Lighting control system configurable by control device
First Claim
1. A lighting control system of a building environment comprising:
- a control device including a user interface to detect an activation of a configuration mode of the lighting control system, the control device being configured to control illumination for at least a portion of the building environment in response to a command input received at the user interface; and
a lighting device configured to receive wirelessly a message indicating that the activation of the configuration mode has been detected by the control device, the lighting device being further configured to receive wirelessly a directional signal from a directional device subsequent to receiving the message,wherein a membership status of the lighting device in a device group is changed in response to receiving the directional signal.

Abstract
There is described a lighting control system of a building environment comprising a control device and a lighting device. The control device is capable of detecting an activation of a configuration mode of the lighting control system and controlling illumination for the building environment in response to command inputs received at a user interface. The lighting device is capable of receiving a message indicating that the activation of the configuration mode has been detected by the control device and receiving a directional signal from a directional device subsequent to receiving the message. A membership status of the lighting device in a device group is changed in response to receiving the directional signal.
