Multi configurable lighting and energy control system and modules
First Claim
1. A control module capable of controlling lighting, the control module comprising:
- a secondary interface including an input operable to receive at least one input signal configured to control a level of light emitted by a first light source from a receiver and a power output operable to power the receiver; and
a primary interface including one or more outputs configured to provide a control signal to adjust light emitted by one or more additional light sources based on the at least one input signal.

Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to lighting and energy control systems. In some embodiments, a control module is provided that can facilitate installation of lighting systems and control power consumption. Control module may control a ballast coupled to one or more lamps in a light fixture or energy consuming devices on a circuit. The control module can retrofit with various junction boxes or light fixtures and thus enable energy and sensor controls to be deployed in a wide variety of lighting installations which may be inaccessible due to cost or installation constraints. Control device may include a control circuit which provides relaying and one or more interfaces to provide power controls to various devices, such as ballasts, motors, appliances, or other devices.
