摘要： In a discharge generator, a control unit switchably performs a continuous mode and a burst mode based on determination of whether target output power is higher than discharge start power. The burst mode alternately performs a discharge mode and a non-discharge mode. The control unit causes a burst ratio to be set to a value expressed by the following equation b=Po*/Pfs0 where b represents the burst ratio, Po* represents the target output power, and Pfs0 represents the discharge start power. The burst ratio is defined as a ratio of the discharge period to a burst period. The burst period is the sum of the discharge period and the stop period. The control unit causes, in the burst mode, the switch circuit to output, as the output power, the discharge start power during the discharge period.

摘要： An apparatus and method employ a pair of input terminals to receive an input voltage from a charging power source for charging a backup power supply for an emergency lighting system, the input voltage corresponding to any one of a plurality of nominal operating voltages. A voltage level detector produces, in response to the received input voltage, an input voltage level signal indicating which of the nominal operating voltages is being received. A temperature detector determines whether the temperature of the backup power supply exceeds a threshold and produces a temperature signal in response thereto. A heater includes a plurality of heating elements, and is activated to heat the backup power supply when the temperature of the backup power supply is less than the threshold. The input voltage level signal determines which of the heating elements is activated.

摘要： An improved LED lighting system is provided for overhead ceiling lighting, as well as for other uses. The LED lighting system comprises elongated linear lamps having an LED luminary as a source of illumination and configured to operate as a node of an automated networked lighting system. The linear LED lamps have internal modular network connectors and control components so that they can receive control data and power signals over a single network cable according to a standardized power and data network communications architecture such as Ethernet. The system includes connector assemblies designed to securely mount the networkable linear LED lamps to conventional tube lamp lighting fixtures or to another support housing and to provide integrated power and data connectivity to internal components of the lamps. In one form, the disclosed system includes a network enabled snap-fit connector assembly mounted to a lighting fixture and configured to provide Ethernet power and data connectivity to the lamp. The LED lamps have first and second mechanical connectors at opposite ends of the lamp body, and the snap-fit connectors are configured to secure the lamps to an overhead lighting fixture or other support structure as an incident of the lamp ends moving relative to the mounting connectors in a substantially straight path that is transverse to the length of the body into an engaged position. The snap-fit connectors are also configured to form a network connection with an internal modular network connector associated with the lamp with the lamp mounted in its operative state on a support. In another form, a clipping mechanism is provided for mounting linear networkable LED lamps to an overhead grid ceiling system.
