Abstract
A controlling device for controlling lighting parameters is connected to a number of lamps and includes a controlling member which is placed on a contact surface by a user. Lighting parameters of each lamp are determined based on the position of the controlling member on the contact surface. This enables the user to control the lighting parameters simply by controlling the position of the controlling member.
