Lighting system

摘要

The lighting system includes a plurality of lighting apparatuses and a controller configured to control the lighting apparatuses. Upon receiving a random number generation instruction from the controller, the lighting apparatus generates a first random number and a second random number by using a random number generation unit, and counts synchronization signals sent from the controller. When acknowledging that the counted number of the synchronization signals is equal to the first random number, the lighting apparatus sends the second random number to the controller. The controller identifies the lighting apparatuses based on the second random numbers respectively received from the lighting apparatuses, and uniquely allocates mutually different addresses to the respective identified lighting apparatuses.

1. A lighting system comprising:
a plurality of lighting apparatuses; and a controller configured to control the plurality of lighting apparatuses, wherein each of the lighting apparatuses includes:
a random number generation unit configured to generate a random number;a first communication unit configured to communicate with the controller;a light source; anda lighting control unit configured to light the light source, and the controller includes:
an address setting unit configured to allocate addresses to the respective lighting apparatuses; anda second communication unit configured to communicate with each of the lighting apparatuses, and each of the lighting apparatuses is configured to
upon receiving a random number generation instruction from the controller, generate a first random number and a second random number by using the random number generation unit, andcount synchronization signals transmitted from the controller, andupon acknowledging that a counted number of the synchronization signals is equal to the first random number, send the second random number to the controller, and the controller is configured to
identify the lighting apparatuses based on the second random numbers respectively received from the lighting apparatuses, andallocate uniquely the mutually different addresses to the respective identified lighting apparatuses.
