20080291047 | System Having Key Fob Operable to Remotely Control a Garage Door Via Remote Keyless Entry Receiver and Garage Door Opener Transmitter Interconnected by Vehicle Bus - A garage door opener (GDO) system and method include a remote keyless entry (RKE) receiver and a GDO system interconnected by a vehicle bus. Upon receiving a RKE GDO request signal from a key fob, the RKE receiver forwards a command signal over the vehicle bus to the GDO transmitter. Upon receiving the command signal from the RKE receiver, the GDO transmitter transmits a garage door signal to a GDO receiver of a garage to control a garage door. | 11-27-2008 |
20110169604 | UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER AND APPLIANCE CONTROL SYSTEM - Universal garage door opener and appliance control system operable to facilitate garage door opener and appliance control with a fob or other wireless device operable to wirelessly communicate corresponding instructions to a vehicle other device for subsequent relay to the garage door opener or controlled appliance. | 07-14-2011 |
20110172885 | UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER AND APPLIANCE CONTROL SYSTEM - A control module may be configured to support wireless transmission and/or receipt of signals used to direct universal garage door openers and other appliance control systems. The control module may be operable to prevent certain garage door opener and/or application control requests in the event certain security measures are not met. The control module may be integrated into a smart junction box, body control module, and/or other module in the event the control module is adapted for use within a vehicle. | 07-14-2011 |
20110193680 | VEHICLE APPLIANCE CONTROL SYSTEM - A vehicle system includes a body control module for controlling at least one body control system. The body control module has a microcontroller. A garage door opener module is adapted to be mounted within a vehicle. The garage door module provides an actuating signal for a garage door opener. A keypad is adapted to be mounted on the vehicle and accessible from outside of the vehicle. The keypad provides input to the microcontroller for controlling the garage door opener module. | 08-11-2011 |

20080212317 | GARAGE LIGHT LUMINAIRE WITH CIRCULAR COMPACT FLUORESCENT EMERGENCY LIGHTING OPTICS - The present invention relates to a round garage light assembly having a housing with a lamp mounting surface wherein a main HID lamp and an auxiliary circular high output fluorescent lamp are mounted. The auxiliary lamp is mounted centrally within the assembly and above the photometric center of the high intensity discharge lamp so that the light pattern emitted from the auxiliary lamp is symmetrical and the auxiliary lamp does not shadow the light emitted from the HID lamp. | 09-04-2008 |
20100134027 | MULTI-LAMP HID LUMINAIRE WITH CYCLING SWITCH - A multi-lamp HID luminaire is provided with a HID ballast. An ignitor that produces a high voltage ignition pulse is coupled to the HID ballast and is also coupled to a plurality of HID lamp sockets that receive HID lamps. A cycling switch is also electrically coupled to the HID ballast and causes a periodic power interruption to the plurality of HID lamp sockets. | 06-03-2010 |
20110187270 | LUMINAIRE HAVING A HID LIGHT SOURCE AND A LED LIGHT SOURCE - A luminaire includes a primary HID light source housing having at least one selectively powerable HID lamp and an LED arm assembly having a secondary LED light source. In some embodiments the LED arm assembly may extend between a support structure and the HID light source housing and in other embodiments the LED arm assembly may be a stand alone assembly and extend from a support structure remote from the HID light source housing. The HID lamp may be powered during user selected peak hours and the LED light source may be powered during user selected non-peak hours. | 08-04-2011 |
20110187273 | LIGHTING CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A PLURALITY OF LUMINAIRES - A lighting control system includes a plurality of luminaires each having a selectively powerable first light source and a selectively powerable second light source. The luminaires are powerable and controllable by a common AC power source. A signal receiving controller of each of the luminaires is electrically connected to the first light source and the second light source and selectively causes power to be routed to either the first light source or the second light source dependent on a control signal sent via the AC power source. | 08-04-2011 |
20110187278 | LIGHTING CONTROL METHOD - A lighting control method includes steps for electrically powering a plurality of luminaires each having a selectively powerable first light source and a selectively powerable second light source. The luminaires are powerable and controllable by a common AC power source. A control pulse signal may sent via the AC power source to cause each of the luminaires to selectively route power to either the first light source or the second light source. | 08-04-2011 |
