发明名称 METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTING POWER CYCLE CONTROL OF LIGHTING DEVICES BASED ON NETWORK PROTOCOLS
摘要 A controllable dimmer/relay used in combination with a power cycle control lighting device, wherein the controllable dimmer/relay serves as a network interface for the power cycle control lighting device. The controllable dimmer/relay is controlled by lighting commands formatted according to any of a variety of communications protocols, which instruct the controllable dimmer/relay to output one or more power cycles (interruptions in power) rather than gradual increases or decreases in power. In response to the power cycle(s) output by the controllable dimmer/relay, the power cycle control lighting device alters some aspect of the generated light (e.g., change one or more of color, color temperature, overall brightness, dynamic effect, etc.). In this manner, a power cycle control lighting device may be made responsive, via the controllable dimmer/relay, to lighting control commands formatted according to any of a variety of industry standard (e.g., DMX, Ethernet, DALI, X10) or proprietary protocols.
