INSTEON Holiday Lighting - INSTANT INSTEON Ep. 6

In this episode, I configure my Insteon Hub with a scene called Holiday Lights to go on at sunset and off at 11pm daily. A total of seven devices are in the scene: 6 lamp dimmers for window candles and a micro on-off module that controls my outdoor outlets.

NOTE ABOUT "RESPONDER" VS. "BOTH"
When setting up a scene, each device can be set as a "Responder" (the default), "Controller", or "Both". I incorrectly selected "Both" in this video because I had used that setting when playing with the Hub and my Keypad Dimmer. I'll go into detail in a future video, but here's why "Both" was wrong: When a lamp module is set in "Both" mode, that means the lamp module also acts as a controller - which means pressing the module's "on" button turns on the scene. There may be times when this behavior would be useful, but not for the scenes in this video.
