Is there a step-by-step instruction for setting up scenes?

Recommended Posts

What are the best steps to creating scenes on a controlinc with the ISY? I have added the Controlincs and devices in the ISY. I have then tried creating a scene, added a Controlinc button followed by the devices I want it to control. The probem is I can't seem to get the Dim level or Ramp rates set correctly. Is there a timing issue? I'm trying to just select the scene and adjust the sliders for each device, but it doesn't appear to work correctly. I have one button working, but I can't remember what I did to get it set that way. Looking for a step-by-step instruction to setup a Controlinc scene with different Dim levels and different Ramp rates to that of what is controlled locally at the Switchlinc.

If you highlight the scene itself and make ramp rate/on level adjustments, those adjustmetns only affect when the scene is controlled through the ISY (for example through the Admin Console, web interface or using ISY Programs).

 

Keep in mind that every controller in a scene (including the scene itself) can have separate on levels and ramp rates.

 

To affect the scene when controlled by the ControLinc, highlight the ControLinc controller button within the scene and make the changes there.

So you've created the new scene (click on the painter's pallet and give it a name), then you right-clicked a controller button (a ControLinc button) and added it to the scene as a controller.

 

Next, you selected several other devices, right-clicked and added them to the scene as responders.

 

Now you should click on the scene name (not the enrolled devices, the scene itself) to pull up scene details. Adjust the sliders here for each of the enrolled devices.

 

Finally, click on the controller button within the scene and click on the button above the sliders that says "Copy Scene Attributes from [scene name]".
