Publication number: 20250062955Abstract: A load control system may be commissioned using beacons. The load control system may include control devices that each include a beacon transmitting circuit configured to transmit a beacon that comprises an identifier associated with the control device. A network device, such as a mobile device, may discover a control device based on the beacon received from the control device. In response to discovery of the control device, the control device may be added to a temporary group of control devices for being collectively configured and/or controlled. Control devices may be discovered based on the signal strength at which the beacons are received. The control devices may provide feedback to a user in response to confirmation messages to indicate to a user that the lighting control device has been added to the temporary group. The control devices may stop providing the feedback after they are removed from the temporary group.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2024Publication date: February 20, 2025Applicant: Lutron Technology Company LLCInventors: Todd G. Anderson, Maxwell Anselm, Alcides Dias, Vidur Garg, Ashok Karmani, Sanjeev Kumar, Anantha Nag Nemmani, Sandeep Mudabail Raghuram, Somesh Rahul, Jaykrishna A. Shukla, Surjith Bhagavath Singh
