Claim 9:
10. A control adapter configured to manage a pattern of lighting themes for at least one lamp, the control adapter comprising:
a microprocessor; and
memory storing instructions that when executed by the microprocessor cause the control adapter to:
receive, over line voltage wiring, a data encoded power signal that provides power and encoded messages including pattern information, wherein the pattern information includes a request to implement a lighting theme pattern of a plurality of lighting theme patterns or a pattern definition that defines at least a portion of a lighting theme pattern, wherein the at least a portion of the lighting theme pattern comprises an indication of a lighting theme of a plurality of lighting themes, the control adapter configured to be in electrical communication with the at least one lamp;
decode at least a portion of the encoded message from the received data encoded power signal;
for the decoded at least a portion that includes the pattern definition, store the indication of the lighting theme in the memory; and
for the decoded at least a portion that includes the requested lighting theme pattern,
retrieve from the memory one or more stored lighting themes that are associated with the requested lighting theme pattern;
retrieve from the memory one or more stored settings for the respective lamp that are associated with the one or more retrieved lighting themes; and
provide in sequence to the respective lamp, a signal responsive to the retrieved one or more settings for each lighting theme of the requested lighting theme pattern.
