Abstract
A method of provisioning LED fixtures in a wireless network includes: detecting nonvisible light emitted by each of the LED fixtures, using a portable wireless electronic device that comes into range of each of the LED fixtures one at a time; extracting, from the detected nonvisible light for each of the LED fixtures, a unique node ID assigned to each of the LED fixtures; and provisioning each of the LED fixtures into the wireless network, based on the unique ID extracted from the detected nonvisible light for each of the LED fixtures. Embodiments of the LED fixtures and a portable wireless electronic device used as part of the provisioning method are also described.
