Actions and action sets

- [Voiceover] Action sets, which are also referred…to as scenes, allow users to group several actions together…into a single action set.…For example, you might create an action set…that turns off a group of lights,…lowers the temperature, and locks the door.…You might create another that turns on the lights,…unlocks the door, and raises the temperature.…By creating these action sets, the user has an easier time…controlling multiple accessories in the home at once.…By default, there are four action sets.…They are Good Morning, I'm Leaving,…I'm Home, and Good Night.…

But you can also create custom action sets.…To create an action set, you'll use…the addActionSetWithName method on the Home object,…and you'll pass in a unique name for the action set.…With the action set created,…you can then use HMCharacteristicWriteAction…to create your actions.…Simply pass in the characteristic you want to adjust,…and then the target value for that adjustment.…Once you have the action created,…use the addAction method of the action set…
