ABSTRACT:
A lighting control system includes a server that is instructed by a lighting daemon to receive lighting control requests on a computer network and respond to the lighting control requests. Each lighting control request identifies a lighting load (directly or indirectly) and a lighting load state (e.g., full intensity) for the identified lighting load. When the server receives a lighting control request over the network, it is instructed to generate proprietary commands for an interface module, which controls the identified lighting load according to the lighting load state. Thus, the server allows lighting loads to be controlled by any Network Appliances connected to a computer network. Network Appliances can include web browsers, Virtual Light Switches and smart sensors.
