power section of the operating device must be adjusted.
- the solution according to the invention for controlling operating devices is based on the idea that a control device which can receive digital control commands and disconnect the connected operating devices from the network when a corresponding switch-off command can continue to receive digital control commands and store the last control command.
- a control command according to the invention is not only a turn-on command, turn-off command or new brightness value that can be transmitted to an operating device, but may also include extended information.
- a color information or a color command, an address, a state information or an error signal can be transmitted as a control command.
- the invention also relates to a device for receiving control commands by an operating device of lighting devices.
- the operating device has a driver circuit for operating the luminous means.
- the operating device has an interface circuit. In accordance with the received control commands, the operating device can control the operation and the brightness of the lighting device via the driver circuit.
- Fig. 1 shows schematically the embodiment of a lighting system with a control device according to the invention, via the control unit to the network coupled operating devices and other control devices
- the invention will be explained with reference to an embodiment of a lighting system with a control unit according to the invention, which coupled via the control unit to the network operating equipment and other control devices.
- the present invention can be applied to all kinds of lighting apparatuses.
- the use of very different bulbs is possible, it can be used in particular gas discharge lamps, halogen lamps or inorganic or organic light-emitting diodes.
- the operating device 1 and the control unit 10 are part of a lighting system A.
- control devices 11 may be connected to the bus line 21.
- the various controllers 11 are also referred to as actuators and may be various sensors such as motion or brightness sensors but also by a user controllable actuators such as switches, buttons or touch-sensitive screens with a user interface for lighting control.
- the bus line 21 is designed as a two-wire data line, which transmits a control signal as a digital signal with a low DC voltage. For example, a data transmission according to the DALI standard is transmitted via the bus line 21.
- Interface circuit 4 and controller 10 are capable of receiving control commands in accordance with the DALI standard.
- Control commands via the bus line 21 does not have to be wired, but it can, for example, wirelessly via a radio link or via a power line Communication (PLC) via the power grid 20 are transmitted.
- PLC power line Communication
- Transmission variants exist in each case standardized transmission methods analogous to the DALI standard for wired data transmission, wherein according to the inventive method, a modified data transmission via the same bus line 21 can take place.
- the control unit 10 can control single or multiple operating devices 1 of lighting devices via the bus line 21, wherein it can receive and also send digital control commands.
- the control unit 10 can disconnect the connected operating devices 1 from the grid in order to reduce their power consumption to 0. Thereby, the operating devices 1 are transferred from the operating state to a standby state.
- the control unit 10 continues to monitor the bus line 21 to control commands and can save them.
- the operating devices 1 Since the operating devices 1 are completely deactivated by disconnecting from the mains supply, the internal control circuit can not continue to operate. During this shutdown, however, the operating devices 1 have no possibility, due to their deactivated control circuit, to receive the control commands sent on the bus line. Since these control commands may contain various information or queries, these control commands may be relevant for the switched-off operating devices 1.
- the operating devices 1 When the mains supply is switched on again, the operating devices 1 must first restart, above all, their control circuit must first be initialized. If a reclosing command is sent to the operating devices 1, however, the operating devices 1 can not receive this control command because of their disconnection.
- the bus line 21 is monitored by the control unit 10 to control commands, even during the off phase.
- the control unit 10 can receive, evaluate and store all control commands sent on the bus line 21.
- the control unit 10 receives this reclosing command, stores it and switches the power supply back to the corresponding operating devices 1, these operating devices 1 are thus transferred from the idle state to the operating state. Due to the switched-on mains supply, the operating devices 1 start their run-up and initiate their control circuit. After the successful connection of the operating devices 1 to the mains supply, the control unit 10 sends the received and stored control commands to the operating devices 1. Once this control circuit is active again, the operating devices 1 can receive control commands again.
- the operating devices 1 drive the light source with the maximum possible brightness value when the mains supply is switched on, this can lead to an unsightly start of the light source for the observer.
- the different operating devices 1 available on the market have very different control circuits and can therefore also have a different starting behavior. If, for example, a very low level of brightness is desired by the observer and, accordingly, if such a control command is sent to the illumination system A via a control unit 11, in an unfavorable case the control gear 1 would start only with the maximum brightness and only after the control unit 10 has sent the control command the control command, change to the low brightness value.
- a certain amount of time would have to be taken into account as a reserve for a safe startup of the operating devices 1 and the control command could only be sent to the operating devices 1 after a certain time.
- control unit 10 can send out the control commands several times in succession. Thus, it can be ensured that regardless of
- a reclosing command can have different control commands for the cause. Based on a switched-off illumination system A (due to the required brightness value of 0), a brightness value greater than 0 may be required. However, it is also possible to signal a special lighting situation such as an emergency lighting operation (further examples?)
- a switch-off command can be, for example, a control command for reaching the brightness value 0, but it can also be a control command to selectively disable individual operating devices 1.
- a switch-off state or a switch-off phase can be initiated by the transmission of a switch-off command and means that at least individual operating devices 1 are switched off.
- the grid connection and network separation of the operating devices 1 from the mains supply is performed by a
- This line breaker 5 may be a switch such as a semiconductor switch or a relay.
- the mains breaker 5 can be integrated into the control unit 10 or else be driven by a control output of the control unit 10.
- the control unit 10 can control a plurality of independent network connections and thus independently of each other operating devices 1 by being able to control or integrate several network connections.
- the independent operating devices 1 can be distinguished from each other by different addresses.
- the control unit (10) can save the received control commands for the purpose of resending the reclosing command. It can either always save only the last received control command or buffer or save the entire sequence of received via the bus line 21 control commands. Thus, it can after the successful connection of the operating devices 1 sent during the off phase on the bus line 21 control commands still in retrospect send to the operating devices 1. In this way, the operating devices 1 can still be configured at a later time and receive information transmitted via control commands. Thus, a change in the configuration of the lighting system can also take place during the switch-off state of the operating devices 1. This would be the case if, for example, in an office building with sufficient daylight no lighting by the operating devices 1 is required and these are turned off, but by a user the configuration of the
- Lighting system to be adjusted.
- an adjustment during such a turn-off phase a change in configuration can be made.
- the repetition rate for the repeated transmission of a control command by the control unit 10 after switching on the network connection can be selected by the user.
- the configuration may include, for example, certain lighting scenes or patterns of behavior for the
- Lighting system and the control gear 1 determine.
- control unit 10 can autonomously carry out an adaptation of the order of the transmitted control commands to the transmitted control commands or else also add further control commands or omit certain control commands.
- a more pleasant for the observer start of the light source can be achieved when switching from a power-off state to a high brightness.
- the control unit would not immediately transmit the desired high brightness value, but rather a lower brightness value and after a time delay desired high brightness value.
- a general switch-off command can first be sent to the affected operating devices 1, and only then the desired brightness value.
- the power supply of the control unit 10 and the control units 11 can take place via a bus supply 12.
- the bus supply 12 can feed the bus line 21 by applying a transmission according to the so-called 'active low' principle.
- a transmission is permanently a level of, for example, 12V, as long as no data is transmitted.
- the level is pulled for transmitting a bit to a level below, for example, 2V 'is.
- the power supply for the control units 10 and 11 via the bus supply 12 can be maintained even during a power-off phase of the operating devices 1, as provided by the central bus supply 12 is a very efficient energy supply and the total power consumption of the lighting system in this case can be drastically reduced.
- the controller 10 may have its own power supply coupled directly to the mains supply.
- the control unit 10 can query the state of the operating devices 1 via the bus line 21. Furthermore, the control unit 10 can also be directly configured and controlled by a user via directly connected buttons or switches, through an interface to a programming device, through a touchscreen or other adjustment options. Due to the direct control option, the user can also specify control commands, such as brightness values.
- control unit 10 may be housed in a DIN busbar housing.
