How does that work then? Scene lighting isn't something I've really looked
at before, does each unit get programmed with it's own scene definition?

Eg:

HT Wall lights,
Scene 0:
ramp speed 15%,
dim 25%
X10 Address: A1

HT Spots,
Scene 0:
ramp speed 25%,
dim 0%
X10 Address: A1

HT Table Lamps,
Scene 0:
ramp speed 25%,
dim 10%
X10 Address: A1

So when you send A1 the Scene 0 command they all fire off at their own
individual ramp speeds to the right dim level?
