Abstract
The invention relates to a control system for a lighting system comprising at least one control adapter having a digital interface for connection to an assigned digital control bus, to which a plurality of light-technology operating components such as control gear, ballast devices, sensor units, and/or switch units are connectable as bus users by means of a respective digital interface, wherein the at least one control adapter furthermore has a controller and a wireless interface for data coupling of the control adapter to a wireless network terminal. The control facility according to the invention is distinguished in that for at least one lighting system template, the respective comprised light-technology operating components and at least some of configurations and/or parameterizations assigned to the operating components are stored in a memory, which can be read out by the wireless network terminal, wherein the bus users connected to the digital control bus are detected for the configuration and startup of the lighting system. The invention furthermore relates to a method for the configuration and startup of such a facility.
