Embodiment Construction

[0026] A load control system for controlling power delivered from an AC power source to an electrical load may include control devices such as a control target device and a control source device. The control target device may respond to a message (eg, a digital message) transmitted by the control source device. The control target device is operable to enter an association mode to associate with at least one control source device. The control source device is operable to transmit association information configured to associate the control source device with the control target device. For example, the control source device may transmit an association message to the control target device including association information, such as a unique identifier (for example, serial number) of the control source device to be stored on the control target device. The control target device may store the unique identifier of the control source device, and then recognize a control digital message...

Abstract

A load control system may include control-target devices, control-source devices, and a system controller. The control-target devices may enter an association mode to associate with control-source devices. The control-target device may receive an identifier from the control-source device and store the identifier in memory when the control-target device to associate the control-target device and the control-source device. The system controller may retrieve the association information from the control-target device after integration into the load control system. The system controller may receiveassociation information that is defined using other association procedures, such as an association procedure performed on a network device and uploaded to the system controller. The system controllermay maintain the association information defined using the different association procedures after the system controller is integrated into the load control system. The system controller may also maintain control configuration information configured prior to integration of the system controller.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 62 / 234,981, filed September 30, 2015. Background technique [0003] Load control environments such as, for example, residential or office buildings may be configured with various types of load control systems. Lighting control systems can be used to control lighting loads in user environments. Motorized window treatment control systems may be used to control the natural light provided to the occupant's environment. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems may be used to control the temperature in the user's environment. [0004] Each load control system may include various control devices including: input devices and load control devices. The load control device may receive digital messages from one or more input devices. These digital messages may include load control messages for controlling electrical loads. Load con...
