Abstract:
1. A lighting system comprising: a controller coupled to a power source at a first connection and at least one light string at a second connection, said second connection including at least three connection leads, said second connection being polarized such that said light string is capable of only one connection orientation at said second connection, said light string containing a plurality of lighting elements, each of said lighting elements containing a plurality of different colored lights, said controller having a switch with a plurality of switch positions including: a first switch position for providing electrical power at said second connection to said light string by applying a first voltage phase on a first connection lead, said first voltage phase biasing a first light among said plurality of different colored lights within said lighting elements; a second switch position for providing electrical power at said second connection to said light string by applying a second voltage phase on said first connection lead, said second voltage phase biasing a second light among said plurality of different colored lights within said lighting elements; and a third switch position for providing electrical power at said second connection to said light string in a third voltage phase on a second connection lead, said third voltage phase biasing a third light among said plurality of different colored lights within said lighting elements.
