Abstract:
The present specification discloses a method and device for automatically calibrating a reference light level for an automated dimmer for electric lights, such as fluorescent lamps. An automatic dimmer, including an automatic calibration device, can be installed in series between an instant-start electronic ballast and a fluorescent lamp. An exemplary method for calibrating a lamp includes blocking or removing all ambient light, turning on the electric light, measuring the light output, and turning off the electric light.
