Claim Text:
1. A method for adjusting CCT values of a plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices using a lighting control device, comprising: receiving, at a user interface of the lighting control device, a first input specifying a desired intensity level and a second input specifying a maximum CCT value for the plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices, wherein the maximum CCT value indicates a normalized maximum CCT limit at full intensity for the plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices; determining a white component color temperature value for the plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices based on the first input and the second input, wherein the white component color temperature value is directly proportional to the first input specifying the desired intensity level; determining, based on the white component color temperature value, driver levels to control characteristics of emitted light of the plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices, wherein the driver levels include fixture-dependent values specific to each of the plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices and wherein the characteristics of the emitted light include an emitted CCT value reflecting warmth of the emitted light; outputting, via a common interface, the driver levels to the plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices; and responsive to changes to the first input, modifying the white component color temperature value to reflect variations of the warmth of the emitted light of the plurality of non-tungsten based lighting devices as the first input is changed.
