  • Patent number: 8674625
    Abstract: A synchronous light adjustment method and the device for performing the same are proposed. Each of plurality of lamps is installed with a light sensor and a control unit. By actuating a single power switch, the control unit will control the illumination of a respective one of the LED lamps independently and automatically based on the environmental illumination detected by a light sensor. Further, by switching the power switch manually to match predetermined operations, the control units will adjust the illuminations and color temperatures of the LED lamps synchronously and gradually. The device is convenient in installation and usage.

  • Patent number: 7746008
    Abstract: A group control type fluorescent, LED and/or halide lighting control system comprises at least a control interface, which generates a main control signal based on user's operation. This control interface is connected to one or more controllable driver to drive corresponding light sources according to the main control signal. The controllable drivers are cascaded to one or more drivers in order. These drivers control the connected light sources to produce corresponding actions according to control signals generated by the controllable drivers. Through a cascading design collocated with several controllable dimmable drivers, unlimited installation and immediate usage after installation can be accomplished without the need of any preset action. Moreover, the advantages of simple operation and easy learning can also be achieved.

  • Patent number: 7235933
    Abstract: A reversible dimmer device of gas discharge lamp and a control method for light adjusting thereof are proposed, in which a power switch on the wall or on an appliance is used to control actions of at least of a gas discharge lamp. When the power switch is turned on, a power signal is provided to drive the gas discharge lamp to produce a stable light source. The power switch is then fast pressed to make sure the times and timing of off-on switching so that a logic control circuit can output a logic control command. A frequency modulation control circuit is then used to adjust a power parameter according to the logic control command so that a variable frequency resonance drive circuit can vary the drive frequency of the power signal based on the power parameter. The gas discharge lamp can thus produce different luminance or different luminous effects.
