Abstract: An energy control network may include a number of load control devices, such as dimmer switches, multi-button selector switch, occupancy sensors, and remote controllers, among others. These load control devices may be configured for wireless communication. Other wireless devices, such as laptops, tablets, and “smart” cellular phones may be configured to communicate with the load control devices of the energy control network. The load control devices and the other wireless communication devices may also be configured for Near Field Communication (NFC). NFC may be used to provide a load control device with its initial default configuration and/or an application specific configuration. Also, NFC may be used to transfer a configuration from one load control device that may have become faulty, to a replacement load control device. And NFC may be used to provide and trigger commands that may cause a load control load device to operate in a predetermined manner.

Abstract translation: 能量控制网络可以包括多个负载控制装置，诸如调光开关，多按钮选择器开关，占用传感器和遥控器等。 这些负载控制装置可以被配置用于无线通信。 诸如笔记本电脑，平板电脑和“智能”蜂窝电话的其他无线设备可以被配置为与能量控制网络的负载控制设备进行通信。 负载控制装置和其它无线通信装置也可以被配置用于近场通信（NFC）。 可以使用NFC来提供具有其初始默认配置和/或应用特定配置的负载控制设备。 此外，NFC可以用于将可能变得有故障的一个负载控制装置的配置传送到替换负载控制装置。 并且可以使用NFC来提供和触发可能导致负载控制负载设备以预定方式操作的命令。
