Abstract
A control system for a facility can automatically control lighting conditions in an area of a facility to prevent the accidental turning off of lights in the area while machines or equipment are operating in the area. The control system can use information from a compressed air system that provides compressed air to the machines in the area to determine if the machines are presently being used in the area. If the machines are being used, the control system can control the lighting conditions in the area to provide a appropriate level of lighting. If the machines are not being used in the area, the control system can control the lighting conditions in the area based on one or more occupancy sensors used to determine if a person is located in the area.
