# Scenes

## Scenes

Scenes are collections of Zone states and dim levels, and can be used to set multiple Zones to specified levels simultaneously. The Scenes view contains all the scenes for a Site and allows the user to create, manage, and activate them. Scenes can also be executed by Schedules and Automations.
