A luminaire system comprising: one or more secondary luminaires; a primary luminaire communicatively connected to the one or more secondary luminaires via one or more hybrid, wired communication interfaces to one or more hybrid wired communication links, the primary luminaire including: one or more processors; one or more illumination sources (154a - 154n) one or more drivers; the one or more hybrid, wired communication interfaces; and one or more memories storing a set of computer-executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors, cause the primary luminaire to: send a driving command to a particular secondary luminaire of the one or more secondary luminaires via a particular hybrid, wired communication interface and an analog portion of a particular hybrid, wired communication link; at least one of (i) send, via the particular hybrid, wired communication interface and a digital portion of the particular, hybrid, wired communication link, a first administrative message to the particular secondary luminaire, or (ii) receive, via the particular hybrid, wired communication interface and the digital portion of the particular hybrid, wired communication link, a second administrative message from the particular secondary luminaire; and instruct the one or more drivers to energize the one or more illumination sources of the primary luminaire. one or more secondary luminaires; a primary luminaire communicatively connected to the one or more secondary luminaires via one or more hybrid, wired communication interfaces to one or more hybrid wired communication links, the primary luminaire including: one or more processors; one or more illumination sources (154a - 154n) one or more drivers; the one or more hybrid, wired communication interfaces; and one or more memories storing a set of computer-executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors, cause the primary luminaire to: send a driving command to a particular secondary luminaire of the one or more secondary luminaires via a particular hybrid, wired communication interface and an analog portion of a particular hybrid, wired communication link; at least one of (i) send, via the particular hybrid, wired communication interface and a digital portion of the particular, hybrid, wired communication link, a first administrative message to the particular secondary luminaire, or (ii) receive, via the particular hybrid, wired communication interface and the digital portion of the particular hybrid, wired communication link, a second administrative message from the particular secondary luminaire; and instruct the one or more drivers to energize the one or more illumination sources of the primary luminaire. send a driving command to a particular secondary luminaire of the one or more secondary luminaires via a particular hybrid, wired communication interface and an analog portion of a particular hybrid, wired communication link; at least one of (i) send, via the particular hybrid, wired communication interface and a digital portion of the particular, hybrid, wired communication link, a first administrative message to the particular secondary luminaire, or (ii) receive, via the particular hybrid, wired communication interface and the digital portion of the particular hybrid, wired communication link, a second administrative message from the particular secondary luminaire; and instruct the one or more drivers to energize the one or more illumination sources of the primary luminaire.
