Abstract
A method for commissioning a wireless lighting control system for network connectivity does not require special device network configuration steps during manufacturing. Network configuration happens dynamically and automatically during commissioning of a lighting control group. The method includes receiving at a mobile device an advertisement packet from each of a plurality of lighting control devices via a commissioning network. A commissioning network connection is established with each of the lighting control devices and the mobile device. A lighting control group network table listing an entry for each of the lighting control devices is built to establish the lighting control group that communicates over a lighting control network. The lighting control group network table is sent to a last lighting control device configured by the mobile device via the commissioning network. Receipt of the lighting control group network table readies the device to receive lighting control event messages for the group.
