Definitions
- the invention relates to a ballast for at least one light source and in particular an LED that can be largely and essentially freely configured by a user.
- the document DE 10 2014 200 297 A1 shows a control gear and a communication adapter for outdoor lighting systems. In particular, the transfer of configuration data via one of several interfaces is shown.
- the document US 2012/0086345 A1 shows a lighting system in which various components of the lighting system communicate with one another by means of encrypted optical signals.
- the document U.S. 2015/0257229 A1 shows a lighting system in which the various components of the lighting system communicate with one another by means of encrypted wireless radio communication.
- the ballast has a programmable Microprocessor that has a relatively large computing power and in different ways, ie can communicate with the aid of a variety of interfaces.
- a DALI, SPI, DSI, WLAN, Bluetooth, LAN or USB interface can be provided for this purpose.
- Both sensors and signal transmitters can be connected to the ballast, and the microprocessor is connected to the interfaces in order, for example, to also evaluate sensor signals and signals from signal transmitters. Based on incoming signals from sensors and/or signal transmitters, or signals coming in via the interfaces, the microprocessor can then, for example, change the operating properties of the ballast and thus, for example, influence the light emission or other functionalities of the ballast. Communication with external communication partners is possible, for example, via LAN, Bluetooth, USB, DALI, WLAN, ....
- the ballast has a programming interface via which application software can be transmitted to a memory unit provided in the ballast.
- This is a software and/or software component that can be executed and run by the microprocessor and that can be part of a firmware and/or the operating system or can be executed by it.
- the application software is then executed, inter alia, by the microprocessor.
- the operating system manages in particular a memory area divided into a user area ("user space") and a Operating system core area (“kernel space”) can be divided. This division serves to allow protection of parts of the memory area.
- the operating system kernel area is then reserved for executing the operating system kernel, while the user area is provided for executing application software and/or drivers for interfaces and/or devices connected to the microprocessor.
- the memory area can be part of a memory provided by the memory unit.
- a user can influence and define the manner in which the ballast behaves, or how, for example, signals from sensors or signal transmitters are evaluated and used to control the at least one light source will. It can also be configured how an evaluation for controlling components connected to the ballast via the interfaces is processed. In particular, the evaluation and processing of input signals can be configured or changed by means of the application software and, in particular, lighting control can be defined as a function of detected signals.
- the invention thus provides a ballast and a luminaire according to the independent claims. Developments of the invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims.
- a microprocessor 2 is therefore provided in the ballast V, which microprocessor is connected to at least one memory unit 3 so that it can access the memory unit 3 and read data from there and write data to it.
- the microprocessor 2 (e.g. ARM Cortex-A5x, ARM Cortex-A7x, ...) is preferably provided on a circuit board 1, which preferably has at least one edge, and on which the memory unit 3 can also be mounted.
- the microprocessor 2 and/or the memory unit 3 can also be provided on a separate circuit board which is connected to the circuit board 1, for example by means of a socket connection.
- the board has a programming interface P on the at least one edge and at least one signaling interface S, which can also be attached to the at least one edge of the board, but also to another edge of the board.
- At least the programming interface P is accessible from outside the ballast.
- the programming interface for a wired or set up wireless communication.
- the programming interface P can be a radio interface (Bluetooth, WLAN, ZigBee, RFID, ...) or a wired (parallel, RS323, USB, JTAG, GPIO, ...) interface. It is therefore not always necessary for the programming interface P to be exposed to the outside, for example. Rather, for example, the programming interface P can also be accessed inductively from the outside in order, for example, to transmit data from a programming device 4 to the memory unit 3 and/or the microprocessor 2 by means of the programming interface P. This ensures that the ballast V can be designed to suit its place of use and can have a prescribed degree of protection (International Protection Code (IP) certification), for example.
- IP International Protection Code
- the programming interface P can be exposed to the outside.
- the programming interface P can thus be accessed by means of a wired connection.
- a programming device 4 can thus be connected to the programming interface P by means of a cable and data can be transmitted to or from the memory unit 3 and/or the microprocessor 2 .
- Data transmitted via the programming interface P can be used to configure the microprocessor 2 or its information processing.
- application software A also called “app” can be transferred to or into the storage unit will.
- This application software A is then executed by the microprocessor 2, it being understood that the microprocessor 2 can also execute a large number of application software components.
- the programming interface P and the signaling interface S can, for example, also use the same hardware and only be separated in terms of software.
- the application software A stored in the memory unit 3 and executed by the microprocessor 2 can then influence one of the following functionalities of the ballast V: For example, the interaction or the evaluation of sensor data supplied by sensors interacting with the ballast V can be defined or changed. In particular, the sensors can transmit signals via the signaling interface S to the ballast. These signals are then evaluated by the at least one application software A and processed according to a definition specified by the application software A.
- the application software A can also be used to specify how the ballast V interacts with the connected signal sources (sensors, signal transmitters, ). In particular, it can be determined which signals are evaluated or processed and with which type of signal generator the ballast V works together. In this way, the signal sources can be defined whose signals are evaluated at all. Signal sources or interfaces can also be blocked or released and it is possible, for example, that the range of functions of the ballast V can be expanded or restricted in this way.
- the at least one application software A can also influence the controller with which the ballast V controls the at least one light source, for example.
- the lighting means can thus be controlled by the application software A, in particular depending on the incoming signals from the signal sources.
- an application software A which is stored in the memory unit 3 of the ballast V, can of course also change the evaluation of the signals.
- the application software A can also be used to change the functionality provided by the ballast Vv, and In particular, provided interfaces can be activated or deactivated. The range of functions of the ballast V can also be controlled in this way.
- communication protocols that are provided for communication between the ballast and communication partners, for example other ballasts, operating devices or central control units, can be activated or deactivated. In this way, the ballast V can be adapted for different application scenarios, for example by only requiring individual communication protocols.
- the functionality of the ballast V can also be expanded if additional communication protocols need to be added or deactivated. This can be the case, for example, if the application scenario for the ballast changes. Overall, the application software therefore allows the operating data and/or operating parameters of the ballast V to be recorded, defined, evaluated and changed.
- the at least one application software A in the memory unit 3 can also be updated and changed. This can then also be done via the programming interface P.
- more than one application software A it is possible for more than one application software A to be stored in the memory unit 3 and executed by the microprocessor.
- additional features of the ballast V can be activated or deactivated. For example, it is possible that an application only provides a basic functionality, while another application software A additional functionalities of the ballast V deactivated or activated.
- the application software A can also provide or change an application programming interface. This application programming interface can then be used to add further software components to the application software, which also relate to functionalities of the ballast, and in particular to activate or deactivate functions.
- the microprocessor 2 preferably executes a hardware abstraction subsystem (HAL, Hardware Abstraction Layer).
- HAL Hardware Abstraction Layer
- the application software then preferably accesses the programming interface and/or the signaling interface via the hardware abstraction subsystem.
- the programming interface can be a wireless or wired interface.
- the signaling interface S can likewise be a DALI or DSI, SPI or I 2 C interface.
- the programming interface P can also be designed in such a way that programming or the transmission of application software is initially not possible.
- a programming interface that is initially blocked in this way can require that a code or an activation key, for example a cryptographic key, must first be transmitted to the ballast in order to activate the programming interface P.
- the programming interface P can only be activated (for example for a predetermined period of time) if a corresponding activation of the programming interface P has taken place.
- the application software can also be transmitted in encrypted form via the programming interface, with the ballast having a first code or activation key, eg a cryptographic key, which is stored in the ballast.
- this first code or activation key is a public key that can be used to decrypt the application software transmitted on the programming interface.
- this first code or activation key eg cryptographic key
- the programmer may have a second code or activation key, eg cryptographic key, which is a type of private key and which preferably can be used for both encryption and decryption.
- the programming device can enable encrypted transmission of the application software via the programming interface, with the ballast being able to receive and read out this encrypted application software.
- the programming interface p can only be activated if, for example, a programming device 4 is positioned at a certain distance from the programming interface P or is connected to the programming interface P.
- the programming device 4 can then automatically receive an identifier or a key via the programming interface P transmitted to the microprocessor 2, which is recognized by this (e.g. using NFC).
- the microprocessor 2 can then allow data to be transferred to the memory unit 3 and thus enable the programming interface P to be activated.
