Communicating with and controlling load control systems

A method comprising:

• displaying, on a display screen, a warm/cool actuator and a full color actuator, wherein the warm/cool actuator is displaying a first control interface on the display screen that allows a user to control a color of a lighting load within a range of correlated color temperatures (CCTs), and wherein the full color actuator is displays a second control interface on the display screen that allows the user to control the color of the lighting load within a full color gamut;
• in response to detecting an actuation of the warm/cool actuator, displaying the first control interface, wherein the first control interface comprises a first color palette displaying the range of CCTs from a warm white color at a first end of the first color palette to a cool white color at a second end of the first color palette;
• in response to detecting an actuation of the full color actuator, displaying the second control interface, wherein the second control interface comprises a second color palette displaying the full color gamut, and wherein the second color palette comprises white colors within the full color gamut on one side of the second color palette enabling the user to select between the white colors and other colors within the full color gamut;
• detecting a selected color on the first palette or the second palette;
• and
• responsive to detecting the selected color on the first color palette or the second color palette, communicating via a communications circuit a message to a lighting control device that performs the control of the lighting load to the selected color on the first color palette or the second color palette.

At least one computer-readable storage medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one control circuit, cause the control circuit to:

• display, on a display screen, a warm/cool actuator and a full color actuator, wherein the warm/cool actuator is configured to display a first control interface on the display screen that is configured to allow a user to control a color of a lighting load within a range of correlated color temperatures (CCTs), and wherein the full color actuator is configured to display a second control interface on the display screen that is configured to allow the user to control the color of the lighting load within a full color gamut;
• in response to detecting an actuation of the warm/cool actuator, display the first control interface, wherein the first control interface comprises a first color palette configured to display the range of CCTs from a warm white color at a first end of the first color palette to a cool white color at a second end of the first color palette;
• in response to detecting an actuation of the full color actuator, display the second control interface, wherein the second control interface comprises a second color palette configured to display the full color gamut, and wherein the second color palette comprises white colors within the full color gamut on one side of the second color palette to enable the user to select between the white colors and other colors within the full color gamut;
• detect a selected color on the first color palette or the second color palette;
• and
• responsive to detecting the selected color on the first color palette or the second color palette, communicate via a communications circuit a message to a lighting control device that is configured to perform the control of the lighting load to the selected color on the first color palette or the second color palette.
