Abstract

Industrial lighting control system and methods provide for real-time overcurrent protection and phase-cut dimming capabilities. Embodiments include a system comprising a power input, a computing device, switches, and a control interface. The computing device processes control signals to generate phase-cut dimming signals, supports both leading edge and trailing edge dimming modes, and monitors current draw in real time to prevent overcurrent conditions. A user interface allows for setting and adjusting a low dim threshold to ensure stable performance at minimal brightness levels. The system is compatible with both current sink and current source controllers, automatically adjusting its operation accordingly. This improvement provides efficient, precise dimming control, enhancing the safety, reliability, and versatility of industrial and commercial lighting applications.
