MAINS PARAMETER ANALYZING DEVICE FOR A LIGHTING CONTROL BUS, AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME

A mains parameter analyzing device (1) for a lighting control bus (5) is provided, comprising: a bus terminal (11), being connectable to the lighting control bus (5); a mains input terminal (12), being connectable to a mains supply; a mains output terminal (13), being connectable to a mains supply rail; a measurement unit (14), being configured to measure, at the mains output terminal (13), parameters of a mains power output to a number of bus-capable lighting drivers (3); a communication unit (15), being configured to receive, via the bus terminal (11), indicative parameters of a respective mains power input of the number of bus-capable lighting drivers (3); and a processing unit (16), being configured to associate the respective bus-capable lighting driver (3) with a respective mains power input using a machine learning algorithm, in accordance with the indicative parameters of the respective mains power inputs and the parameters of the mains power output. This avoids furnishing every bus-capable driver of a lighting system with a mains power monitoring feature.
