    In the new CBUS dimmer under properties there is a list tick box in each channel for remote on and remote off.
    Can someone please tell me how this is used - what happens if I untick the boxes?
    There is no group associated with it just the tick box ?

    One assumes this has to do with remote on and off from the rj45 jack on the c-bus network jack.
    I cannot test ATM but this feature is irrelevant of group address assigned to the channels as a negative to pins 1/2 or pins 7/8 will trigger a remote on or off of the output channels, on the original Din units this is what the remote on off was referring to. From what you explain it looks like you can now control per channel this feature

    Ah yes Ok make sense what you say.

    I never liked this feature having a hard wired function that switches everything off/on.

    With all that processing power surely a function program all channels on/off would make far more sense

    HOWEVER if they cannot even get their act together to sort out SpaceLogic programing CBUS systems then this is a request that is neve going to materialise!

    Thanks

    well in the original units that what the area address did - it appears that feature has been omitted in the new spacelogic devices. supposedly by year end the new SLC software should alleviate these issues of different software.

    YEAR END !!!!
    Which year ?

    Its just not god enough to piss people about like this......

    Schneider need to make it known that SCL should NOT currently be used with old CBUS installations.
    Which of course means that the new dimmers should NOT currently be installed in old installations.
