| Title: |
Microprocessor Controlled Lamp Flashing System with Cooldown Protection |
| Abstract: |
The microprocessor controlled lamp flashing system includes a plurality of
flash lamp assemblies for providing lighting effects in response to input
control signals from a central processor. The control signals are provided
in a data packet with intensity and address signals, and each flash lamp
assembly includes a microprocessor which controls a flash control circuit
for a flash lamp. Each microprocessor is connected to a preset address
circuit which causes the microprocessor to respond to a unique address
signal in the data packet and register the intensity signal associated
with the unique address signal. The microprocessor controls cooldown of
the flash lamp by registering intensity values and deactivating the flash
control circuit for a determined cooldown time when the intensity values
registered in a time period exceed a predetermined threshold value.
