    Post getting an electrician to install C-Bus, what's the minimum post install requirements in terms of hardware software for (a) reprogramming any switches, (b) setting up schedules, (c) setting up any scenes/triggers?

    Thinking I would get a Wiser 2 as part of the install but was wondering what else is needed beyond that - keen not to have to call out an electrician every time a change is made. I'm fairly comfortable with the technical learning curve, more a function of what exactly I need to ensure is installed/purchase at install time.

    Being able to make changes yourself would be a good thing to talk to your installer about.
    I think you have a lot to gain by working in conjunction with the installer.

    Clipsal software downloads are here http://www2.clipsal.com/cis/technical/downloads
    CBus Toolkit is what you use to program the CBus devices.
    Piced software is what you use to program the Wiser.
    Wiser has a built in CNI CBus interface so you would really have everything you need to get in and make changes.

    If there was any other device which I would recommend it is an additional stand alone CNI CBus interface since the Wiser CNI is normally used by the Wiser.
    That would also be something to discuss with the installer.

    Is that still the case with the Wiser2?
