Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[PROBLEMS] To provide a method for lighting a plurality of high-pressure discharge lamps by which the restartable time immediately after unlighting and the rising time of luminous flux can be shortened. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A regular lamp and a starting lamp having the rising time of luminous flux shorter than that of the regular lamp are lighted in combination. The lighting method comprises a step (step S2) for setting a control mode controlling the lighting conditions of both lamps based on the time elapsed after previous unlighting of the regular lamp, and a step (step S3) for designating the lighting of the starting lamp and the regular lamp according to the control mode thus determined. Each control mode includes such controls as starting the lighting of both lamps simultaneously, unlighting the starting lamp when regular lighting state of it is brought about, and starting the lighting of the starting lamp at first when a significant time has not yet elapsed after previous unlighting and then starting the regular lamp.
