Method of configuring a keypad of a load control system

A method of configuring a keypad for use in a load control system, the keypad comprising a plurality of switches, the method comprising the steps of:

• installing a first button assembly on the keypad, the first button assembly having a first button configuration defining the number and arrangement of buttons on the first button assembly;
• the keypad storing in a memory of the keypad a first data representing the first button configuration;
• removing the first button assembly from the keypad;
• installing a second button assembly on the keypad, the second button assembly having a second button configuration defining the number and arrangement of buttons on the second button assembly;
• simultaneously actuating a first button and a second button of the second button assembly to actuate at least two of the switches of the keypad for a predetermined amount of time;
• the keypad detecting that the first button and the second button of the second button assembly have been actuated for the predetermined amount of time;
• the keypad subsequently determining if any of the tactile switches actuated by the buttons between the first button and the second button of the second button assembly were also actuated by the buttons of the first button configuration of the first button assembly;
• and
• the keypad storing in the memory of the keypad a second data representing the second button configuration dependent upon which tactile switches were actuated when the first and second buttons were actuated for the predetermined amount of time.

A method of configuring a keypad for use in a load control system, the keypad comprising an infrared receiver and a plurality of switches, the method comprising the steps of:

• mechanically coupling with a button assembly to the keypad;
• simultaneously actuating a first button and a second button of the button assembly to actuate at least two of the switches of the keypad for a predetermined amount of time;
• the keypad entering an advanced programming mode in response to the step of simultaneously actuating a keypad detecting that the first button and the second button have been actuated for the predetermined amount of time;
• the keypad subsequently receiving an infrared command via the infrared receiver;
• and
• the keypad enabling the infrared receiver during normal operation of the keypad.
