    Is it possible to have multiple light sensors, inside & out then have individual groups or scene ramp up or down ?
    Can it work with a PIR so when a group turns on by the PIR it will set the light level depending on the lumens the light sensor detected.

    I figure it can but before purchasing I want to confirm. :D


    Thanks

    Err, I'm not 100% clear exactly what your requirement is here. The Light Level Sensors have the ability to ramp up/down a group address to try and keep the light level at a nominal reading, maintaining a constant lux level in an area. Is that what you're after?
    Again, you'll need to be more specific. Some light level sensors light the Multisensor have the ability to broadcast the current light level onto C-Bus at regular intervals. You can then assign this level to a logic group of an output unit so that when the PIR turns on the channel, the level is limited by the measured light level.

    Is this close to what you're trying to do?
