Allows to create Scenes  to group different devices (alarm, lights, blinds, gates, garages, heating, HVAC) and set up simultaneous actions using the lock as a trigger or an actor.

The QuickApp connects Yale Home account, get list of registered locks and map them to Home Center devices – locks and door opening sensors. These devices can be used directly, to open/close a door, or can be used in scenes or profiles in the same way as all the other devices handled by the Home Center.
