1. A lighting network, comprising:
a plurality of nodes configured to wirelessly communicate messages; a plurality of sensors coupled to the plurality of nodes; a plurality of light sources coupled the plurality of nodes; and a site controller configured to receive sensor data from the plurality of sensors and to transmit commands to the plurality of nodes for controlling the plurality of light sources based on the sensor data, the site controller configured to store a site plan including a listing of the plurality of nodes and, for each of the plurality of nodes, indicating a number of sensors to be coupled to the respective node, the site controller further configured to detect the plurality of sensors coupled to the plurality of nodes based on the sensor data and to compare the detected plurality of sensors to the site plan for determining whether the detected plurality of sensors is consistent with the site plan, including determining whether each of the plurality of nodes is coupled to a number of the plurality of sensors consistent with the site plan, wherein the site controller is configured to provide an alert if the detected plurality of sensors is inconsistent with the site plan. |
