    Abstract: A method and a lighting control system for automatically determining a calibration curve for use in daylight harvesting applications. The lighting control system comprises a light sensor configured for recording light levels and a load controller configured for provide a dimmed output to a lighting load. The calibration curve comprises a calibration slope (SC) defined by a calibration coordinate (CC) and a night coordinate (CN). The calibration coordinate (CC) comprises a calibration dimming level (DC) set by a user and a calibration light level (LC) recorded by the light sensor when the lighting load is set to the calibration dimming level (DC). The night coordinate (CN) comprises a night scene dimming level (DN) and a night scene light level (LN), wherein the night scene light level (LN) comprises a difference between a sunlight plus night scene light level (LNS) recorded by the light sensor when the lighting load is set to the night scene dimming level (DN) and a sunlight level (LS) recorded by the light sensor when the lighting load is turned off.
