    摘要: An illumination system including a master control unit, a device unit, a driving circuit unit, and an illumination unit is provided. The master control unit receives an input signal and outputs a control signal by performing a program operation processing to the input signal. The device unit analyzes the control signal so as to obtain a color temperature setting value and a brightness setting value, and generates two output signals according to the brightness setting value and two color temperature adjusting signals determined by the color temperature setting value. The illumination unit has at least two lamps with different color temperatures. The driving circuit unit receives and converts the two output signals so as to proportionally output two driving signals to respectively drive the two lamps. One of the two output signals is enabled after the other of the two output signals is disabled for a predetermined time.

    摘要: A driving apparatus and a driving method of a backlight module are provided. The backlight module includes multiple LEDs. The driving apparatus includes at least one thermal sensor, an optical sensor, and a processor. The thermal sensor is for detecting a working temperature of the LEDs. The optical sensor is for detecting brightness and color of the backlight module after a calibration function is enabled, to obtain difference values of the detected brightness and color with respect to predetermined brightness and color. The processor is for providing at least one initial thermal compensation table, to determine working currents of the LEDs associated with the working temperature. The processor further is for calibrating a content of the initial thermal compensation table corresponding with a current working temperature of the LEDs and storing the calibrated thermal compensation table as the initial thermal compensation table after the calibration function is enabled.

    摘要: An illumination system and an operation method thereof are provided. The illumination system includes a first controller and a first lighting device. The first controller is capable of emitting a wireless control signal. The first lighting device is capable of receiving the wireless control signal, adjusting a light emitting state thereof according to the wireless control signal, and accordingly emitting a wireless feedback signal. When the first controller does not receive the wireless feedback signal within a predetermined time or receives a wrong wireless feedback signal after the first controller emitted the wireless control signal to the first lighting device, the first controller emits the wireless control signal again.

    摘要: A storage emulator and method thereof are disclosed. The storage emulator allows a host system to access a storage unit connected to a storage system as if the storage unit is directly coupled to the host system. The storage emulator includes a virtual storage emulating module, a storage-managing unit, and a communicating module. The virtual storage emulating module emulates at least one virtual storage unit corresponding to the storage unit on the host system and receives a storage accessing command from the host system. The storage-managing unit identifies the storage accessing command as either a self-sustaining type command or a non-self-sustaining type command. The communicating module communicates with the storage unit of the storage system via the network. If the storage accessing generates a self-sustaining command response in accordance with the storage accessing command and returns the self-sustaining command response to the host system directly. If the storage accessing command is identified as the non-self-sustaining type command, the storage-managing unit forwards the storage accessing command to the storage system via the network, receives a command response in accordance with the storage accessing command from the storage system, and returns the command response to the host system.
