Therefore, it is possible to make detailed settings such as setting a unique address for each lighting fixture by operating the remote controller, and by manually operating the push button constituting the lighting fixture side operation unit 37, manual operation will be described later. It is possible to shift to the inspection mode. The lighting fixture side display units 35 and 36 are light emitting diodes (LEDs) for notification, and are turned on to notify the state when the lamp L is abnormal or the battery 24 is abnormal. .

  The control means 10 is a so-called automatic guide light inspection control device, and includes a control device 41 and a computer 42 connected to the control device 41 as necessary. The control device 41 includes a metal housing 44 attached to the wall surface. Inside the housing 44, a breaker connected to a control device main body 45 that is a control display unit and a power supply 46 of AC 100V. 47, a battery 48, and the like. Further, the control device 41 is connected to the communication line of the communication means 12, and is always connected to a communication terminal block 51 through which a signal of a two-wire random transmission DC pulse system of plus or minus 24V is transmitted and received, and a contact input terminal to which a fire alarm facility is connected A stand 52 and a LAN terminal stand 53 for connecting the computer 42 are provided.

The display unit 55 displays the address and state of each lighting fixture 11 on, for example, a light emitting diode display device, and the operation unit 56 selects and selects the lighting fixture 11 with a push button switch. Operation to 11 is possible.

  The control means 10 continuously monitors the lighting fixtures 11 connected via the communication means 12, and automatically switches the lighting fixtures 11 according to a programmed schedule or by manual operation. In addition, weekly inspections, periodic inspections, etc. are performed, history information is recorded, and if there is an abnormality, it is displayed on the display unit 55. That is, for each lighting fixture 11, this control means 10 is constantly monitored to monitor the lamp L life, non-lighting, battery 24 abnormality, lighting circuit abnormality, and communication means abnormality, and an interval of 2 to 6 weeks. A weekly inspection set in step 3 and a statutory periodic inspection set at intervals of 3 to 12 months, lamp L abnormality, lamp L life, battery 24 abnormality, battery 24 life, and other lighting circuits Are monitored for abnormalities such as appliances and communication abnormalities, and history information is recorded for each lighting fixture 11. Even when a power failure occurs, the history information is maintained by the power of the battery 48.

  Next, the operation of the lighting fixture 11 will be described.

  Each lighting device 11 enters the interlocking mode controlled by the control means 10 when a predetermined signal is input to the communication means connection unit 31 from the communication line constituting the communication means 12 when the power is turned on, and the predetermined signal is input. Otherwise, it becomes a single mode which operates independently.

  In the interlock mode, the normal mode and the inspection mode are switched in accordance with an instruction from the control means 10. In the normal mode, when the power source A is normal, the lighting device 20 lights the lamp L with the power of the power source A and charges the battery 24. When the power source A becomes abnormal, the lighting device 20 lights the lamp L with the power of the battery 24.

On the other hand, when the inspection start signal transmitted from the control means 10 is received and the inspection mode is shifted to the inspection mode, the lighting device 20 is disconnected from the normal power source A for a specified time, and the lamp L is lit by the power of the battery 24. Then, the life of the battery 24 is determined and the normal operation of the lighting device 20 is confirmed, and the history is recorded in the control means 10. In the weekly inspection, the specified time is a short-time emergency lighting such as one minute, and the lamp L life, non-lighting, battery 24 life, and lighting circuit abnormality are monitored. In the periodic inspection, emergency lighting is performed for a rated time such as 20 minutes or 60 minutes, and the battery capacity due to the discharge of the battery 24 is confirmed.
Further, in the inspection mode, communication via the communication means 12 is performed, including the case where an instruction to shift to the normal mode is issued from the control means 10 based on the state of the fire alarm equipment (automatic fire equipment, guide light signal device), etc. Even when there is an abnormality or when the operating means 29 is operated automatically or manually, the lighting device 20 turns on the lamp L with the power of the power source A as long as the power mode A is normal, and the power source A is normal. At the same time, the battery 24 is charged. That is, when receiving a fire signal from the fire alarm facility, the control means 10 cancels the inspection mode for all the lighting fixtures 11 under inspection and shifts to the normal mode. Further, when there is an abnormality in communication via the communication means 12, that is, when the communication means connection unit 31 becomes unable to receive a signal due to a disconnection of the communication line, a failure of the control means 10 or a power failure, or the operation means 29 Even when the detection circuit 34 detects that it has been operated, since some abnormality is expected, the inspection is interrupted, the mode is changed to the normal mode, and as long as the power source A is normal, the lighting device 20 is connected to the power source A. The lamp L is turned on with electric power and the battery 24 is charged.

  Further, when the inspection is interrupted, each lighting apparatus 11 records that the inspection is interrupted. Then, when communication is normal, such as when the power supply 46 of the control device 41 of the control means 10 is restored later, the fact that an interruption has occurred from each lighting fixture 11 is transmitted to the control means 10, and the control means The ten control devices 41 record that the inspection has been interrupted as a history and display the history on the display unit 55.

  The luminaire 11 can be shifted to the inspection mode alone by directly operating the luminaire-side operation unit, and the inspection result can be displayed on the luminaire-side display unit. Even if the lighting device 11 is moved directly to the inspection mode, the inspection is interrupted in a state in which any abnormality or change in state is detected, such as an abnormality of the communication means 12 or an operation of the operation means 29, and the normal mode is set. To come back.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to automatically check each lighting fixture 11 for the lighting system 1 including the automatic inspection system for the lighting fixture 11 such as an emergency light / guide light, and to perform an inspection operation. Labor saving is possible.

  Furthermore, if there is an abnormality in communication via the communication means 12 in the inspection mode, an abnormality may also occur in the power source A. Therefore, the inspection is interrupted to return to the normal mode, and the power source A is normal. As long as the lighting device 20 turns on the lamp L with the power of the power source A and charges the battery 24, the lamp L can be turned on when the power source A is abnormal without the battery 24 being consumed. It can be lit for as long as possible.

  Similarly, when the operation means 29 such as a wall switch is operated in the inspection mode, for example, when a state change occurs, for example, when the wall switch is turned on, an abnormality may occur in the power source A. Therefore, the inspection is interrupted to return to the normal mode, and as long as the power source A is normal, the lighting device 20 lights the lamp L with the power of the power source A and charges the battery 24 without draining the battery 24. In preparation for the occurrence of an abnormality in the power supply A, the lamp L can be lit for as long as possible when the power supply A is abnormal.

  In the above embodiment, the control means 10 records the state of each lighting fixture 11 as a history, for example, records that the lamp L is not lit. Here, after the lamp L of the predetermined lighting fixture 11 is not lit, after the abnormality occurs in the communication means 12, and the communication means 12 returns to normal again, the lamp is temporarily turned off by the battery 24 due to the power failure of the power source A. When L is turned on and then the power source A is restored, or when the inspection switch is turned on / off, the lamp L is turned on once a signal for canceling the non-lighting state is transmitted. After that, it is recorded that the lamp L is not lit again, and a plurality of histories are recorded even though there is no change in the non-lighted state, and the interpretation of the history becomes complicated.

  Therefore, as long as the lamp L does not change the non-lighting state, each lighting fixture 11 does not transmit a signal for canceling the non-lighting state when the other state changes, or the control means 10 After receiving the signal indicating that the lamp L is not lit and recording it as a history, until the lamp L is turned on, that is, as long as the lamp L is not lit, the other states Even if there is a change in the above, it is possible to easily read the history accurately by keeping the record without recording that the lamp L is not lit.

  In addition, as described above, an emergency light or a guide light, such as an emergency light or a guide light, automatically turns on the lamp L with the battery 24 and automatically checks the battery life by checking according to the check command signal of the control means 10 connected by the communication means 12. The illuminating equipment 11 for disaster prevention equipped with an inspection system is equipped with a human sensor (human body sensor) that is a human body detection unit, and when a person is absent, the lamp L is dimmed to 25%, for example, or completely turned off. Thus, energy saving can be achieved.

  Furthermore, when each luminaire 11 is provided with a human body detection function in this way, each luminaire 11 transmits a signal indicating the presence or absence of the human body to the control means 10, thereby providing a luminaire for disaster prevention. A security system can be constructed using 11 automatic inspection systems.

  That is, the battery 24 which is an emergency power source is mounted, and the communication means connection unit 31 which is a transmission unit is provided in the emergency lighting apparatus 11 which lights the lamp L with a commercial power source in normal times and the emergency power source in an emergency time, In the automatic inspection system that transmits an inspection instruction to each lighting fixture 11 by the control means 10 and monitors the state, a human sensor that is a human body detection unit such as an infrared sensor is provided in some or all of the lighting fixtures 11 When detected, a human body detection signal is transmitted from the communication means connection unit 31 to the control device 41 of the control means 10. In other words, the control device 41 that has received the human body detection signal from each luminaire 11 serving as a terminal causes the control device 41 or a monitoring server that controls the single or plural control devices 41 to display human body information and function as a security system. be able to.

  In addition, the control device 41, a monitoring server that supervises the control device 41, or a host device such as an integrated monitoring system that monitors the entire building system, sets and selects a mode such as a security mode for the automatic inspection system. You can also.

  For example, when the control device 41 of the control means 10 is switched from a non-security mode such as daytime to a security mode such as nighttime, when a human body detection signal is received from the lighting device 11, an abnormality is displayed on the control device 41, or the host device An abnormal signal can also be sent to. Further, for example, when the control device 41 is switched to the security mode, the security mode is switched to all the lighting devices 11 connected to the control device 41 or the lighting device 11 having the human body detection unit. When the lighting device 11 having the human body detection unit detects the human body only in this security mode, the control device 41 is notified to the control device 41. It can also be configured to notify the abnormality. With this configuration, it is possible to reduce the load on the communication means 12 in a state other than the security mode, and to improve the transmission efficiency of normal functions such as setting the inspection mode.

  In each of the above embodiments, each lighting fixture 11 can include various types of lighting devices 20. For example, when the lighting fixture 11 is an emergency light, the lighting device 20 can be used by switching between two lighting devices for normal use and emergency use.
