Abstract: Two-wire dimmer operation includes controlling conduction of power to a lighting load. In one aspect, based on a conduction angle adjustment, power supply voltage is monitored and a maximum conduction angle is established based thereon. In another aspect, a dimming level signal is received and a dimming level for a dimmer is set based on the received dimming level. The dimming level signal indicates a desired dimming level for a dimmer, and a maximum value for the dimming level signal is based on a dimmer power supply voltage. In yet another aspect, based on detecting an adjustment to increase a conduction angle of a dimmer, the conduction end angle is increased and the conduction start angle is also increased. This results in a net increase in the conduction angle for controlling operation of the dimmer.

In aspects of the present disclosure, an arc fault electrical switch apparatus includes a conductive path, a switch configured to interrupt electrical current in the conductive path, a current sensor in electrical communication with the conductive path and configured to measure the electrical current to provide current measurements, and a controller. The controller is configured to execute instructions to sample the current measurements to provide current samples, computing an estimated signal-to-noise ratio of the electrical current based on at least a portion of the current samples, determine whether the signal-to-noise ratio is less than a predetermined threshold, and activate the switch to interrupt the electrical current in the conductive path, if the signal-to-noise ratio is less than the predetermined threshold.

Abstract: Two-wire dimmer operation includes applying first and second control pulses to a switching circuit controlled between ON and OFF states, the first control pulse beginning at a first starting time and extending for a first duration of time that ends at a first ending time, and the second control pulse beginning at a second starting time, after the first ending time, and extending for a second duration of time that ends at a second ending time, detecting levels of current provided to a lighting load during the first duration of time and during the second duration of time, comparing current levels determined based on applying the first and second control pulses, based on the comparing, ascertaining a load type of the lighting load, and selecting, based on the ascertained load type, parameters that control dimming operation of the dimmer.

Abstract: A digital observation system and method for processing and transmitting video data between a video camera, or video cameras, and a base unit. The video data is transmitted, for example, by a communication protocol that is compliant with Ethernet physical drivers for transmitting and receiving data at around 100 Mbps. Video is captured at a sensor in the video camera, digitally processed and transmitted, thus overcoming limitations associated with analog processing and allowing unique features to be added. Images and other data may be transmitted efficiently in their native format, with reduced overhead, and in a non-compressed format due to the data transmission rate at or below 100 Mbps.
