    New C-Bus User with considerable control experience

    I would like to use one toggle button on a Saturn switch to turn a fan on with one push and have a second push of the switch start a two minute timer and then the fan will turn off.

    Do I need to install and delay timer after the C-Bus Relay Module or is there a way of doing this in the C-Bus programming?

    Look forward to your assistance as this appears like a simple problem but I can't work out how to do it in C-Bus!

    You should be able to use the key functions and blocks tab to get the desired function.. But would require a bit of playing to actually get it to work..

    Alternatively use the logic engine/.

    Try this, go to the key functions and put in the following:

    Short press: idle
    Short release: toggle
    Long press: on key
    Long release: retrigger

    Then set in Blocks the timer1 for your key to 2mins.

    Hope that helps.

    Brilliant & Simple

    This solution is brilliant, simple and actually provides more flexibility where the fan can be turned straight off or left to delay off
    Thanks heaps:):):)
