Unhappy Rako Lighting Issue

Hi - can someone help me with the following setup issue:

my setup is 2 switching Rako units and 1 Dimmerable unit in the same room. I would like to switch each on off using 1 scene button on the remote but the issue I have is that the Dimmerable unit automatically sets different light settings (i.e dims lights) for each of the scene buttons on the remote.

I only want button 3 to turn on and button for 4 to dim by 50%. With button 1 and 2 switching on the other 2 switching units.

Is there an obvious issue I've missed here with the dimmer unit?

Also - how do I reset the RAKO units?

Thanks.

Re: Rako Lighting Issue

This isnt really how Rako is designed its designed for scenes so you need to MAP out your scenes

Scene 1: CH1-100% CH2 0% & CH3 0%
Scene 2: CH1-0% CH2 100% & CH3 0%
Scene 3: CH1-0% CH2 0% & CH3 100%
Scene 4: CH1-1% CH2 0% & CH3 50%

If you dont have the software then you need to RTFM to see how to change settings from keypad
