SCENES SETUP 

Before scenes can take effect when executed, a special 

Scene Setup

 set of 

codes must be issued first. This instructs each X10 module (an X10 
requirement) to accept the Scene Module Level settings when sent later in a 
Macro. This only needs to be sent the first time being used or any time any 
of the X10 modules have been disconnected from the AC source or after 
Power Outages. 
 
There are two methods of issuing these commands. 
1. Place 

the 

Scene Setup

 command on a dedicated button on the remote. 

When used for the first time or after power outages of any sort, select 
this button to issue the scene command and then continue to select any 
Macro containing a 

Scene Cmd

 (

Scene Cmd

 explained in the next 

section). If a dedicated button is not available (all commands on 
controller used), use method #2. 

2. Place 

the 

Scene Setup

 into a Macro following a ‘preferred’ 

Scene Cmd . 

This will save a button from only being used in Power Outages and 
place the 

Scene Cmd

 into a frequently used X10 Scene Macro. First 

time used, or after power outages, select this button twice (once to issue 

Scene Setup 

and second time will execute the desired 

Scene Cmd.

Method 2 will be described in the Programming an X10 Scene Macro 
section, Step #5. 

 

Note:

 You can also program a 

Scene Setup

  into 

Tier 2

 of your controller. 

This way, after a Power Failure or first time use, 

Push & Hold 

the Tier 2 

programmed button for more than 1 second to issue the 

Scene Setup

Please see your Dragon Drop-IR manual for further information 
regarding programming 

Tiered

 functions. 

 
Creating a Scene Setup via Method One: 
1.  Click Scenes Setup from the Function List Box. 
2.  Click a button on the URC-2P/B not used for any other function in your 

IR controlled system (e.g., the D button in the lower section of the URC-
2P/B remote). 

3.  Click Place from the Function section.  A special set of commands will 

be placed under the selected URC-2P/B button. Option: To make this 
button accessible under any Source Bank, right-click this URC-2P/B 
button and then left click Punch.  

 

CAUTION

:  Every time you make a change in Scene Programming, you 

must perform a new Scenes Setup procedure by repeating steps 1 through 
3.  Be sure to delete the old command set before placing the new one on the 
controller.
