Problems solved by technology

Such difficulties can cause the individual commissioning the system to spend a considerable amount of time searching for specific devices to configure, and, once those devices are found, performing lengthy configuration methods to enable the device to control the electrical loads in the location
Therefore, the current commissioning process for load control systems can be time-consuming and inconvenient

Embodiment Construction

[0041] Figure 1A A representative load control environment 100 (eg, a load control area) including a load control system is depicted. A load control system may be commissioned to enable control of electrical devices in the load control system. Commissioning of a load control system may include associating control devices, which may include control source devices and / or control target devices. Such as Figure 1A As shown in , rooms 102, 104, and 106 in a building may be installed with one or more control target devices, eg, load control devices for controlling electrical loads within a room or building. Each load control device may be capable of directly controlling the amount of power provided to the electrical load and may be controlled by a control source device. Example control target devices may include lighting fixtures 108a, 108b, 108c, 108d in room 102; lighting fixtures 138a, 138b, 138c, 138d in room 104; Each lighting fixture may include lighting loads (e.g., LED...

Abstract

A load control system may include control devices for controlling power provided to an electrical load. The control devices may include a control-source device and a control-target device. The control-target device may control the power provided to the electrical load based on digital messages received from the control-source device. The control devices may include a load control discovery devicecapable of sending discovery messages configured to discover control devices within a location. The discovered control devices may be organized by signal strength and may be provided to a network device to enable association of the discovered control devices within a location. The discovery messages may be transmitted within an established discovery range. The discovery range may be adjusted to discover different control devices. Different control devices may be identified as the load control discovery device for discovering different control devices.
