| Title: |
Apparatus for Communicating with a Remote Computer to Control an Assigned Lighting Load |
| Abstract: |
A local computer generates requests for a remote computer to control a
remotely-located lighting load. The local computer generates and displays
a control panel, which prompts a user to enter an intensity for the
remotely located lighting load. When an intensity is entered into the
computer, the computer generates a lighting control request and sends the
lighting control request to the remote computer. The remote computer
controls power to the remotely-located lighting load according to the
lighting control request.
