DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Illumination monitoring devices according to embodiments will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the figures below,
The same components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description will be omitted. FIG. 1 shows the configuration of an illumination monitoring apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. The discharge lamp circuit employs, for example, a configuration in which electric power is supplied to the lamp L from the power supply side via the photo switch 2 and the ballast 1. The photo switch 2 opens and closes the power supply path of the lamp L based on the ambient brightness. Therefore, the lamp L is turned on when the surroundings are darkened by a predetermined amount and illumination is required, and the lamp L is turned off when it is bright in the daytime.

The main body 3 obtains electric power from the terminal a and creates and uses electric power of a voltage necessary for operation. The main body 3 is provided with abnormality detecting means 31 for detecting non-lighting due to an abnormality of the lamp L, and abnormal state data relating to the detection is given to the writing means 32. The main body 3 is provided with a storage unit 33 including, for example, a semiconductor memory. This storage means 33
The abnormal state data is stored by the writing unit 32.

On the other hand, the remote controller 4 is provided with processing instruction means 41 including a transmitter. By inputting a display instruction from the processing instruction means 41, a signal by light or radio waves is transmitted to the main body 3. This signal is received by the stored data processing means 34 including the receiver of the main body 3,
Parsed. The stored data processing means 34 detects that it is an analysis result display instruction, reads out the stored abnormal state data from the storage means 33, gives it to the display means 35, and turns off the lamp L due to an abnormality. Is displayed.

FIG. 2 shows a state during the monitoring and inspection by the above-mentioned illumination monitoring device. For example, the user goes to the place where the street light 5 is installed and gives a display instruction to the main body 3 by operating the remote controller 4. The body 3 is provided near the lamp L. In this case, since the display is made on the main body 3, there is a problem that it is difficult to see. However, in another embodiment, the case is placed at the eye level of a person, for example, a pole of the street light 5 as the fixture main body. 6 is provided and the main body 3 is installed here.
This makes the display much easier to see.

The illumination monitoring apparatus having the above configuration is actually configured as shown in FIG. The main body 3 is composed of a control unit 30 mainly composed of a computer and an attached circuit. The remote controller 4 is provided with a key input unit 43 having at least one instruction key, and a transmitter 44 that receives a key operation in the key input unit 43 and transmits a signal related to a display instruction.

On the other hand, the control section 30 includes a current transformer 21 for detecting a current flowing from the terminal c to the lamp L.
Current presence / absence data is given from the current detection unit 22 connected to. This data is taken into the processor 51 via the input port 53. A power-on / off detecting unit 23 is connected to the input port 53, receives a voltage from the terminal b, and detects that the photoswitch 2 is powered on. The detection result is also fetched by the processor 51 from the input port 53. Processor 51
If the current is not detected when the power is on, the abnormal state data is written in the main memory 52 as non-lighting due to the abnormality of the lamp L.

The processor 51 has an interface 54.
The receiver 55 is connected via. When a display instruction signal is sent from the transmitter 44 of the remote controller 4,
The receiver 55 receives this, the display instruction data is given to the processor 51 via the interface 54, and the processor 51 that analyzes the data and detects that it is a display instruction
Reads out the abnormal condition data from the main memory 52 and controls the display driver 24 via the output port 56 to drive the LE.
At D25, an abnormality display (for example, continuous lighting of the LED 25) is performed. Of course, when the data of the abnormal state is not stored in the main memory 52, the display indicating the abnormality is not displayed, and the normal display (blinking of the LED 25, etc.) is executed.

FIG. 4 shows another embodiment. In this embodiment, the remote controller 4A is provided with processing instruction means 41A for requesting data transmission, reception means 47, and display means 48. The abnormality display is performed by the remote controller 4A. The request data transmitted from the process instructing means 41A is received by the stored data processing means 34A and analyzed to detect the request. Therefore, the storage data processing means 34A reads out the abnormal state data in the storage means 33, gives it to the transmission means 36, and causes it to be transmitted.
Receiving means 47 which has received the transmitted data analyzes the contents and causes display means 48 to display the corresponding contents.

FIG. 5 shows an actual configuration corresponding to FIG. By operating the key input unit 43, request data is transmitted from the transmitter / receiver 45 to the transmitter / receiver 57, the interface 5
The route of 6 reaches the processor 51A and is analyzed. In response to this, the abnormal state data is read from the main memory 52, reaches the transmitter / receiver 45 through a route opposite to the above, is analyzed, and the corresponding display (abnormality display or normal display).
Is performed by the LED 49.

[0017]

As described above, according to the present invention, the data relating to the abnormal state detected by the abnormality detecting means is stored, read by the instruction from the remote controller and displayed on the display means. That is, it is possible to display the state of the discharge lamp on the display means at a desired time by an instruction from the remote controller, which is convenient because maintenance work can be performed in the daytime.
