computer to send commands at particular times of the day this will provide a very simple means of local control of a small number of spds a similar interface will exist for support of several wireless replacements to x 10 devices z wave insteon and 802 11 15 zigbee fig1 shows 5 controllers each controlling 24 window panes these window panes may physically be aligned so that a and b are next to each other and e and d are directly below them this would form an 8 times 12 pixel array commands from the mbcp will be sent via its local transmitter m into the wireless mesh network because of the mesh networking aspects of the controller network if the mbcs is capable of communicating directly with controller d but finds it cannot directly communicate with controller b it may route command data through node controller c to command b to set its pixels to control the settings at node a the command may for example go via the path m d e a or m d b a or m c b a fig1 shows show the letter u201c e u201d formed in a 5 by 7 pixel array of darkened windows with a border at the left and top having a width of a single window pixel fig1 shows a lighting effect in which each pane differs from its neighbor by a few percent it will be appreciated that this invention provides for a range.
