Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Object of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a lighting control system, and relates to color control and dimming of lighting equipment equipped with color filters used for lighting production in theaters, etc. Regarding things that perform control.

(Prior art) In conventional lighting production for theaters, etc., the color control of the color scene of the lighting and the dimming control of the dimming scene are switched independently of each other. When replacing the filter, the filter removal operation is delayed from the insertion operation so that both color filters are not installed when the lamp is turned on, and the color scene data and dimming scene data are the same. A method is known in which the information is stored in memory and controlled.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the conventional method described above, in which the color control of the color scene and the dimming control of the dimming scene are switched independently of each other, the color control operation of the color scene and the dimming control of the dimming scene are The control operations are performed separately, and the operator must memorize the programs for color control and dimming control, and if the color filter switching operation shown in FIG. 5 deviates at time T when the scene changes, However, there is a problem in that the color filter is not applied at all, which may impair the lighting effects, and the operator's operability is poor.

In addition, when replacing color filters, if the removal operation of the filter to be removed is delayed than the insertion operation, both color filters will not come off, but as shown in FIG. 6, the color filter replacement time T, There was also the problem that the lighting effect was delayed when the scene changed.

Furthermore, in a method in which color scene data and dimming scene data are stored in the same memory, as shown in FIG. Since the program is created and controlled, there is a problem in that the amount of program data processing increases and the time and effort required to create the program.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it stores color filter status data as a color scene and dimmer status data as a dimming scene, respectively, and further separately stores the correspondence between the color scene and the dimming scene. The relationship is memorized to facilitate program data processing, and when the dimming signal is output, it is converted to a color scene corresponding to the dimming scene.The color scene switching instruction to replace the color filter is displayed when the dimming scene is changed. The present invention provides a lighting control device with improved operability.

(Means for Solving the Problems) A lighting control system of the present invention includes a lighting fixture, a plurality of color filters that change the color light of the lighting fixture, a color filter exchange device that replaces the plurality of color filters, and a color filter replacement device that replaces the plurality of color filters. a dimmer for dimming and lighting a lighting fixture; and a dimmer for storing the color filter status data as a color scene and outputting a conversion signal for converting it into a filter corresponding to the stored color scene to the color filter replacement device. a color filter replacement device control device, which stores state data of the dimmer as a dimming scene and outputs a dimming signal corresponding to the stored dimming scene to the dimmer; The present invention is characterized by comprising a dimmer control device that stores the correspondence relationship with the scene and displays that the dimming scene will be converted to a color scene corresponding to the dimming scene when outputting the dimming signal.

(Function) The lighting control system of the present invention stores color filter status data as a color scene in the memory of the color filter replacement device control device, and stores dimmer status data as a dimming scene in the memory of the dimmer control device. At the same time, it stores the correspondence between the color scene and the dimming scene, outputs a dimming signal corresponding to the stored dimming scene to the dimmer, and also stores the correspondence between the color scene and the dimming scene. When the dimmer control device outputs the memorized dimming signal to the dimmer when changing the scene, the correspondence between the memorized color scene and the dimming scene will be displayed. You can operate the color filter exchange device control device according to the display and convert it to a color scene that corresponds to the dimming scene, without compromising the lighting effect (color light control and dimming control are easy with less data processing) This allows for a good lighting effect.
