I have some high current draw items that I would like to start with one button push, but would like them to start sequentially rather than simultaneously.  I realize I can do this (the sequencing part) with a program but how do I get a button to run a program?  Of course the button I want to push is on my phone application so I can't just check the status of the button as with a KPL or similar.  To clarify one more direction I don't want a controller device and link responders because each device may be started without the need for the others.

Somewhat vague. Specifics might help.

I am with stusveiws on this...a few more details may be useful.

 

Staying very general, however, this could be done with a program:

 

If

Control "switch" is turned on

Then

Do something

Wait a little bit

Do something else

Wait a little bit more

Do something else

Etc....

 

If you need to initiate via a phone, one option would be to access via mobilinc app and run this program (then path).
