Creating Scenes
Scenes are a powerful INSTEON management tool. A scene can be made up of 2-200+ devices. For
each device you choose whether the device is a controller of the scene and/or a responder of the scene.
If the device is a responder, you also choose the devices settings for any given scene (e.g. brightness
level and ramp rate for a light).
1) In the left pane, right-click
anywhere in the scenes tab (or,
you can click on the icon
2) Name the scene and click “OK”
3) In the right pane, click on your
column of choice to organize your
devices for scene inclusion (e.g.
Room)
4) For each device, click the
Controller and/or Responder
boxes
5) Repeat for all scene members
