Abstract:
A method of operating a group of lamps in a multi-lamp luminaire, each lamp being operable to emit respective illumination embedded with a predetermined coded light message, and each comprising a respective local controller; wherein the method comprises: communicating between the local controllers of the lamps within the multi-lamp luminaire in order to coordinate that unsynchronized instances of said coded light message are not transmitted from different ones of the lamps in the multi-lamp luminaire.

Claim (Index 3):
The first lamp of  claim 2 , wherein the local controller is configured to perform said coordination by a); and wherein the first lamp further comprises timing circuitry configured to use a cyclical variation in a voltage and/or current of the power supplied by the power supply circuit in order to derive a clock signal common to the first lamp and the one or more other lamps, wherein the coded light transmitter is configured to synchronize the start of the respective instance of the coded light message to said clock signal, thereby synchronizing the start of the respective message to the start of the messages transmitted by the one or more other lamps.
