After you define Lifestyles, you can activate them manually from the Home & Away
System Controller interfaces. If you would like more automatic control of devices, you
can schedule Lifestyles to automatically activate on specific days at specific times, using
the Scheduled Control page.
NOTE: The Home & Away System Controller interfaces identify a Lifestyle Last
Activated. Because Lifestyles are not continuous states, the last activated
Lifestyle may no longer be in effect. Continuing the example from above, the
Home Controller could show Home as the Last Lifestyle Activated, but the
porch and front hall lights may have been turned off at their switches.
You define all Lifestyles from the MyHome Portal Web interface:
1. Click the Details button in the Lifestyles area of the Home page. Home Controller
displays the Lifestyles page.
2. Select the Lifestyles you wish to define under the Show all events for the group
heading. Then click the Change button next to the name of the Lifestyles you want
to define. Home Controller responds by adding selection buttons next to each event
in the group and displaying Delete and Add buttons in the instruction area of the
page.
3. Add or Delete events as needed.
