The lighting device 100 can set a network address using a remote control and can be connected to a control device through a network. The lighting device 100 is not assigned an address when shipped from the factory and can be installed randomly without address distinction, and the user can set or modify the network address and settings of the lighting device 100 using a remote control. The remote control can transmit the address and various setting information of the lighting device 100 according to the user's control, and the lighting device 100 can store the received address and setting information. For example, the remote control can transmit light emission pattern setting information to the lighting device 100 that can set the color production and color change production of the lighting device 100 according to the user's control, and the lighting device 100 can transmit the lighting device 100 to the corresponding device. You can save the pattern setting information set in .

In one embodiment, the control device may be connected to at least one lighting device through a network to form a personal area network (PAN). Control devices and lighting devices can form a wired network through the bus-type DMX512 protocol, or wirelessly through wireless protocols such as Zigbee, Bluetooth, and WLAN. It can also be formed.

The switching unit 110 includes at least one switch, and the switch can be switched on/off. In one embodiment, the switching unit 110 may correspond to a DIP switch. The DIP switch may include switches corresponding to the number of bits (e.g., n) assigned to the network address, and the switches can be turned on/off, respectively, so that each bit is set to '0' or '1'. You can. For example, when the network address set to the lighting device 100 is n bits, the switching unit 110 includes n switches, and each of the n switches is switched on/off to make n bits. The bits can be set to '0' or '1', respectively.

The first network address generator 120 generates a first network address according to the on/off state of each switch of the switching unit 110. In one embodiment, the first network address generator 120 may generate a first network address composed of n bits.

The remote control signal receiver 130 receives a key signal from a remote control and generates data corresponding to the key signal. The remote control transmits a key signal corresponding to the key selected according to the user's control. For example, the remote control can encode a code value corresponding to a key selected under the user's control and transmit the encoded data on a carrier.

In one embodiment, the remote control signal receiver 130 may correspond to an infrared signal receiver that receives an infrared signal from an infrared remote control. The remote control transmits a key signal corresponding to the key input by the user, and the remote control signal receiver 110 may receive the signal and decode the data included in the received signal.

When the remote control signal receiver 130 receives a key signal corresponding to the function of setting the network address of the lighting device from the remote control, the control unit 150 controls the remote control signal receiver 130 to wait for a key signal input from the remote control. do. When a preset number of key signals are received, the control unit 150 generates a second network address through the second network address generator 140.

The second network address generator 140 generates a second network address based on data received from the remote control signal receiver 130.

In one embodiment, the remote control signal receiver 130 continuously receives a binary key signal ('0' or '1') corresponding to the number of bits (e.g., n) assigned to the network address from the remote control, and 2 The network address generator 140 may generate an n-bit second network address based on continuously received key signals.

In another embodiment, the remote control signal receiver 130 receives at least one key signal from the remote control, and the second network address generator 140 generates a value corresponding to the received key signal as the number of bits assigned to the network address ( For example, n) may be converted to a binary number to generate an n-bit second network address. For example, when a key signal with key values of '3' and '4' is received, the second network address generator 140 converts the value of '34' to binary and creates a second network address of '00100010'. You can also create .

In one embodiment, the second network address generator 140 may automatically generate a second network address by identifying the received key value. For example, when it is identified that n binary key signals are continuously received, the second network address generator 140 generates an n-bit second network address based on the continuously received key signals, and generates a binary number If a key signal other than A second network address of n bits can be generated.

When the on/off state of the switch of the switching unit 110 changes, the control unit 150 sets the first network address generated by the first network address generator 120 as the network address of the lighting device, and sets the remote control When the signal receiver 130 receives a key signal from the remote control, the second network address generated by the second network address generator 140 is set as the network address of the lighting device 100.

It may be returned to the first network address generated accordingly. For example, when receiving a key signal that returns the network address of the lighting device 100 to the first network address from the remote control, the control unit 150 changes the first network address to the network address of the lighting device 100. You can set it.

In one embodiment, if the key signal received from the remote control while waiting for a key signal input for network address setting deviates from a preset rule, the control unit 150 ignores the received key signal and switches the switching unit 110. The first network address generated according to the switching state is set as the address of the lighting device 100. If the first network address is already set as the address of the lighting device 100, the control unit 150 maintains the address as is. For example, when a preset number of key signals are not input during a preset time, when more than a preset number of key signals are input, or when a key signal outside the preset range is input, the control unit 150 controls the received key signal. The signal can be ignored and the first network address can be set to the address of the lighting device 100.

It is possible to store whether it is a second network address or not.

Alternatively, if the key signal received from the remote control deviates from the preset rule, the control unit 150 displays an address setting error state through the display unit (not shown), indicating that the remote control key signal has been input but an error has occurred in the address setting. It can be indicated that there is.

In one embodiment, the control unit 150 may transmit a command signal for automatically assigning a network address set to the lighting device 100 and a network address of another lighting device connected to the control device to the control device through the network. When a network address automatic assignment command signal is received, the control device automatically generates and assigns a network address to at least one other lighting device connected to the control device through a network in addition to the lighting device 100 that has received the network address. You can. The control device may transmit a network address each assigned to at least one other lighting device connected to the control device.
