Abstract

Certain aspects involve lighting systems in which a dimming curve of the illumination can be selectively modified. For instance, a lighting system includes a light source configured for emitting light at a target color temperature and a switch configured to receive a selection of a dimming curve from a predefined set of dimming curves. When in a first position, the switch configures the light source to adjust a lumen intensity of the light source according to a dimming adjustment signal and a first dimming curve. When in a second position, the switch configures the light source to adjust the lumen intensity according to a dimming adjustment signal and a second dimming curve that is different from the first dimming curve.
