indicating LEDs or a KeypadLinc's button LED, will be updated when the scene is controlled
from any other controller in the scene. In this sense, an ISY scene is a multi-directional
group. If a scene were created manually without ISY, all of the required unidirectional
INSTEON group links and cross-links would need to be manually created.
It should be noted that all links created by ISY are standard INSTEON links and are stored
in the INSTEON devices. Therefore, after the required scenes are created, the ISY/PLM
could be removed from the network, and the scenes would continue to function as
programmed.
7.6.4 Working with Scenes
Selecting a scene in the Main tab's tree view will display in the top portion of the right pane,
a list of all devices which are responders in that scene together with their current status,
similar to the list of all managed device displayed when My Lighting is selected. The bottom
portion of the right pane will display the ISY scene settings on-level and ramp-rate sliders
for each of the scene's responder devices. These are the settings which will be used when
the scene is controlled by ISY, either in response to user actions in the GUI, or in response
to ISY programs or schedules.
When the scene is expanded in the tree view, it opens a list of all devices in the scene, with
controllers displayed in red typeface, and responders in blue typeface. Selecting a
controller within a scene displays in the right pane a list of the scene's responder devices
with status on top, and a list of their on-level and ramp-rate settings on the bottom, similar
to that displayed when the scene is selected. But in this case, the settings displayed are the
controller-specific scene settings which will take effect when that particular controller is
used to control the scene. When these settings are changed, the changes take effect
immediately.
Selecting a responder device within a scene displays in the right pane the device's status
and local settings, and is the same display as shown when the device is selected in My
Lighting. Changing these settings in either location will have the identical effect.
7.6.5 Adding a New Scene
To add a new scene, open the Link Management menu and choose New Scene. A New Scene
window will be displayed, allowing the new scene to be given a name.
7.6.6 Removing a Scene
In the tree view of the Main tab, right-click on the scene and from the context menu choose
Remove Scene. A Confirm window is displayed, and if OK is chosen the scene is removed.
