    A scene does not have the native capacities for delays between C-Bus commands. Assuming the 4 rows of lights are connected to 4 different dimmer channels (and assigned 4 unique group addresses) the best you could achieve would be for a scene to turn off the first row instantly, the second row could ramp down at a 4 second rate, the 3rd row could ramp down at an 8 second rate, the last row at a 12 second rate. This might be close enough for your client.

    If you need to do something more specific you'll need a device that includes the Logic Engine (C-Touch, Wiser, etc).
