Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008050284A1] After a power interruption, a remote controllable device may determine (SlO) whether the power interruption was intended by a user or was not intended by a user. In particular, a user may use a (light) switch (SW) to switch the controllable device (CC, LD) off, or a power failure may cause a power supply interruption. Based on the determined cause of power interruption, a start setting for operating the controllable device (CC, LD) after the power interruption is selected (S 12, S 14, S 16). In an embodiment, the intention of the user is determined by verifying (S 102) whether a power supply to another controllable device was also just restored, or not.
