Abstract

The present disclosure provides intelligent lighting control systems. The lighting control systems include a switch control circuit including a processor configured to cause a transmitter communicably coupled to the processor to initiate direct wireless communication with a mobile electronic device via a wireless protocol, the mobile electronic device operating a mobile application and communicably coupled to a remote server system via a dual factor authentication. The processor is configured to broadcast a device pin to the mobile electronic device via the wireless protocol, wherein the device pin comprises one or more of a serial number, a UUID and an actuator state. The processor is configured to obtain Wi-Fi credentials from the application via an encrypted exchange with the mobile electronic device. The processor is configured to initiate an authentication sequence with the remote server system using the Wi-Fi credentials and the device pin.
