| Title: |
Power and Data Track Lighting System |
| Abstract: |
A combined power and data track lighting system includes an elongated
track, having a number of longitudinal guide ways for carrying
electrically isolated power and data conductors arranged within at least
some or the guide ways. An adapter applies power to the power conductors,
and another adapter applies control data to the data conductors. An LED
luminaire contains LEDs, each of which can generate a discrete color. A
data converter converts data on the data lines to control the currents in
the individual LEDs to create a desired composite color. Quartz
luminaire, Metal-Halide luminaire, Digital Light Processor (DLP)
automated computer luminaire, and DMX controlled devices can be supported
and controlled through the track, that can be supported on trusses. The
main control data is Remote Device Management (RDM) supplied applied to
the data conductors.
