Read full descriptionHide full description
SceneSet is an app for controlling Helvar's Imagine® Router system over WiFi, or connecting to the new ILLUSTRIS control panels using Bluetooth®. The app offers simple control and modification of lighting scenes as well as the ability to control DALI Type 8 load devices for colour temperature or full colour lighting applications. When connected to an Imagine Router system with WiFi, multiple pages or system groups are supported. Using a Bluetooth connection to ILLUSTRIS, the app mimics the panel that it is connected to, providing the same control functions available on the panel as well as offering the ability to change settings in the panel. Requires iOS 8 or later for full support of features (backup and restore are not available on versions of iOS below 8).

The Flos Control® app is the easiest and most natural way to control your lights. The first time use has been made easy and intuitive. Just one tap and you’ll be ready to control your lights. Controlling all your lamps from one view: With the Flos Control® app you can manage all your lighting fixtures with one view. It is possible to control lights individually or as a group. For example you can create a group for your kitchen, office or shop lights and turn them all off / on with just one tap. Or you can dim the living room lights until reaching a pleasant light level for a movie. Control your lights from a photo: The Gallery in Flos Control® app is the most natural way of controlling your lights. Take a picture of your room(s) and place the lamp controls over the lighting fixtures in the picture. Now you can control your lighting fixtures visually right from the picture. Create scenes for different lighting situations: You can create different scenes for different occasions. Set the lights just right for dining, office environments or shop promotions and save the settings in a scene. Now you can change the lighting with one tap for different occasions for example a dinner party or a meeting with a customer. Share your network and allow other devices to control your lights: Flos Control® has four different levels for sharing and access control. You can decide if your network is open to everyone or if other users need a password to access your network. If you have several users and devices using the same network, all the changes made with one device will be automatically updated to the other devices with Flos Control® cloud service.
