Abstract:
A lamp system, and a method of operating the lamp system, are provided. The lamp system includes a gas discharge lamp, an electronic ballast and a control unit. A performance influencing control variable of the lamp system is used. The method allows operation with a high emission performance independent of the design thereof and of any potential changes caused by lamp aging and without any knowledge of the optimal operating temperature. According to the invention a light intensity control is provided, in which an actual value of a light intensity emitted by the gas discharge lamp is measured using a light sensor and the emitted light intensity is used as an actuating variable.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of  claim 3  wherein the extremum control is realized as a two-point control in which, during a start phase, the actuating variable is set to at least two initial values, one of which causes a temperature increase, and the other of which causes a temperature reduction of the gas discharge lamp, wherein a maximum of the light intensity is reached and overstepped both as a result of the temperature increase and as a result of the temperature reduction, and in that a value between the one and the other initial value is set as the target value of the actuating variable.
