Abstract
A lighting system has at least one light fixture and a control device. The at least one light fixture has light parameters. The control device is in communication with the at least one light fixture. The control device has a plurality of one-dimensional user setting, a predetermined sequence of light parameters as a function of time, and an adjustment to the predetermined sequence as a function of a selected one-dimensional user setting.
Claims20
A lighting system comprising:
- at least one light fixture having light parameters;
- and
- a control device configured to:
- adapt the light parameters according to a predetermined sequence of the light parameters as a function of time;
- and
- change the predetermined sequence of the light parameters from the predetermined sequence to a changed sequence as a function of a one-dimensional user setting received from a first source external to and upstream of the control device;
- wherein the one-dimensional user setting has a value that lies between a lower limit value and an upper limit value and determines how much the changed sequence deviates from the predetermined sequence;
- and
- wherein in response to the one-dimensional user setting, the control device does not directly change current values of the light parameters, but rather, according to preset specifications, the control device changes a sequence of the light parameters from the predetermined sequence to the changed sequence, which affects the sequence thereof in the future.

A method of controlling a lighting system comprising at least one light fixture having light parameters, the method comprising:
- using a predetermined sequence of light parameters stored on a control device to set the light parameters as a function of time;
- and
- changing the predetermined sequence of the light parameters from the predetermined sequence to a changed sequence as a function of a one-dimensional user setting received from a first source external to and upstream of the control device;
- wherein the one-dimensional user setting has a value that lies between a lower limit value and an upper limit value and determines how much the changed sequence deviates from the predetermined sequence;
- and
- wherein in response to the one-dimensional user setting, the control device does not directly change current values of the light parameters, but rather, according to preset specifications, the control device changes a sequence of the light parameters from the predetermined sequence to the changed sequence, which affects the sequence thereof in the future.
