Set the Right Scene

Whether you’re staying in for the night or setting up for a dinner party, setting a lighting “scene” can make it easier to plan and enjoy the moment. Instead of needing to readjust your lighting to how you like it for certain events, you can instead just press a single button and have your light fixtures all respond accordingly.

For example, pushing a “dinner” scene can dim your dining room’s lights and a “movie night” scene can turn them off completely in your media room or home theater. These scenes eliminate unnecessary work on your part, and you can tie them in with other smart features in your home, such as motorized shades and audio video solutions.
