Flashing And Dimming Fluorescent Lamps For A Gaming Device
US Patent:
6043615, Mar 28, 2000
Filed:
Sep 18, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/156469
Inventors:
Mark G. Forbes - Corvallis OR
Assignee:
Acres Gaming Incorporated - Las Vegas NV
International Classification:
G05F 100
US Classification:
315291
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for signaling promotional operation of a gaming device using existing fluorescent illumination lamps. An illumination lamp on a gaming device is operated continuously during normal operation, then flashed to signal promotional operation. Alternatively, an illumination lamp can be dimmed during normal operation, then operated at full brightness during promotional operation. To achieve flashing and dimming operation, a conventional starter is removed from a socket in a fluorescent lamp fixture and replaced with a controllable starter that fits into the same socket. The starter has a pair of wire leads for receiving a control signal for flashing or dimming the lamp. The controllable starter includes a starter circuit having a switch connected between two power terminals of the starter. When the switch closes responsive to the control signal, it shorts circuits the lamp, thereby extinguishing the arc and allowing preheat current to flow in the heating filaments of the lamp.
