You don't need to think of HLC rooms as physical rooms. They are more like functional groups.
For instance I have all of my house fans in one room.
The First 2 links for the room turn them all on or all off.
Scene A Turns on only the Master Bath fans
Scene B Turns on only the Guest Bath fan
Scene C Turns on only the Powder Room fan
Scene D Turns on only the Laundry Room fan
I simply do not add the non-relevant scenes to the other units in UPStart.
So the Controller, or UPB switch, may send Scene A, but only two units are programmed to recognize it.
Similarly, I have my 3 spare bedrooms on one room so I can turn them all off with a single scene, or turn each on and off individually with their own scene. The HLC command for a scene sends an activate, but you can send a UPB deactivate command on the same link to turn the units off.
I also have some switches in one room react to scenes in another room. This way I have whole house scenes without using up the few links set aside for custom programming.
