Abstract:
1. A system for copying settings between lamps, the system, comprising a network transmitter coupled to a first lamp, a network receiver coupled to a second lamp, wherein the network transmitter and the network receiver are configured to establish a network connection if a distance therebetween is equal or less than a predetermined distance, and wherein the network transmitter is configured to read settings of the first lamp including intensity and color and to transmit said settings over the established network connection, the network receiver is configured to receive said settings, and to configure the second lamp in accordance therewith, the network transmitter is part of a first network transceiver and is adapted to transmit a search signal for a network receiver, the network receiver is part of a second network transceiver and is adapted to send a response signal in response to the receipt of a search signal from the first network transceiver, and wherein the first network transceiver is adapted to automatically establish a network connection with the second network transceiver upon receipt of the response signal, the second network transceiver is adapted to communicate the capabilities of the second lamp over the established network connection to the first network transceiver, which is adapted to compare the received capabilities of the second lamp with the capabilities of the first lamp and to decide which settings of the first lamp to transmit over the established network connection; the first network transceiver is adapted to communicate the capabilities of the first lamp over the established network connection to the second network transceiver, which is adapted to compare the received capabilities of the first lamp with the capabilities of the second lamp and to request which settings of the first lamp to transmit over the established network connection.
