Abstract: A load control system may include control devices capable of being associated with each other at one or more locations for performing load control. Control devices may include control-source devices and/or control-target devices. A location beacon may be discovered and a unique identifier in the location beacon may be associated with a unique identifier of one or more control devices. Upon subsequent discovery of the location beacon, the associated load control devices may be controlled. The beacons may be communicated via radio frequency signals, visible light communication, and/or audio signals. The visible light communication may be used to communicate other types of information to devices in the load control system. The visible light communication may be used to identify link addresses for communicating with load control devices, load control instructions, load control configuration instructions, network communication information, and/or the like. The information in the beacons may be used to commission and/or control the load control system.
Abstract translation: 负载控制系统可以包括能够在一个或多个位置处相互关联以进行负载控制的控制装置。 控制设备可以包括控制源设备和/或控制目标设备。 可以发现位置信标,并且位置信标中的唯一标识符可以与一个或多个控制设备的唯一标识符相关联。 随后发现位置信标,可以控制相关的负载控制装置。 信标可以通过射频信号,可见光通信和/或音频信号来传送。 可见光通信可以用于将其他类型的信息传送到负载控制系统中的设备。 可见光通信可以用于识别用于与负载控制设备通信的连接地址,负载控制指令,负载控制配置指令,网络通信信息等。 信标中的信息可用于调试和/或控制负载控制系统。

Abstract: A load control system may include devices for performing communications for controlling an amount of power provided to an electrical load. The devices may include load control devices that may communicate by transmitting digital messages. A user device having an adjustable wireless communication range may be used for discovering devices, configuring devices, and/or diagnosing devices in the load control system. The user device may detect whether devices are within an established wireless communication range of one another for performing communications. The user device may detect digital messages transmitted from a device and/or digital messages received at a device to determine whether the digital messages are correctly communicated in the load control system. The user device may provide an indication to a user indicating whether a digital message is correctly transmitted or received by a device in the load control system.
Abstract translation: 负载控制系统可以包括用于执行用于控制提供给电负载的功率量的通信的装置。 这些设备可以包括可以通过发送数字消息进行通信的负载控制设备。 具有可调节无线通信范围的用户设备可用于发现设备,配置设备和/或诊断负载控制系统中的设备。 用户设备可以检测设备是否在彼此的已建立的无线通信范围内,以进行通信。 用户设备可以检测从设备发送的数字消息和/或在设备处接收的数字消息,以确定数字消息是否在负载控制系统中正确通信。 用户设备可以向用户提供指示数字消息是否由负载控制系统中的设备正确地发送或接收的指示。

Abstract: A wireless load control system for controlling one or more electrical loads comprises a wireless control device (e.g., a gateway device) able to obtain a present time from a server via a network (e.g., the Internet), control the electrical loads according to a timeclock schedule, and disable the timeclock schedule if the present time is not able to be obtained from the server via the network. The wireless control device may also be able to obtain the present time from a digital message received from an external device (e.g., a smart phone or a tablet device) via the network. The wireless control device may be configured to receive a control signal indicating a power outage (e.g., from a battery backup device), and to operate in a low-power mode in response to receiving the control signal indicating the power outage.
