    hi all a little dumb question pls..

    what is the maximun ability PACA can support.. i mean how many scenes, grouping and etc.. and what is maximun unit in a network..


    the second is, can the c-touch colour or other key input unit cotrol the unit from other network, toggle on/of, scene, and etc.. like example the key input or c touch colour in network 1 and want to control a scene from network 2..
    this to network are connected by a network bridge??? if can, how many network can it supported by 1 c- touch or maybe monochrome touch screen??

    Thanks PSC, i'm trying to design a system with more than 50 Network, use in a condominium. each story using one c- bus network, there is 50th story. later they all link together.

    actually i'm not very sure it can work smoothly or not. there is also a lighting in stage that we are connected it to a DMX module.

    it's my first time to design such of this huge network. hope later if i get stuck can get help from all you guys again..

    thanks.

    Schedule Plus would be a better solution for such a large project -

    Maximum number of Pages : 250
    Maximum number of Components per Page : 500
    Maximum number of Schedules : 500
    Maximum number of Scenes : 500
    Maximum number of Components per Scene : 500
    Maximum number of Users : 200
    Maximum password length : 12
    Maximum number of Access Levels : 50
    Maximum number of Irrigation Programs : 20
    Maximum number of Irrigation Zones : 100
    Maximum number of Master Loads : 5
    Maximum number of Special Days : 500
    Maximum number of System I/O variables : 500
    Maximum number of logic timers : 200
    Maximum number of logic Modules : 200
    Maximum number of logic ConditionStaysTrue : 250
    Maximum number of Networks : determined by C-Gate license
    Minimum C-Gate version : V2.6, build 2207

    I would also strongly suggest you use a CNI on each network (floor), and link the CNIs to SchedulePlus using ethernet.

    It is important to have a high bandwidth backbone / interconnect to link to each C-Bus network, that way performance overall will be optimal.

    If you are attempting something this big for the first time, I would suggest having a chat with our helpful Technical Support people. It is important that you get the network architecture correct, and a bit of planning now could save a lot of hassles later on.
