Programmable module for a modular installation of signal transmitters and method of driving the installation

Abstract

Programmable module (1) for a modular installation (IN), comprising:—a support base (2) delimited by edges (20);—at least one signal transmitter (3);—at least one measurement sensor generating local-measurement data;—at least one controller (4) driving the transmission of the signals and receiving the local-measurement data;—at least two connectors (5) fixed on the edges of said base and exhibiting an electrical power supply interface, and a bidirectional communication interface connected to the controller and exhibiting a communication input and a communication output; where at least one of said connectors may be connected with a connector of a neighbouring module in the modular installation so as to allow a bidirectional communication between the controller of said module and the controller of said neighbouring module and a distributing of the electrical power supply between the modules. The present invention finds an application in the field of luminous installations.
