Abstract:
A distributed lighting control system that minimizes or eliminates standby power usage in a low voltage lighting system where a digital power module is adapted to receive at least one control signal and to transmits an output control signal on one or more output ports to control various fixture control modules each having associated LED light fixtures, the digital power module functioning to shut off the transmission of electrical power to the fixture control modules to prevent standby power usage by the fixture control modules.

Claim (Index 10):
A lighting control system comprising:\n a digital power module (DPM) including:\n a control module; \n a power supply; \n a first power output connected to the power supply; \n at least one control input operable to receive an input control signal; and \n a digital interface; \n a first plurality of fixture control modules (FCMs) connected to the digital interface and the first power output, each of the first plurality of FCMs having an LED light fixture associated therewith and controlled by the respective FCM, the DPM being adapted to transmit the digital control signal to the first plurality of FCMs through the digital interface for individually controlling each FCM and associated LED light fixture; the DPM being adapted to transmit power to the first plurality of FCMs through the first power output; the DPM having a first active power mode wherein the DPM transmits power via the first power output and the DPM transmits the digital control signal via the digital interface; the DPM having a first idle power mode wherein the DPM does not transmit power via the first power output, and wherein the DPM is operable to monitor that at least one control input; the control module setting the DPM in the first active power mode when the digital control signal is configured to cause any one of the first plurality of FCMs to turn the associated LED light fixture on; and the control module setting the DPM in the first idle power mode when the digital control signal is configured to cause each one of the first plurality the FCMs to turn the associated LED light fixture off.
