The invention provides a lighting system and a lighting control component for such a system. The components are battery-operated, and include a remote control signal receiver for receiving commands and configurations during commissioning. A disabling system is provided for enabling and disabling the remote control signal receiver, such that the remote control signal receiver is enabled when a commissioning process of the lighting system is expected and disabled when a commissioning process of the lighting system is not expected. This reduces the power consumption of the component after the commissioning is complete but provides ease of use during commissioning.
