    Abstract: Intelligent powered device (PD) control system including a switch system, state detector (SD), intelligent control device (ICD), and a PD. The switch system includes one or more conventional electrical switches. Each switch includes an interface to receive selection of a switch system state change between conductive and non-conductive states. The switch system includes a conductor pair(s) indicative of switch system state based on the selection. The SD signals the detected state to the ICD. The switch system output is in electrical connection with the detector such that, in the conductive state a loopback is formed in the switch system and SD, and in the non-conductive state no loopback is formed. The ICD receive the message from the state detector and transmits a fixture control command based on the message. The PD receives the command from the ICD via the data communications network, and controls its state based on the command.

    Abstract: Techniques presented herein are directed to synchronizing the execution time of lighting operations within a networked lighting system. In one example, a network device that is connected to at least one networked light fixture accepts one or more timing reference messages representing a network time base. The network device generates one or more lighting control messages that identify at least one light control setting for the networked light fixture connected to the network device. Based on the one or more timing reference messages, the network device encodes a time for execution of the light control setting within the lighting control messages, thereby generating one or more time encoded lighting control messages. The network device sends the time encoded lighting control messages to the networked light fixture for execution of the light control settings at the time of execution specified in the time encoded lighting control message.

    Abstract: Techniques are presented herein to operate a light fixture as in an emergency mode in order to verify that the light emitted by the light fixture when operated in the emergency mode complies with emergency operating policies, as well as to detect failures. The light emitted by the light fixture in emergency mode may be measured and adjusted to optimize the runtime of the light fixture in the emergency mode. The light fixture is connected to a lighting control system via a control network which supplies electrical power to charge an onboard battery of a light fixture and to operate the light fixture. The light fixture may be caused to operate in the emergency lighting mode when a main electrical power supply is interrupted or when performances of the light fixture and of the onboard battery are tested.

    Abstract: A ceiling support structure includes a plurality of network- and power-enabled rails that replace conventional structures for supporting a grid ceiling having a structure for supporting tiles and/or paneling. Each network-enabled rail comprises a plurality of connectors configured to receive a device or interface. At least some of the connectors can comprise a plurality of Power over Ethernet (PoE) connectors that provide both network connectivity and power to the devices. At least some of the connectors can comprise a plurality of fiber-optic cable connectors that provide network connectivity to the devices via the fiber-optic cable. In the fiber-optic cable connector structure, power is provided directly by the ceiling support itself which is formed of a conductive material and referred to as a power distribution bar. Each rail terminates at a hub referred to as a fog junction box that serves the power and networking for the ceiling support.

    Abstract: Techniques presented herein are directed to the coordinated network-based control of the color capabilities of multi-color fixtures. A network device is connected to multi-color light fixtures each comprising a local processor and a plurality of color light emitters. The network device receives data inputs from one or more data sources and uses the data inputs to identify a color informational display for presentation across a plurality of the multi-color light fixtures. The network device generates messages encoding light control settings for each of the plurality of multi-color light fixtures enabling each multi-color light fixture to present a spatial or temporal segment of the color informational display and sends the messages to the plurality of light fixtures. Execution of instructions embedded in the messages by the local processors results in the creation of the color informational display across the plurality of multi-color light fixtures
