Yes indeed it is - just double checked and assigned two dimmers to one
scen=
e (with 4x Iris and a beyond table lamp) - works fine :)

All,
Is it possible to have multiple dimmer switches associated with a scene ?
Cheers

Just so I've got this right, the Philips hub is just a bridge between the

To get some level of automation (which is why we are all here :)) then

f=
rom off to say 25% and fade it back down again when the movement stops.
As I said, small steps :)
