Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Methods and apparatus related to controlling an apparatus such as a lighting fixture utilizing a communication protocol transmitted over the power line that feeds the lighting fixture. For example, in some embodiments data is transmitted over a three-phase power system via switching of a transformer electrically coupled to the three-phase power system. Optionally, a single transformer may be utilized to transmit data to at least on apparatus coupled to a first phase line of a three-phase power system and to at least one apparatus coupled to a second phase line of the three-phase power system.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of transmitting a data packet to a lighting fixture network over a three-phase power system via manipulation of a single transformer coupled to the three-phase power system, comprising: identifying a lighting fixture data packet, said lighting fixture data packet based on data indicative of appropriate lighting fixture settings for one or more lighting fixtures of a lighting fixture network; switching a single transformer electrically coupled to a…
