Abstract
A scalable lighting control system comprising a plurality of room lighting control systems each comprising a load controller electrically connected to a lighting load and one or more in-room devices, such as lighting control devices, occupancy sensors, and light sensors. Each in-room device is configured for transmitting room control messages to the load controller over a room wireless network. The scalable lighting control system further comprises a plurality of network bridges each configured for removably coupling to at least one load controller of a room lighting control system to connect the room lighting control system to a centralized wireless network. Each network bridge is configured for receiving centralized control messages over the centralized wireless network and transmitting the centralized control messages to the connected load controller. The load controller is configured for controlling the electrically connected lighting load in response to the room control messages and the centralized control messages.
