Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for a load control system which produces a show by adjusting one or more parameter values, such as color temperature, intensity, spectrum, volume, load state, and position of a window covering, as a function of a show time equal to a current time of day. The load control system is responsive to receiving commands to adjust the show time with respect to the current time of day. The load control system is configured to respond to the received commands by initiating a temporary system override in which the one or more parameter values may rewind or forward in time according to the defined show. The temporary override may exit and the defined show may resume at the current time of day after a predetermined amount of time has passed, at a reset time, or in response to a command.
