PLEASE Lutron: Timeclock & Occupancy software change
My number 1 timewaster is having to manually re-program complex lighting scenes that I want triggered by a timeclock event or occupancy event.
I go to all the trouble of making a "shared scene" so that a complex particular set of light levels can be on multiple keypads, but then find I can't trigger that same shared scene from a timeclock event, so it has to be manually created all over again. Same for an occupancy/vacancy trigger.
Then when the homeowner wants a slight change to a scene, changing the shared scene is easy enough, but then i have to remember to change timeclock events that should call this same scene... each one manually!
PLEASE LUTRON: Allow shared scenes to be triggered by Timeclock and Occupancy events! Would save us tons of time, and improve consistency for our clients. Seems this should be simple software change now that the concept of a shared scene exists in the system.

seconded! here are more words for ten characters.

Sounds like you want HWQS Lite. None of the hardware but all of the software features.

Count me in too. Shared scenes are a great feature and having the Essentials software better support them better would be very helpful.

thats a good idea! the ability to copy/past a shared scene. hopefully they come up with something
