Abstract:
A method of automatically programming a new load control device that replaces an old load control device takes advantage of a remote identification tag (e.g., an RFID tag) located in the vicinity of the old device. The remote identification tag stores an identifier that is representative of a location in which the old device is installed. The method includes the steps of: (1) storing a setting of an old device in a memory of a controller; (2) associating the setting with the identifier of the old device in the memory of the controller; (3) the new device retrieving the identifier from the remote identification tag after the new device is installed in the location of the old device; (4) the new device transmitting the identifier to the controller; and (5) the controller transmitting the setting of the old device to the new device in response to receiving the identifier.

Claim (Index 15):
A method of configuring a lighting control device for a lighting control system, the method comprising:\n associating a configuration setting for the lighting control device with an identifier of an identifier-transmitting device, the identifier representative of a location in which the identifier-transmitting device is installed; receiving by the lighting control device a first digital message including the identifier from the identifier-transmitting device when the lighting control device is located in the vicinity of the identifier-transmitting device; after receiving the first digital message, transmitting from the lighting control device a second digital message including the identifier; and after transmitting the second digital message, receiving by the lighting control device a third digital message including the configuration setting associated with the identifier.
