Abstract

Load control devices may form an energy control network for the purpose of controlling one or more electrical and/or mechanical loads related to energy control in residential and/or commercial environments. The various load control devices of the energy control network may communicate with one another via a wireless communication network. Access information for communicating with/on a wireless communication network often takes the form of character-based information, such as a service set identifier (SSID), a type of network security, and/or a security key. The load control devices may have user interfaces that may not be well suited via which to enter the access information for a wireless communication network. Techniques and devices are described to provide network access information wirelessly in the form of data packets of modulated lengths to load control devices that may decode the access information from the modulated lengths to join the wireless communication network.
