Abstract
A method includes receiving, via a wireless communication interface of a provisioning device, wireless advertisements from lighting system elements. The method further includes determining, via the provisioning device, signal strengths to the lighting system elements based on the wireless advertisements or reported signal levels between the lighting system elements. The method further includes forming a lighting control group by the following steps. First, iteratively transmitting, via the provisioning device, a flashing command to each lighting system element to cause a light source on a lighting system element to flash in order of the determined signal strengths from highest to lowest. Second, determining whether the lighting system element with the light source flashing is being added to the lighting control group. Third, assigning, via the provisioning device, some or all of the lighting system elements to the lighting control group based on the determination.
