Configuring a network connected lighting system

Abstract

A lighting system device for a pre-configured lighting system (111), wherein the lighting system device is coupled directly with at least one further lighting system device in the pre-configured lighting system (111) based on configuration data associated with the lighting system device and the at least one further lighting system device, the lighting system device further configured to: store theconfiguration data associated with the lighting system device and the at least one further lighting system device such that it is not deleted on performing a reset; receive a reset input; cascade thereset input to any coupled lighting system devices within the pre-configured lighting system package; reset the lighting system device; and determine and register the lighting system device on a central control unit (101), such that the central control unit (101) is configured to access the configuration data and restore a pre-configured lighting system functionality.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to configuring a lighting system including one or more lighting devices, such as one or more light fixtures for illuminating a room or other environment, through a communication system. Background technique [0002] Most environments are provided with one or more lighting devices in the form of one or more light fixtures used to illuminate the environment so that occupants can find their way and / or see within the environment. Objects, usually generally flood the environment with light or at least a portion of it. Other types of lighting devices include, for example, luminaires used to provide lighting effects, eg, as part of a light show or stage lighting. [0003] Traditionally, lights have been controlled by means of a user manually pressing a light switch or turning a dimmer switch. Now, the light can also be controlled remotely via another device such as a user terminal and even a mobile user terminal such as a smar...

Also, in order to bind the wall switch to the light unit, the bridge must be configured

While this example is simple where the user has a large number of packages to configure (such as a complete home conversion from pre-configured to bridge network setup), in the case of many actuators and controllers to configure configuration can become very complex and the probability of errors resulting in a connected system that does not properly control all of the lamp units in the lamp unit is high
