Scene Setup
Scenes are used to control connected devices when the system receives a user-defined trigger. The trigger can be the system's clock
and calendar, or the condition of connected devices (locked/unlocked, lights on or off, thermostats reaching a pre-defined
temperature). Scenes can also be triggered manually.
To set up a Scene:
Scene Rules
• Triggers and Conditions include: Time setting, Security mode, Thermostat setting, Door & Garage Door status and Water Valve
status.
• Actions include: Security mode, Lights On/Off, Thermostat setting, Door & Garage Door lock status, Water Valve status and
Recording.
• A Trigger event can initiate as many as 3 Actions.
• A Trigger event and a Condition cannot be the same. For instance, if you set a Security event like Arming as a Trigger, you cannot
select a Security event to serve as a Condition.
• As many as 10 Scenes can be created and saved from the touchscreen itself. However, the system can be operated by up to 20
Scenes coming from Total Connect.
• In commercial systems, the programming option for Global Keypad must be set to “0”. Otherwise, some Scenes will not work
properly.
Note: The Condition is a ‘pre-condition’ set to occur prior to a trigger event. See the example on the next page.
