Abstract: One variation of a method for normalizing manufacturing data includes: identifying a type of the digital component description document, including a set of part descriptor entries describing a set of physical parts, based on categories of physical parts described in part descriptor entries within the digital component description document; accessing a set of part descriptor rules corresponding to the type of the digital component description document; detecting deviation of a part descriptor entry, in the set of part descriptor entries, from a part descriptor rule in the set of part descriptor rules; at the user portal, serving a prompt to manually correct the part descriptor entry; and, in response to alignment between the digital component description document and the set of part descriptor rules, importing the set of part descriptor entries into the component library.

Abstract: A lighting system for and method of commissioning LED light fixtures is disclosed. The LED light fixtures include a controller unit that is programed with lighting firmware and an on-board 5 light sensor that is responsive to visible light signals from a light source. In operation, the light sensor is irradiated visible light signals and/or visible light sequences that instruct the LED light fixture via the controller unit to join a group, be locked into a group, run lighting programs and/or become un-locked from a group.

Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling communication with a wired sensor are provided. A wired sensor may be adapted for wireless communication using a sensor interface. A sensor interface is communicatively coupled with a wired sensor that provides information about a detected environmental condition. The sensor interface wirelessly transmits information received from the wired sensor to a controller that may control an electrical load based on the wirelessly transmitted information.
