I have discovered a yet another practical benefit of this system.
From the Master Bedroom orbiter screen - "House To Sleep Mode"
I have recently put a MD in my bedroom, and every night, while the wife watches Lifetime or some other food channel, I can go back there and catch up on my SciFi recordings, or start to watch a movie. I have picture windows in that room, that looks out over my property, this floor of the house is actually up off the finished grade by about 12 feet, so I get quite the vista view effect, but anyways, down the road looking out that window is my brother-in-laws place, and he has a 13 year old son, who is in the habit of touching and sometimes breaking all my stuff, but anyways, without further delay.........
Now when I see my annoying nephew from down the road heading for the house, you know the one who comes in, and touches, sometimes breaking all your stuff, and fingering up your Wii games, and.... forgive me I digress.
You see him coming up in the evening, you hit that button, and all the lights including the outside lights go off, and now he thinks everyone has retired for the evening, and he turns and goes back home.
Just one more useful thing that this system can do.
I have already made a new scenario for the living room MD, called, Lights Out, based on this auto generated scenario.
