According to another embodiment, each switch of user interface 205 is used individually to instruct processing circuit 303 whether to apply power to illumination device 103 or not. FIG. 6 shows a table of switch positions and their associated preconfigured ON/OFF sequences that effect energization/de-energization of illumination device 103. The preconfigured ON/OFF sequence determines whether the load turns ON or OFF during initial power up and in the event of a power toggle sensed thereafter. In this particular embodiment, user interface 205 comprises a three-switch DIP switch, as shown in FIG. 4. In this particular embodiment, the first switch of the DIP switch determines if illumination device 103 will turn ON or remain OFF when light switch 100 is initially placed into the “ON” position. Illumination device 103 will remain ON or OFF as long as the light switch 100 is in the “ON” position.
