Abstract: A method of controlling an electrical control system, the system including a switch module to control power delivery from a power source to at least one load, the switch module including first and second traveler lines to connect the switch module to a load or to a corresponding switch in a three-way configuration, the method including receiving, at the switch module, a first signal from the first traveler line, receiving, at the switch module, a second signal from the second traveler line, receiving, at the switch module, a third signal from a common line, where the common line is connected to the load or the power source, identifying a waveform pattern based on the first signal, second signal and third signal, determining a state of the load based on the identified waveform pattern, and controlling a display of a user interface based on the determined state of the load.
