Description
A METHOD FOR OPERATING MULTIPOINT CONTROL
SYSTEM
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
100011 This invention generally relates to a method for operating a multipoint control system. The invention more particularly relates to a method for operating a multipoint control system with serial data stream, especially is used for controlling lighting system such as LED lighting system.
Description of the Related Art
100021 At present, there are three kinds of method to drive lighting device.
One is that utilizing a control box for all of the lighting devices which coupled by several electric cables. This architecture is simple but one problem is a mount of cables is needed when a lots of lighting devices or distance between lighting device and the control box is too far, which costs too much. The second is common addressing bus architecture. The system is divided into several buses, each buses couple several lighting devices, each lighting device includes a control circuit and an unique ID, the system could work once power source and signal are provided. Common addressing bus architecture, however, includes several shortages such as a mount of lighting devices need setting different IDs, additional switches for controlling, EPROM cost, additional setting procedure, replacement of IDs when maintenance, etc. The third is serially connected controlling architecture. A lighting system includes a main control device to control several lighting devices, which could be divided into several sub-system coupled serially when the controlled point are far away from the main control device. Each sub-system serially connects each other, the main control device uses characteristic of shift registers to control data when and which device is transmitted to. Besides, a register signal is used to inform each controlled lighting device to capture data. In this way, it can simplify all of system in cable connection, setting and maintenance.
10003] Referring to FIG. 1, it is a schematic diagram of a conventional control circuit of a serial connected lighting device. In fact, it is the third architecture described as above. In FIG. 1, it only shows five lighting device lOla -lOle, cable signals 102 and 103 are the least need comprises data line DAT, clock line CLK, latch signal LE, output enable OE for brightness control, power source VDD and ground GND. Each of lighting devices lOla-101 e coupled together by the connection signal 103.
f0004J Referring to FIG. 2, it is a block diagram of a lighting device shown in FIG. 1. There are only, but not limited to, four circuitry for explanation. Signal group 210 is input signal and signal group 211 is output signal. Four D type latches 203a -203d construct a S-R shift register which receives a clock CLKJ, stores DAT! sequentially into the latches 203a - 203d and outputs inner data to the next lighting device through another data line DATAO.
100051 After data shifting, the latch signal LEI drives four D type latches 203a -203d to output data to another group D type latches 202a -202d, then the LED driving circuit 201 drives the outside LED 213a -213c, the buffer 206 is an output buffer for buffering data signals. Besides, output buffer may be built in some system for transmitting OEI, LEI and CLKJ -which -ex-tend -distance between-each of serially-connected--devices by amplifying data signal and clock signal. But the data latch signal is needed because of the data shifting. Therefore, three signal lines are needed between one point and another. It costs more and the reliability is lower when there are lots of point and far distance between these points. To improve this architecture, one method called clock fail detect is used to drive lighting device serially connected system. This kind of system needs to stop clock signal unnaturally and also limits the application of frequency of clock signal. In addition, it needs to retransmit all of data even though only one point needs update.
(0006] The second architecture is a system called DMX-512 or 12C.
Each one of points needs a preset address, for example, which set by external DIP switches or by a programmable non-volatile memory. But setting is inconvenient and also causes high cost when maintain a part of system. An external addressing method and address coordination mechanism is provided, but still increases cost and complexity of design.
(00071 It is understood that a method for operating a multipoint system is needed in this market. The method is expected low cost, needs less control signals and selectively random addressing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[00201 Several exemplary embodiments of the invention are described with reference to FIGs. 3 through 7, which generally relate to a method for operating a multipoint control system. It is to be understood that the following disclosure provides various different embodiments as examples for implementing different features of the invention.

100251 (4) retrieving the first data packet corresponding to the first address by each of the interpretive units according to the first address, the first length message. Because each of controlled units is serially connected, the first data packet corresponding to each of controlled units arrives in different time slot. For synchronization, the controller may selectively transmit the first data packet which has long propagation delay before transmit the first data packet having short propagation delay.
[00261 (5) enabling each of the execution units included in each of the interpretive units according to content of each of the first data packets.
Each of the controlled unit calculates time of arrival of the first data packet selectively based on first address, the first length message and propagation delay between stages to achieve action synchronously.
[0027] (6) End of this procedure.
100281 Referring to FIG. 4, it is a schematic diagram of a multipoint control system according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. is a schematic diagram of a first data information stream according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer FIG. 3 to FIG. 5 at the same time. In FIG. 4, a multipoint control system 100 is provided. The multipoint control system 100 includes a plurality of controlled units 1001 -lOOn (for example, the controlled unit includes a LED driver and LED).
Each of the controlled unit 1001 -lOOn includes an execution unit 1101 - 1 iOn (for example, LED) and an interpretive unit 1201 -120n, each of interpretive unit 1201 -120n includes a data processing unit 1301 -130n and a memory unit 1401 -140n. A controller 150 (for example, a control IC) transmits a data stream as shown in FIG. 5. The data stream includes a first start packet 1510 and a plurality of first data packet 1511 -151 n, wherein the packet 1511 belongs to the last stage of controlled units. The first start packet is followed by the packet 1511. The last transmitted packet 151 n belongs to the controlled unit directly connected to the controller 150. The first packets 1511 -151 n includes first red light information 1511 r -1511 nr, first green light 1511g -l5ing and first blue light information l5llb -l5lnb. The first start packet 1510 includes a first leading message 15101, a first address 15102 and a first length information 15103, wherein the information stream 170 is composed of a clock signal 172 and a data signal 171 or the information stream 171 is composed of signals which could be --decoded-to the-clock signal 1 7-Z and -the data-signal-1-7 -1.-Each of interpretive units 1201 -120n makes the data processing unit 1301 -130n to modify the first address 15102 and transmit to the next stage. Each of the interpretive units retrieves a first data packet 1511 -151 n corresponding to a first address 15102 according to the first address 15102 and the first length information 15103, and stores first data packet 1511 -151 n in the memory units 1401 -I 40n. It is noted that counting of each of data processing unit 1301 -I 30n is different because the interpretive unit 1201 -I 20n refers the first leading message 15101. That means every one of the controlled units 1001 -lOOn has different address. Each one of the interpretive units 1201 - 1 20n drives each of execution units 1101 -liOn according to the content of each of the first data packets 1511 -15 in. This invention, in this way, is provided to transmit a first data stream 151 to a multipoint control system 100 which could address and drive the controlled units 1001 -lOOn soon and decrease complexity of addressing of the controlled units 1001 -lOOn.
Besides, every one of the controlled unit 1001 -lOOn could operate synchronously. Even if the data stream is not arranged as above, each of the controlled unit can calculates time of arrival of the first data packet selectively based on first address 15102, the first length message 15103 and propagation delay between stages to achieve action synchronously.
(00291 Referring to FIG. 6, it is a schematic diagram of a second data information stream according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Please also refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4. In this embodiment, a plurality of controlled units 1001 -lOOn are addressed by the first leading message 15101 and the first address 15102. For example, if a user wants to change status of one of the controlled units (ex. the unit 1003), the controller 150 only transmits a second data stream 161 to the interpretive units 1201 -I 20n, wherein the second data stream 161 includes a second start packet 1610 and at least one second data packet 16-13. The second data packet 1613 includes second red light information 1613r, second green light 16l3g and second blue light information 161 3b. The second start packet 1610 includes a second leading message 16101, a second address 16102 and a number change information 16103. Each of interpretive units 1201 -1 20n receives the second leading message 16101, makes the data processing unit 1301 -I 30n to modify the second address 16102 and transmits to the next stage.
Each interpretive units 1201 -I 20n retrieves the second data packet 1613 to enable each of execution units 1101 -liOn according to the address stored in the memory unit 1401 -I 40n and the second address 16102. By doing so, it needs not to transmit all of data packet for controlling one of the controlled units, it needs only repeat the steps as described above.
100301 Refemng to FIG. 7, it is a flow chart for illustrating a method for operating a multipoint control system according to another embodiment of the present invention. The method comprises the steps as follow: (0031] (11) providing the multipoint control system, wherein the multipoint control system includes a plurality of controlled units (for example, LED driver and LED) serially connected, each of the controlled units has a execution unit and an interpretive unit, each of the interpretive unit has a data processing unit and a memory unit.
