  3. Scenes

Scenes

Three scenes are set up: morning, evening and away.

How scenes work

A scene is a list of settings that are applied together, in order.

Each step names one device and one value, such as blinds: closed. A scene can hold up to twelve steps and runs from a key, a schedule or a sensor.

When a step fails

The scene carries on with the next step and reports the device that did not answer.

What is tried again

  • Lamps and plugs, twice within a minute.
  • Blinds, once after thirty seconds.
  • Locks are never tried again without you.

Running a scene from a schedule

A schedule can start a scene in place of a single device. Open Schedules, choose a time and pick the scene as its device.

Evening scene 4 steps

ceiling light: 40%
floor lamp:    on
blinds:        closed
heating:       21.5

Away

Everything off, heating at 15 degrees and the front door locked. It starts when the last phone leaves the flat.

Morning

Blinds open, the kitchen lamps come on at 50% and the heating goes to 20 degrees. It runs with the schedule that wakes the house.
