Light Sources
All lamps have at least one built-in light sourceA light source is typically built into a physical lamp.. Lamps above a certain size
typically have several built-in light sources. Each light sourceA light source is typically built into a physical lamp. has a driver,
which controls the light source.
For example, a lamp with 1 light sourceA light source is typically built into a physical lamp. has 1 built-in driver
For example, a lamp with 4 light sources has 4 built-in drivers

Example
On a lattice mast, 4 lamps are installed, and each lamp has 4 built-in light sources.
This means that each lamp actually has 4 light sources; it could be called
a 4-in-1 lamp
The 4 lamps are connected to the same DALIDALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) is a standardized digital protocol for lighting control. network
The 4 lamps use 16 addresses on the DALIDALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) is a standardized digital protocol for lighting control. network:
