Book excerpt: The acceptance of digital technology for building lighting controls significantly depends on the use of a standardized digital lighting communication protocol. To overcome the limitations of the current digital lighting communication protocols, National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) has developed a new protocol, NEMA Digital Lighting Controls Open Protocol or NEMA 243. The research work described in this Master thesis is focused on the design and development of a simple commissioning tool that will facilitate the implementation of digital lighting controls in building lighting systems. The commissioning tool is designed with a simple graphical user interface environment and incorporates all the necessary control commands defined in the NEMA 243 standard. The commissioning tool has been successfully demonstrated in a laboratory test setup to implement various traditional lighting control strategies. It has also been showcased that the designed commissioning tool does not limit itself to the implementation of traditional control strategies but can be used to implement new control strategies as long as they confirm to the requirements of the NEMA 243 standard.

Download or read book Lighting Control written by Robert Simpson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2003-05-02 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Simpson's comprehensive volume covers all aspects of lighting control systems. It starts with two foundation chapters outlining the basics of electricity, light and electronics as they apply to lighting control. It then reviews all current artificial lightsources, and comments on their suitability for control. A section on lighting control components covers electronic and electromagnetic dimmers, ballasts and transformers. The next section reviews lighting control systems, including those for stage and entertainment, architectural applications, energy management and building control; and includes a chapter on control signals protocols. The final part is an extensive applications review, fully illustrated, covering everything from hotels and cruise ships to homes and churches; and taking in offices, factories, simulators, trains and planes on the way. Lighting Control: technology and applications brings together information not otherwise available from a single source. It is intended as a training resource within the lighting industry, both for those completely new to the subject, and for those coming to it from another technical field. It will also be useful for lighting designers, consulting engineers and electrical contractors as a reference book covering current and emerging lighting control techniques - with special emphasis on new light sources and new digital control standards. Information, case histories and illustrations for the book have been provided by many leading lighting companies and organizations in North America and Europe.

Download or read book Tangible Lighting Controls written by Amardeep Mohanlal Dugar and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'Tangible Lighting Controls' project poses the crucial question: what is the nature of interface designs sought by end-users for maximising interaction with lighting control systems? The manner in which this question is posed implies a fundamental assumption that improved usability and end-user experience are primary goals. Usability is concerned with easier understanding of control functions. End-user experience is concerned with explicating the quality of end-users' experience such as fun/pleasure of use. Usability engineering methods involving survey research, experimental mock-ups and prototyping have been used to enable end-users to evaluate and design lighting control interfaces. The essential difference is to include end-users' viewpoint about ease and pleasure of use along with a technical viewpoint about meeting standards. End-user responses obtained from these experiments challenge manufacturers' claims about the effectiveness of conventional lighting control interfaces, and reveal a different way of thinking about future interface designs. Such a change in thinking could lead to lighting control interfaces that are easier to understand and more pleasurable to use.
