Philips Hue Dimmer Switch 2021
We have 6 Philips Hue lamps at home and all of them are connected to the bridge. Is it possible to control any of the lamps individually with the remote control (e.g. targeting and dimming a lamp)?

With the Philips Hue dimmer switch and a connected Hue Bridge, you can control different lamps and lamp groups, but the individual and precise control of individual lamps with the remote control alone is not as flexible as you might expect.
- You can use the dimmer switch to switch groups of lamps or scenes on and off and dim them, but direct, individual control of each lamp without prior grouping or scene setting in the Hue app is not possible.
- You can create rooms or zones in the Hue app and control them with the remote control, but it is not possible to directly target and dim a specific lamp without prior configuration in the app.
To control individual lamps separately, you must group them accordingly in the Hue app or create scenes and then control these groups or scenes with the dimmer switch.
