Abstract
The subject disclosure relates to solutions for testing lighting systems and in particular, for verifying lighting system operability in the event of a power failure. A process of the disclosed technology can include steps for receiving an interrupt command, toggling an interrupt relay in response to the interrupt command, and measuring one or more lighting characteristics of the lighting array to determine if the second power supply can power the lighting array. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
Claims1
A system, comprising:
- an interrupt relay coupled between a first power supply and a lighting array;
- a power monitoring module coupled to the lighting array;
- a microcontroller coupled to the power monitoring module, the interrupt relay, and a wireless transceiver, wherein the microcontroller is configured to perform operations for:
- receiving an interrupt command;
- toggling the interrupt relay in response to the interrupt command, wherein toggling the interrupt relay terminates power delivery from the first power supply to the lighting array;
- and
- measuring one or more lighting characteristics of the lighting array to determine if the second power supply can power the lighting array.
