Scenes

A scene is a button that does many actions together. For example, the scene “Good night” turns off all the lights and the air conditioner.

Scenes show as buttons above the cards, in the device list.

Create a scene

A scene is a cloud rule with the source Manual trigger. The rule runs only when you click its button.

1. Open the side menu.
2. Click Tools > Cloud rules.
3. Click the + button for a new rule.
4. Under IF, select Manual trigger.
5. Under THEN, add one action for each device, group or floorplan that you want to change.
6. Type the Rule name. This is the name of the button.
7. Click Save.

The button shows in the device list. For all the options of the rule, see create a rule and actions.

Run a scene

Click the button of the scene. The actions run immediately, with no confirmation.

If the scene does not run, the app shows “Failed to trigger scene”. Check your connection and try again.

A device that is offline does not change. Check the status of the devices after the scene.
