Abstract
A system may include a plurality of master lighting modules and a fixture controller. The fixture control may include a power converter circuit that is configured to generate a bus voltage on a power bus. The plurality of master lighting modules may be serially-coupled on the power bus. The fixture controller may include a control circuit that is configured to receive an indication of a magnitude of an end bus voltage at an end master lighting module. The end master lighting module may be the master lighting module that is located furthest from the fixture controller along the power bus. The control circuit may be configured to generate a target bus voltage control signal based on the magnitude of the end bus voltage. The power converter circuit may be configured to control a magnitude of the bus voltage based on the target bus voltage control signal.
