摘要： A control relay circuit and method for controlling a relay having a coil, for use, in particular, in operation of a light fixture circuit having an HID lamp. The relay control circuit has an input for receiving a control voltage signal and a voltage storage element connected across the input. The voltage storage element develops a voltage level as a function of time in response to the control voltage signal. A thyristor circuit, a switching element and the coil of the relay form a series circuit that is connected in parallel to voltage storage element A switch controller is connected in parallel to the voltage storage element and is also connected to the switching element. In response to the control voltage being received at said input, the switch controller activates the switching element to a conductive state at a first voltage level across the voltage storage element and the thyristor changes from a non-conductive state to a conductive state at a second voltage level across the voltage storage element, the first voltage level being less than the second voltage level. In response to the control voltage being removed from the input, the switch controller activates the switching element to a non-conductive state at a third voltage level across the voltage storage element thereby changing the thyristor from the conductive state to the non-conductive state thereof, the third voltage level being less than the second voltage level. The relay is energized at the second voltage level and is deenergized at the third voltage level.

摘要： A dimming control for a high intensity lighting system uses a single additional control wire for control of the dimming function. The lighting system operates on multi-phase power. A transmitter for transmitting a control signal over the single control wire is connected between two of the phases of the multi-phase power supply, or between one phase and neutral. The transmitter, upon the occurrence of a predetermined condition, transmits a control signal to the single control wire. The control signal is a rectified portion of the power supply. The predetermined condition is motion as sensed by a motion sensor, operation of a timer, or operation of a manual switch. A receiver connected to the control line receives the control signal and switches the light to a low light output mode. The is accomplished by changing the capacitance of the ballast circuit for the light. Each lamp of the lighting system has a receiver connected to the single control wire.

摘要： A power line carrier controlled lighting system connected to an AC power line. The system has: at least one motion detector for detecting at least one predetermined parameter in a detection zone of the motion detector, the motion detector outputting at least one detect signal in response to the predetermined parameter; at least one transmitter for transmitting during a first predetermined time period a power line carrier signal on the AC power line indicative of the detect signal; at least one receiver receiving the power line carrier signal on the AC power line and outputting at least one control signal indicative of the power line carrier signal during a second predetermined time period, the receiver having an AGC circuit for providing substantial noise immunity so that the receiver reliably recognizes the power line carrier signal; and at least one light in a predetermined area and having at least two different light intensity levels, the light having a switching circuit for switching between the light intensity levels, the switching circuit being activated by the control signal. The power line carrier signal is a digital signal and the AGC circuit determines a logical one/zero reference level relative to noise on the power line.
