Good to know:
Use the MRF Project-topology to define Rooms/Zones. This can be directly used to
define the SHC Zones.
Functionality in Zones are based on the installed Devices per Zone. Make a plan of the
needed functionality and components per Zone.
Control your lights by Scene buttons.
Use the planner to control your lights by time.
Use Macros to control your lights by events and conditions.
