Abstract:
The present invention is in the field of Power over Ethernet (PoE) systems comprising a power supply module and an operation module with an emergency operation mode for operating lighting means, wherein the power supply module supplies a supply voltage via a data cable to the operation module. Especially, the present invention relates to power supply modules, preferably Power Sourcing Equipments (PSE) according to the PoE standard; operation modules with an emergency operation mode, preferably Powered devices (PD) according to the PoE standard; PoE systems, comprising such power supply modules and operation modules; and a detection method for detecting whether an operation module is arranged for operating lighting means in an emergency operation mode as well as an emergency operation mode triggering method for triggering an operation module to operate lighting means in an emergency operation mode.

Claim (Index 14):
A detection method for detecting, in a power over Ethernet (PoE) system, whether an operation module, which may be supplied with a supply voltage via a data cable from a power supply module, during an operation phase, is arranged for operating lighting means in an emergency operation mode, comprising the following steps:\n supplying from a power supply module, during a detection phase, at least a first voltage via a data cable to an operation module, detecting with the power supply module, during the detection phase, whether the operation module is arranged for being supplied with a supply voltage via the data cable during the operation phase, supplying from the power supply module, during a classification phase, a second voltage via the data cable to the operation module, detecting with the power supply module during the classification phase, whether the operation module is arranged for operating the lighting means in an emergency operation mode, and supplying from the power supply means during an operation phase, the operation module with the supply voltage via the data cable, wherein the power supply module only performs the classification phase and the operation phase, if the power supply module detects during the detection phase that the power supply module is arranged for being supplied via the data cable with the supply voltage, and the second voltage is higher than the first voltage, but lower than the supply voltage.
