| Title: |
Light Control System |
| Abstract: |
A light control system for selectively controlling the light intensity
levels of a plurality of light groups, each group including one or more
lights, is disclosed. The system comprises a control for generating a
parallel binary-coded signal representative of a predetermined current
level to be applied to a particular light group; a signal generator for
providing (1) a unique and predetermined serially-coded address signal
corresponding to the particular light group and, (2) a serially-coded data
signal representative of the current level in response to the parallel
binary-coded signal, and; a plurality of receivers, at least one for each
light group for applying the current level to the particular light group
only in response to the address signal and data signal. A common wire bus
for transmitting the address and data signals from the signal generator to
each of the receivers is utilized to substantially reduce the wiring
required.
