Patent ID: 11558948

Abstract:
A Smart ANSI Microcontroller is provided to retrofit preexisting light fixtures. The preexisting light fixtures are configured with 5 pin or 7 pin ANSI receptacles. The Smart ANSI Microcontroller is configured to accept a variety of control signals and to control the power output of the driver of the preexisting driver of the luminaire in order to control the light output of the luminaire. The Smart ANSI Microcontroller is configured with a 5 pin or 7 pin ANSI male connector that is configured for mating engagement with the 5 pin or 7 pin female ANSI connector found in typical prior art luminaires, such as street lamps. The Smart ANSI Microcontroller allows for contemporary accessory light controllers to be utilized with the preexisting luminaires. The contemporary light controllers can be configured to connect to the Smart ANSI Microcontroller via wireless and/or wired connection.
