3 more elements
A lighting system comprising:
- a master device for transmitting a light emission control command;
- and
- a plurality of lighting modules, each having a surface light source, receiving the light emission control command transmitted from the master device via a communication line, and driving and controlling the surface light source in accordance with control data for its own, the control data being included in the received light emission control command, and
- further comprising:
- transmitting means provided in the master device to sequentially set addresses with specified timing and to transmit an address assignment command including a set address to the communication line;
- and
- switching means for setting one lighting module out of the plurality of lighting modules in synchronization with the specified timing, the one lighting module being put in a command receivable state in a predetermined order, wherein
- each of the plurality of lighting modules has acquisition means for receiving the address assignment command and acquiring the address included in the address assignment command when each of the lighting modules is set as the one lighting module by the switching means, and
- extraction means for extracting the control data for its own from the light emission control command in accordance with the address acquired by the acquisition means.
