The invention proposes a lighting device, in particular an emergency lighting device. The lighting device includes a first housing (), a lighting means (), for example an LED arranged at the first housing () and an electronic circuitry accommodated in the first housing () for operating the lighting means (). A second housing () of the lighting device accommodates an energy storage means () such as a rechargeable battery, wherein the first housing () and the second housing () are arranged spaced apart. An interconnecting means () mechanically connects the first housing () and the second housing () in an elastic manner and also connects electrically the electronic circuitry and the energy storage means (). The interconnecting means () of the lighting device of a preferred embodiment comprises a cable which is overmoulded to provide compressive strength in an axial direction of the cable.

Lighting device

The invention relates to an operating device () for at least one light-emitting diode () having an input () for coupling to a DC bus () in order to receive a DC supply voltage. The operating device () has a configurable emergency light function. The operating device () is designed to produce, in the emergency light case, the LED currently for the at least one light-emitting diode () in dependence on how the emergency light function is configured.

Devices, systems and methods for emergency light operation

The invention relates to an illumination system (A) having at least one operating device () for operating lighting means, having a control device () which is connected by means of an analogue or digital light control bus to the operating device and is designed for transmission of analogue or digital control commands via the light control bus, wherein the control device () is designed to control the operating devices () in terms of brightness and/or color by means of control commands, wherein furthermore the control device is connected to a IPv6 bus system, the control device () is designed to receive IPv6 bus commands via the IPv6 bus system and is designed to transmit a colour command or a brightness command as control command, according to the received IPv6 bus commands, to at least one operating device, and the operating device is designed to adapt the control of the lighting means according to the received colour command or brightness command.

Method for controlling an operating device for lighting means

The invention relates to a lighting arrangement with an operating device () and with an LED light source () which is controlled by said operating device and which is formed by at least two LEDs (), which emit light of different colors and together emit a white total light. The operating device () drives some of the LEDs () forming the LED light source () which are intended to emit monochromatic (non-white) light in such a way that said LEDs emit light signals representing certain operating parameters.
