Installing or changing an executable computer program in an illumination system

A method for installing or changing an executable computer program in an illumination system with a plurality of illumination devices, which comprise a lighting device, a transmitting device arranged in or immediately at the lighting device and a respective computer unit, wherein the transmitting device wirelessly emits a signal with identification information specific to the transmitting device, the method comprising:

• providing data corresponding to the computer program to be installed or to be changed from a data source,
• communicating the data is communicated to the illumination devices, and
• installing the computer program in the respective computer units of the illumination devices in an automated manner or changing an already installed computer program in an automated manner based on the communicated data,
• wherein
• a communication link exists between the illumination devices,
• a first one of the illumination devices obtains the data from the data source, and
• for installing or changing the computer program in at least a second one of the illumination devices, the first one of the illumination devices communicates the data to the at least one second one of the illumination devices via the communication link.

An illumination system comprising:

• a plurality of illumination devices controlled by a respective computer unit, which comprise a lighting device and a transmitting device arranged in or immediately at the lighting device, wherein the transmitting device is formed to wirelessly emit a signal with identification information specific to the transmitting device,
• a data source connection for connecting to a data source providing data corresponding to a computer program to be installed or to be changed,
• wherein the illumination devices are formed to install the computer program in the respective computer units of the illumination devices in an automated manner or to change an already installed computer program in an automated manner based on the communicated data,
• wherein
• a communication link exists between the illumination devices,
• at least a first one of the illumination devices is formed to obtain the data from the data source, and
• for installing or changing the computer program in at least one second one of the illumination devices, the first one of the illumination devices is formed to communicate the data to the at least one second one of the illumination devices via the communication link.
