Overview

This is the first screen you see when opening the Innerscene Studio app. It scans for nearby Circadian Sky fixtures via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and displays them as a list.

Each device in the list shows its name, wireless group number (as a colored circle), firmware version, signal strength bars, and a live status line with current brightness, CCT, and active control source. Devices marked with a crown icon are primaries in their wireless group.

Tap any device to connect. If the device has a password set, you will be prompted to authenticate. Once connected, the app navigates to the Home screen where you can control the fixture.

The "Scan for Devices" button starts a fresh 10-second scan. Devices you have connected to before appear immediately with a "(me)" label. The Legacy WiFi Upgrade link at the bottom is for devices running older firmware that does not support Bluetooth connections.
