    摘要: A lighting test method that includes connecting a housing including driver electronics and a junction box to a main power source. The main power source is connected to a main power connector in the junction box. The driver electronics includes a first terminal. The method further includes connecting a power testing module to the first terminal to the driver electronics to determine whether the main power source is correctly connected to the main power connector in the junction box. The method further includes replacing the power testing module with a second terminal of a light engine housing. Connecting the first and second terminals provides that the driver electronics are in electrical communication with a light engine within the light engine housing.

    摘要: A light structure including a first housing having a light engine including at least one lighting scheme comprised of LEDs; and a second housing for containing driver electronics. The driver electronics including at least a mixing integrated circuit (IC) for controlling current to the at least one lighting scheme, and a near field communication (NFC) circuit having a near field communication (NFC) receiver and memory for storing instructions for sending pulse width modulation (PWM) signals from the NFC circuit to the mixing integrated circuit. The NFC receiver can receive an external command signal that the instructions stored in the memory of the NFC circuit employ to provide for an NFC control signal including at least one of the PWM signals to the mixing integrated circuit (IC). The mixing integrated circuit (IC) receiving the control signal sets current to control light characteristics for light being emitted by the light engine.

    摘要: A luminaire that includes a housing having a downlight geometry and containing a light engine including light emitting diodes (LEDs), in which the light engine is positioned to emit light through a light emission end of the housing. The housing contains driver electronics for controlling power received by the luminaire for powering the light engine. An access opening on a back surface of the housing exposes the driver electronics. A junction box supporting at least a portion of a wireless control module. The junction box having an electrical pathway opening is engaged to the back surface of the housing. The wireless control module is contained in the knockout of the junction box. Electrical communication between the wireless control module and the driver circuit is across a physical electrically conductive pathway that extends through the electrical pathway opening of the junction box.

    摘要: A lighting test method that includes connecting a housing including driver electronics and a junction box to a main power source. The main power source is connected to a main power connector in the junction box. The driver electronics includes a first terminal. The method further includes connecting a power testing module to the first terminal to the driver electronics to determine whether the main power source is correctly connected to the main power connector in the junction box. The method further includes replacing the power testing module with a second terminal of a light engine housing. Connecting the first and second terminals provides that the driver electronics are in electrical communication with a light engine within the light engine housing.
