The lamp control unit comprises power supply means 12 that provides electrical power for operation of the lamp control unit, lamp actuating means 14 that actuates at least one lamp to which the lamp control unit can be electrically coupled, and a programmable controller 16 that controls the lamp actuating means according to a stored cyclical pattern. The cyclical pattern is related to at least one of a sunrise time and a sunset time and is configured for programming of the programmable controller 16 with the cyclical pattern in accordance with the user's requirements. The lamp control unit 10 lacks field operable programming means for programming the programmable controller with the cyclical pattern and the lamp controller is further configured for programming of the programmable controller with the cyclical pattern within a factory environment. |
