	<p> On your mobile phone orbiter, the 1 button displays your lighting scenarios, and 2 button displays your climate scenarios. If you hold down the 1 or 2 button then you will toggle the follow me. When follow me is on, you'll see the big red F. and on a normal orbiter, such as a Web pad or PDA, you can choose the lighting or climate floor plan button, and you'll see a button that toggles between F and F with a cross. When it is an F, then follow me will be enabled for whoever is the currently active user on that orbiter. These orbiters are not automatically able to detect what part of the House you're in, and therefore follow me is not automatic. But if you change the room on the orbiter manually, by choosing the room but in, and you have follow me turned on, then it will still work. For example, on your PDA you can turn the lighting follow me on. Then choose a room, and you'll see the "default on" scenario is executed. Then select another room. You'll see the "default off" scenario is executed in the first room, and "default on" scenario is executed in the new room. </p>

	~~<p>~~ The orbiter plug-in has the responsibility for firing the follow me events. There are five follow me events: lighting, climate, media, telecom, and security. There are five plug-ins corresponding to those five types of events. Follow me is just one of the things that those plug-ins do. For example the media plug-in also handles starting stopping and moving all media, and implementing the follow function is just one very small part. However since what triggers the follow me is an event, you can write an event interceptor for any DCE device so that you can add other code that gets executed when any of the follow me events are fired. </p>		The orbiter plug-in has the responsibility for firing the follow me events.
