AUTOMATIC AND DECENTRALIZED COMMISSIONING OF REPLACEMENT LIGHTING UNITS
First Claim
1. A lighting unit (250), comprising:
- one or more light sources (258); and
a controller (252) configured to;
obtain, from one or more remote lighting units (250) over one or more communication networks (L7, L5), one or more identifiers associated with the one or more remote lighting units;
obtain, from each of the one or more remote lighting units over the one or more communication networks, lighting operation parameters associated with at least one other remote lighting unit; and
selectively energize the one or more light sources in accordance with the lighting operation parameters associated with an inoperative lighting unit.

Abstract
Lighting units, lighting systems, and methods are described herein for automatic and decentralized commissioning of a replacement lighting unit (140, 150, 250). In various embodiments, a replacement lighting unit may receive, from one or more remote lighting units over one or more communication networks, one or more identifiers associated with the one or more remote lighting units. The replacement lighting unit may also receive, from at least one of the one or more remote lighting units over the one or more communication networks, the lighting operation parameters associated with an inoperative lighting unit. The replacement lighting unit may then selectively energize one or more light sources (258) associated with the replacement lighting unit to emit light having one or more properties indicated in the lighting operation parameters associated with the inoperative lighting unit.
