wherein said mobile device comprises:

at least one mobile device input interface;

at least one mobile device output interface; and

at least one mobile device processor configured to:

select said first wireless communication technology for commissioning said lighting device,

transmit, via said at least one mobile device output interface, a message to at least one lighting device to cause said at least one lighting device to render a light effect upon receipt of said message, said at least one lighting device comprising said lighting device and said message not causing said further lighting device to render said light effect, said message indicating that said mobile device intends to scan, using said first wireless communication technology, for any lighting device which can be commissioned using said first wireless communication technology,

wherein said lighting device comprises:

at least one light source;

at least one lighting device input interface;

at least one lighting device output interface; and

at least one lighting device processor configured to:

receive using said first wireless communication technology, via said at least one lighting device input interface, a first message from said mobile device, said first message indicating that said mobile device intends to scan, using said first wireless communication technology, for any lighting device which can be commissioned using said first wireless communication technology,

determine whether said lighting device can be commissioned using said first wireless communication technology,

control said at least one light source to render a light effect upon receipt of said message in dependence on said determination whether said lighting device can be commissioned via said first wireless communication technology, said first message not causing said further lighting device to render said light effect,

receive, via said at least one lighting device input interface, using said first wireless communication technology, a second message from said mobile device, and

transmit, via said at least one lighting device output interface, using said first wireless communication technology, a third message to said mobile device in response to said second message, said third message confirming that said lighting device can be controlled by said mobile device using said first wireless communication technology.
