METHOD, SYSTEM AND DEVICE FOR SIGNALING, GUIDING AND ALERTING
First Claim
1. A method for controlling guiding, signal or alert lights, particularly the signal lights of an emergency escape route in a fire situation, in which method there are controlled sequentially arranged light sources, such as LED light sources, characterized in that in the method, in the first step there are activated sequentially arranged light sources (40), which are most advantageously arranged in a light source string (4) or at least as part of a light source string, on the basis of a signal received from a fire detector (3), to a first mode, on which first mode the sequentially arranged light sources are used for indicating the direction of an escape route, and/or to a second mode, in which the light sources (40) are switched to emit continuous light.

Abstract
A method for controlling guiding, signal or alert lights, particularly signal lights for an emergency escape route in a fire situation, in which method there are controlled sequentially arranged light sources, such as LED light sources. In the method, in the first step the sequentially arranged light sources (40), which are most advantageously arranged as a light source string (4) or at least as part thereof, are activated, on the basis of a signal received from a fire detector (3), to be switched to a first mode, in which first mode the sequentially arranged light sources are used for indicating the direction of an escape route, and/or to a second mode, where the light sources (40) are switched to emit continuous light. The invention also relates to a system and a device.

- 1. A method for controlling guiding, signal or alert lights, particularly the signal lights of an emergency escape route in a fire situation, in which method there are controlled sequentially arranged light sources, such as LED light sources, characterized in that in the method, in the first step there are activated sequentially arranged light sources (40), which are most advantageously arranged in a light source string (4) or at least as part of a light source string, on the basis of a signal received from a fire detector (3), to a first mode, on which first mode the sequentially arranged light sources are used for indicating the direction of an escape route, and/or to a second mode, in which the light sources (40) are switched to emit continuous light.
- 11. A signaling, guiding or alert light system, particularly a signal light system for an emergency escape route, comprising sequentially arranged light sources, such as LED light sources, and fire detectors (3), characterized in that the light sources (40), which are most advantageously arranged as a light source string (4) or at least as part of a light source string, are arranged to be switched to a first mode, i.e. a dynamic mode, where they are used for indicating the direction of the escape route, and/or to a second mode, where the light sources (40) are switched to emit continuous light, on the basis of a fire detection signal received from a fire detector (3).

21. A device for a signaling, guiding or alert light system, particularly in a signal light system for an emergency escape route, said device comprising sequentially arranged light sources, such as LED light sources, characterized in that the light sources (40) are arranged as a light source string (4) or at least as part of a light source string, and that the device comprises at least one fire detector (3), including both a smoke detector and a heat detector, which are connected directly or through a control system (10) to a light source string or part thereof.

22. A device for a signaling, guiding or alert light system, particularly in a signal light system for an emergency escape route, said device comprising sequentially arranged light sources, such as LED light sources, characterized in that the light sources (40) are arranged as a light source string (4) or at least as part of a light source string, and that the device comprises at least one fire detector (3), including both a smoke detector and a heat detector, which are connected directly or through a control system (10) to a light source string or part thereof, so that the light source string (4) or part thereof includes one fire detector that is effective thereupon.
