| Title: |
Panel for Controlling Lighting Scene |
| Abstract: |
A panel controlling multiple lighting intensities of a multiplicity of
lights in conjunction with a remote lighting dimmer module which utilizes
operators mechanically movable to operate potentiometers. Each
potentiometer is capable of setting an intensity level of a particular
light of the multiplicity of lights. A display is also employed which
indicates a lighting level of each of the multiplicity of lights
associated with each operator and corresponding potentiometer. The
operators and display are supported by a chassis which is mountable in an
electrical wall box. Information may be stored which defines a lighting
scene in terms of an intensity level of each light of the multiplicity of
lights which is set by the operators in the chassis. The intensity level
information may be retrieved and transported to a dimmer module which sets
the intensity level in each light. One scene may be set into the
multiplicity of lights while another scene may be previewed on the display
on the chassis.
