Commissioning system for a lighting system

Abstract

A commissioning system () for a lighting system, the lighting system comprising a plurality of controllers (), each controller () adapted to control a set of lighting units () spatially clustered as a group and controlled using a set of control outputs, wherein each control output is for controlling one or more lighting units of the set, the commissioning system comprising: an identification unit () for identifying the set of lighting units connected to a controller () from the plurality of controllers; a commissioning controller () for controlling the identified set of lighting units via the controller (), wherein the commissioning controller is adapted to enable the controller () to: generate a control output signal for the set of lighting units to display a light output pattern; and for a lighting unit within the set, to generate a further control output signal, to change the light output pattern at the lighting unit to enable the lighting unit within the set to be visually identified; a commissioning unit () adapted to: receive as an input a position of the visually identified lighting unit within the set; and based on the position of the visually identified lighting unit within the set to assign a logical address to the visually identified lighting unit within the set.
