Abstract:
A control device may be configured to control one or more electrical loads in a load control system. The control device may be a wall-mounted device such as dimmer switch, a remote control device, or a retrofit remote control device. The control device may include a gesture-based user interface for applying advanced control over the one or more electrical loads. The types of control may include absolute and relative control, intensity and color control, preset, zone, or operational mode selection, etc. Feedback may be provided on the control device regarding a status of the one or more electrical loads or the control device.

Claim (Index 1):
A control device configured for use in a load control system to control a plurality of electrical loads external to the control device, the control device comprising:\n a user input device configured to detect a user input; a plurality of light sources configured to backlight at least a portion of the user input device to display multiple discrete points of illumination each representing a preset associated with the plurality of electrical loads; and a control circuit configured to:\n illuminate one or more of the plurality of light sources to display the multiple discrete points of illumination; \n determine that a discrete point of the multiple discrete points of illumination has been selected; \n control the plurality of light sources to illuminate the selected discrete point in a manner distinguishable from the rest of the multiple discrete points of illumination; and \n generate control data to control the plurality of electrical loads based on the preset associated with the selected discrete point.
