Abstract:
A lighting system controller, a lighting system control method and software program product are provided for controlling a lighting device based on a trigger signal, such as a presence detection signal from a presence sensor. Instead of switching the lighting device to a fixed light setting at all times when the trigger signal is received, the initial light output of the lighting device is determined. The lighting device is then controlled according to a fixed light setting (e.g. white light at full brightness) if the determined initial light output is within a predetermined range, and else it is controlled according to a function relative to the determined initial light output. For example, if the lighting device is participating in a romantic scene emitting predominantly red light the lighting device may switch to reddish white light instead of the full white light and/or the brightness level of the light is lowered compared to the fixed light setting.

Claim (Index 7):
A lighting system control method for controlling a lighting device for illuminating a space, the method comprising:\n receiving a trigger signal for changing a light output of the lighting device to a target light setting, determining as an initial light output the current light output of the lighting device, comprising the current color and/or the current brightness level, generating control data based on the target light setting if the determined color and/or brightness level is within a predetermined color and/or intensity level range, respectively, and else generating control data according to a function which determines a light setting relative to the determined initial light output, and controlling the lighting device according to the generated control data.
