Button Remote

A button remote sends events rather than switching a load directly. Each button, long press, or scroll maps to its own action, so one remote can control several lights, a scene, or a media player. Home Assistant receives the events and runs whatever recipe the installer binds to them.

How Selora AI uses button remotes

• Lighting control such as dimming a room or stepping through scenes from a handheld or wall-mounted remote.
• Scene recall that runs a full routine across lights, shades, and climate from a single button.
• Media and override control that lets occupants adjust playback or pause an automation without an app.

Why button remotes matter for installers

A remote puts direct, tactile control in the room. Even in a fully automated home, people trust a physical controller they can pick up and press for something the automation did not anticipate, and it installs anywhere with no wiring.
