Figure 12. New Scene Dialog
You can drag and drop any one of the devices already linked to the system into any scene. If you
click and drag correctly you will see a plus sign next to the device you are dragging. Dragging
devices to scenes will not remove it from the master list of devices (ISY Node) or from other
scene(s) they already belong to. As such, each device may belong to many scenes.
You can select multiple devices by holding down CNTRL key and selecting the devices with the
mouse pointer. Drag the selected devices and drop them into the scene folder. A prompt screen
to set which device is the controller or responder will be presented. Select the device then click
on the “Controller/Responder” button to set the device. This button toggles between responder
and controller.
Figure 13. Confirm Add dialog or prompt.
A device assigned as the controller of the scene is the device that initiates the scene. This device
will control the responders according to the level and ramp rate settings.
It may take roughly 10 seconds to a few minutes to reprogram the device(s) to become part of a
scene depending on the complexity and the number of other devices, and especially
controllers/masters, for that scene.
