A method for operatively interconnecting a first and second lighting control
subnet
is disclosed. In the method, a link claim is transmitted to the first and second
lighting control subnets from a bridge. The link claim directs the first and second
lighting control subnets to wait for a lighting control command, which is transmitted
to the lighting control command to the first lighting control subnet. A random
wait time is assigned to the first lighting control subnet and a maximum random
wait time is assigned to the second lighting control subnet. Finally, an acknowledgement
is received from the first lighting control subnet.
