scene buttons


Explanation:
of scene keys: een toets waarmee met één druk op de knop een opgeslagen combinatie van verlichting (al of niet gedimd) en evt. zonwering en andere elektrische toeters en bellen (b.v. een beamer in een vergaderzaal) kan worden opgroepen. Dit worden ook wel lichtscènes genoemd. Zie b.v. http://www.gira.com/nl/ (Producten>Handmatige lichtregeling>Lichtscène-tastsensor)

Overigens kan het zo zijn in jou geval, afhankelijk van hoe de eenheid eruit ziet, dat hier geen sprake is van 18 toetsen maar van 18 geheugenposities, die je met een andere, passende bedieningseenheid kunt opvragen.

neutral  Ken Cox: probably more for professional applications (I'd go for 'atmosphere', 'ambience' or 'mood' for home use) // No argument (it sounds like the kind of thing Bill Gates would have in his home)

  -> The described unit strikes me as rather professional, but in general this area of domotica is not quite your average DIY stuff, anyway.
