I'm afraid I've given you bad information, you do not need multiple models/elements!

Your light bulbs(OnOff servers) can subscribe to multiple addresses. This means that you need to configure Light 1 and 2 to subscribe to address 0xC001 and 0xC003, and Light 3 and 4 address 0xC002 and 0xC003.

The master switch(OnOff Client), that you want to control both groups with must be configured to publish to address 0xC003.

Sorry for the misinformation :/

Sry for the late reply.

You need to create new elements in each device, the new elements will be a copy of the old ones, Create a new group address for the new elements and subscribe/publish to it.

Yes, exactly. I ment to say "Create a new group address that all OnOff servers subscribe to."

Create a new group address that all OnOff server subscribe to.The OnOff client send message to this group(the message destination address was the new group address).

Go with the first option.
Create a new group address that all OnOff clients subscribe to. I believe that is what you describe in:

"Adds 0xC003 to light_1&light_2&light_3&light_4 OnOff Server Model subscription address,Equivalent to Create a adderss=0xC003 of group C.The button sending message to destination address=0xC003?"
