Scenes

Tap a scene to recall the lighting scene.

Light scenes can be created by the Crestron Home dealer or the homeowner.

NOTES: For Crestron Home systems that include Lutron lighting controls:

  • The Crestron Home user interface does not provide individual load control and load feedback for RA2 Select systems.
  • If a Lutron scene controls a light and a shade, recalling the lighting scene also controls the shades.

The room may contain these default scenes:

  • All On: Turns all lights in the room on. The default configuration includes all lights in the room and sets the lights to On (100%). The All On scene can be modified to include lights in different rooms or to set the lights to a different brightness level. This scene can be hidden or shown in other rooms.
  • All Off: Turns all lights in the room off. The default configuration includes all lights in the room and sets the lights to Off (0%). The All Off scene can be modified to include lights in different rooms or to set the lights to a different brightness level. This scene can be hidden or shown in other rooms.
  • Circadian scene: Available when any light in the room is included in the Circadian lighting settings. When active, the lights adjust according to the levels defined in the Circadian settings. For dimmable lights, the light intensity is adjusted. For tunable lights, the color temperature and intensity is adjusted. For details, refer to Settings.
  • SolarSync scene: Available when tunable lights and a SolarSync® outdoor daylight and color temperature sensor (GLS-LCCT) is included in the installation. When active, the lights adjust the color temperature to match the outdoor color temperature values provided by the sensor. The intensity of the lights adjust according to the levels defined in Circadian settings. If the outdoor light levels are low (for example, it is night time or significant cloud cover is blocking the sun), the color temperature defined in Circadian settings is used.

Light Controls

Use the All Lights menu or Controls menu to control the lights.

Note: For light controllers that support override mode, consider the following:

  • When Override mode is active, the intensity for all lights is set to their defined override levels and the lights cannot be controlled.
  • If the light intensity is changed when Override mode is active, the interface displays the changes but the lights will not be controlled. After exiting Override mode, the intensity shown on the interface and the actual intensity of the light levels will be out of sync. The levels will synchronize when the light is controlled.

All Lights

Use the All Lights menu to adjust all lights in the room at the same time.
