Controlling Motorized Window Treatments in Response to Multiple Sensors

A system, the system comprising:

• a plurality of load control devices, each load control device operable to adjust an amount of light entering the space;
• a plurality of sensors, each sensor mounted adjacent at least one of the load control devices, each sensor configured to measure an amount of light;
• and
• a system controller configured to:
• receive a light measurement from each sensor;
• compare the light measurements to each other;
• determine whether a difference between each light measurement is within a predetermined amount of each other;
• dynamically group the sensors into sensor groups based upon the determination;
• and
• control the load control devices based upon the sensor groups.

A method for dynamically grouping sensors, the method comprising:

• receiving a plurality of parameter measurements from a plurality of sensors;
• comparing the parameter measurements from each sensor;
• determining whether a difference between each parameter measurement is within a predetermined amount of each other;
• grouping together those sensors into sensor groups for which the difference is less than the predetermined amount;
• and
• changing the grouping of the sensors when at least one difference between parameter measurements within the sensor group is greater than the predetermined amount, or when the difference between parameter measurements of at least one sensor within the sensor group and at least one other sensor not in the sensor group is less than the predetermined amount.
