## Abstract

A DMX based wireless, light emitting device and system including wireless modules that are battery powered and wirelessly receive and transmit DMX to other modules or a controller device. The modules can optionally be hard wired to both a DMX signal and external power supply. An integrated processor can independently control a pre-selected lighting effects, channels, addresses, programs and other light effect features.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A portable DMX compliant lighting module integrated into a single case and comprising:
a rechargeable battery, a battery power indicator and a battery charger;
a central processing unit (CPU) including a memory module;
at least one light cluster;
a wireless DMX compliant transceiver with auto jumping channel frequencies that minimize interference;
said wireless DMX compliant transceiver selectable to any of a predetermined set of channels;
a display and controls to control a function setting;
said function setting is selected from any of: a channel selection, a master-slave synchronization mode, an operation mode, a sound active mode, a light control command or a DMX compliant address;
where said light cluster is comprised of at least one LED light that produces color output and variable dimming;
said CPU controls said light output and said variable dimming of said light cluster;
said memory module stores a predetermined set of light control commands;
said CPU executes said light control commands and outputs a signal to said light cluster;
said wireless transceiver receives a wireless DMX compliant signal and immediately wirelessly rebroadcasts that wireless DMX compliant signal and executes a command in said DMX compliant signal to activate a light cluster.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A DMX lighting module as disclosed in claim 1 further characterized in that said CPU independently controls each light cluster.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

A DMX lighting module as disclosed in claim 1 further characterized in that said light cluster is comprised of at least: one red LED, one green LED, one blue LED, one amber, one ultraviolet and one white LED.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

A DMX lighting module as disclosed in claim 1 further characterized in that each light cluster is capable of variably outputting light in a predetermined range in a spectrum between ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A DMX lighting module as disclosed in claim 1 further characterized in that said battery has at least eighteen hours of battery life for use in most applications.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

A DMX lighting module as disclosed in claim 1 further characterized in that said wireless transceiver transmits a preselected wireless DMX signal to a second DMX lighting module in a master-slave relationship.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

A DMX lighting module as disclosed in claim 1 further characterized in that it includes a microphone and a microphone sensitivity selector;
when a sound active mode is selected then said microphone picks up ambient sounds and automatically synchronizes a light effect to the ambient sounds.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

A DMX lighting system comprising:
at least one lighting module as disclosed in claim 1;
a wireless DMX transmitter where said DMX transmitter transmits a wireless DMX signal to said lighting module.

### Claim 9

A portable lighting module integrated into a single case comprising:
a rechargeable battery, a central processing unit (CPU), a memory module, a control, a light cluster and a wireless DMX transceiver;
the wireless DMX transceiver is operatively configured with the CPU;
the control affects a function setting selected from any of: a channel selection, a master-slave synchronization mode, an operation mode, a sound active mode, a light control command or a DMX compliant address;
the light cluster is comprised of at least one LED light that produces light and variably dims;
the wireless DMX transceiver is selectable to transmit and receive a wireless DMX signal on any of a predetermined set of channels or auto-jumping channel frequencies;
the wireless transceiver receives a wireless DMX signal and the CPU executes a command contained in the DMX signal that activates a light cluster;
the wireless transceiver receives the wireless DMX signal and immediately wirelessly re-transmits the wireless DMX signal.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

A portable lighting module as in claim 9 further characterized in that a light control command is stored in the memory module and is selectively executed by the CPU to activate a light cluster.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

A portable lighting module as in claim 9 further characterized in that a power cord is operatively connectable to the rechargeable battery that selectively charges the rechargeable battery and provides independent power to the portable lighting module and provides a power connection socket to power another portable lighting module.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

A portable lighting module as in claim 9 further characterized in that while connected to an external power source the rechargeable battery can be recharging while the portable lighting module remains operable powered the external power source.

### Claim 13 (depends on 9)

A portable lighting module as in claim 9 further characterized in that the rechargeable battery has a capacity allowing eighteen hours of use in most applications.

### Claim 14 (depends on 9)

A portable lighting module as in claim 9 further characterized in that a pair of brackets are attached to the case and selectively articulate to:
a first position where the brackets perform as supporting legs and are adjustable to aim a direction of the light cluster; and
a second position where the brackets are affixable to a support structure and are adjustable to air the direction of the light cluster; and
a third position where the brackets nest against each other to provide a carrying handle.
