Start your smart home with one everyday scene

Choose a moment you want to simplify, then plan how the lights, curtains and air conditioning could work together.

A smart home does not need to begin with a long equipment list. Planning around one everyday routine first helps explain what the system should do for you.

Choose a moment that matters

It could be arriving home, relaxing or getting ready for bed. Write down what you want each device to do and how you would like to start that scene.

An illustrative scene: before bed

A planned scene could combine several actions, subject to checking which functions the selected equipment supports.

Switch off lights that are no longer needed and retain the lighting you want.
Close curtains to suit how the room is used.
Schedule air conditioning around your needs and the supported model.

Check compatibility before choosing equipment

Connectivity, dimming and control options vary by model. Bring the model details of existing lighting, air conditioning, curtains and controllers so they can be reviewed together before defining the scene.
