Abstract
Systems, methods, and modes for generating a custom dimming curve to more accurately controlling lighting loads, comprising at least one controller adapted: drive a lighting load by incrementally increasing light output levels from an initial minimum light output level to an initial maximum light output level; during each light output level increment, receive a light level reading from a light sensor; determine at which light output level increment the lighting load has turned on and set that determined light output level as a determined minimum light output level; determine at which light output level increment the lighting load has stopped increasing in intensity and set that determined light output level as a determined maximum light output level; and determine a custom dimming curve comprising the determined minimum light output level and determined maximum light output level in relation to a minimum dimming input level and a maximum dimming input level.
