System, Apparatus and Method for Light Diffusion and Testing for Fixtures

摘要

A system, apparatus and method for light diffusion and testing fixtures. The system includes remote derangement controls to test the operation of a battery backup system associated with a fixture. The light fixture may incorporate light diffusion features including back mounted light sources, channeled corners in a translucent material and/or pitted surfaces of a translucent material. The system may further include remote monitoring elements and/or sensors to evaluate proper operation of the light diffusion characteristics of a fixture during operation of the battery backup system.

主权项

1. A system for remotely testing fixtures comprising:
a light fixture designed to emit an approximately uniform light distribution pattern; a power source connected to the light fixture; a test control operable to disable transmission of power from the power source to the light fixture, wherein the test control is positioned in a location remote from the light fixture; and a power backup system comprising an alternative power source and a backup control operable transition between the power source and the alternative power source, wherein the backup control transitions to the alternative power source based upon a loss of power from the power source.
