Abstract

DC60 (08/03/48) Encoding and communication system (SC) for controlling electrical excitation drivers (A), which contains at least one remote control device (D,E,S,U) capable of controlling the excitation driver (A) and the connected electrical load (L) via a single conductor (CP) connecting the output signals of the remote control devices (D,E,S,U) and the specific command input signal (P) of each excitation driver (A) directly. This ensures high flexibility of the controllable electrical and/or electronic functions while allowing different types of remote control devices (D,E,S,U) to be connected to a single conductor. It is a single conductor (CP) and a single actuator (A) encoder and communication system (SC) for controlling the electrical operator (A), which contains at least one remote control device (D, E, S, U) capable of controlling the operator (A) and the connected electrical load (L) via a single conductor (CP) that directly connects the output signals of the remote control devices (D, E, S, U) and the specific command input signals (P) of each operator (A). This ensures a high degree of flexibility in the controllable electrical and/or electronic functions while allowing different types of remote control devices (D, E, S, U) to be connected to a single, common conductor (CP) and to a single operator (A).

Claims (9)

1. For controlling the electrical operator (A), the encoding and communication system (SC) connected to the main line (AL) of the sine wave voltage supplied to at least one electrical operator (A) and at least one remote control device (D,E,S,U) for the operator (A), such encoding and communication system (SC) consists of at least one electrical load element (L) containing radiated power (W) and which is connected to at least one neutral conductor (N) of the said main line (AL), and at least one mechanism (ALR) for electrical connection to the operator (A). Each such remote control device (D,E,S,U) and each such electrical operator (A) is provided with specific command input (P) and specific command output and remains connected to the phase of the said main line (AL) and is connected to each other by an electrical control conductor (CP) which collects The electrical signals from the remote control devices (D,E,S,U) control the load element (L) through the operator (A) according to the electronic encoding for inputting interrupts and/or adjusting the power (W) transmitted through the load element (L), and for the translation and communication of the electrical signals collected from the remote control devices (D,E,S,U). A special characteristic of this electronic encoding is that it consists of inputs along the control conductor (CP), a half-wave train of a sine wave function, the variation over time of each half-wave being divided into three parts, where the first part corresponds to the first time period (T1), during which the control conductor (CP) conducts; the second part corresponds to the second time period (T2), during which there is no conduction; and the third part corresponds to the third time period (T3), which contains the fourth time period (T4), during which the control conductor (CP) conducts. 2. Encoding and communication system (SC) as specified in Requisition 1, which is characterized by such remote control devices (D,E,S,U) comprising at least one push button (E) and/or at least one adjustment and control button (D) and/or at least one interface (U) for connection to the digital communication bus (BU) and/or at least one receiver (S). Such remote control devices (D,E,S,U) are installed in identical installations. 3. Encoding and communication system (SC) as defined in Claim 2, which is characterized by the receiver (S) being a brightness receiver (light receiver) or presence receiver. 4. The encoding and communication system (SC), as described in Reputation 2, is characterized by the said adjustment and control button (D) being capable of axial and rotary movement, during which the button (D) is pressed in the axial direction, an electrical control conductor (CP) is fed. For the entire press time, a periodic voltage signal is obtained from the mains sine wave voltage signal (AL), the variation of which in each half-wave over time is divided into three parts corresponding to three time periods (T1, T2, T3). During the first time period (T1), the signal is fed along the electrical control conductor (CP); during the second time period (T2), the signal is not fed along the electrical control conductor (CP); and during the third time period (T3), comprising the fourth time period (T4) between which there is no electrical control conduction (CP), the signal is fed in proportion to the angular position of the button (D) around its axis of rotation. 5. The encoding and communication system (SC), as specified in Claim 1, is characterized by the power (W) transmitted through the load element (L) being proportional to the ratio of the fourth period (T4) to the third period (T3). 6. The encoding and communication system (SC) as described in Requisition 1 is characterized by the feeding of a whole sine function wave train, a half-wave, or a portion thereof continuing for less than a predetermined time (T5) to the electrical control conductor (CP), causing the load element (L) to switch off if properly switched on, and causing the load element to switch on if properly switched off. Such electronic encoding continues by the feeding of a whole wave train or a half-wave continuing for more than the predetermined time (T5), which triggers a cycle of modulation of the power (W) fed to the load (L), such power (W) is proportional to the time the wave train is maintained to reach its maximum and remains bounded at that portion until the next wave train feeding, or conversely, the modulation direction is reversed by the wave train's sustain. 7. The encoding and communication system (SC), as described in Remarks 1, is characterized by the electronic encoding of which a conductive input for electrical control (CP) voltage signal is fed along the output of the first operator (A), thereby enabling the electrical power (W) of the first operator (A) to be fed to the load element (L) coupled to the second electrical operator (A2), thus enabling the automatic self-correction of the second operator (A2) to be positioned at a corresponding level of the transmitted electrical power (W), taking into account the relative power of the first operator (A) to that transmitted by each pair of operators (A). 8. The encoding and communication system (SC), as described in Requisition 1, is characterized by the burden element (L) consisting of a brightly emitting light which is switched on when power (W) is supplied internally and switched off when the transmission of power (W) is interrupted or when a predetermined time or predetermined brightness level is reached. 9. Encoding and communication system (SC) as defined in Reputation 1, which is characterized by the fact that such electrical operator (A) is provided with control devices, which shall consist of miniature controllers or state machines capable of generating such electronic encoding to translate signals to specific command input (P) and to translate such signals into specific commands to the burden elements (L) controlled by them. Such electrical operator (A) is installed in the same installation as such remote control devices (D,E,S,U) (Reputation 9, page 4, figure 9).
