Method and System for the Wireless Remote Control of Marker Lights
First Claim
1. A system for wirelessly controlling marker lights comprising:
- a remote controller comprising a transmitter,a plurality of marker lights, each said marker light comprising a receiver and processing means, and each said marker light having a configuration mode in which said processing means is adapted to cause said receiver to wirelessly receive data from said transmitter, said data comprising one or more group identifiers to assign one or more groups to each said marker light, andwherein said processing means of each said marker light is adapted to cause said receiver to wirelessly receive one or more commands from said transmitter for controlling the operation of said marker light, and said processing means is adapted to carry out said commands when said commands comprise the same one or more group identifiers that correspond to said one or more groups to which said marker light was assigned.

Abstract
A system for wirelessly controlling marker lights comprising a remote controller comprising a transmitter and one or more marker lights. Each of the marker lights comprise a receiver and processing means, and each of the marker lights have a configuration mode in which the processing means is adapted to cause the receiver to wirelessly receive data from the transmitter This data comprises one or more group identifiers to assign one or more groups to the marker light. In addition, the processing means of each of the marker lights is adapted to cause the receiver to wirelessly receive one or more commands from the transmitter for controlling the operation of the marker light. The processing means is adapted to carry out the command when the commands comprise the same one or more group identifiers that correspond to the one or more groups to which the marker light was assigned.
