Use of non Clipsal hardware

People reading this forum should be aware that Clipsal will only support their own interface hardware attached to C-Bus.

Interface Hardware is defined as devices that directly connect to the physical C-Bus wiring. Devices that connnect via a PCI or CNI are not considered interface hardware and therefore not the subject of this announcement.

Clipsal encourage other equipment developers to join the C-Bus Enabled program. Members of this program gain access to:

• the full set of C-Bus protocol documents
• C-Bus interface hardware for incorporation into their own equipment; and
• a verification service to test and certify that the equipment meets C-Bus interface requirements.

Clipsal will provide limited support for equipment that has been through the C-Bus Enabled certification process.

Certified equipment is entitled to use the C-Bus Enabled logo.

More information can be found at cbus-enabled.com.

IMPORTANT:

• The use of non-Clipsal C-Bus interface hardware violates Clipsal patent rights.
• The use of non-Clipsal C-Bus interface hardware voids the warranty of ALL Clipsal devices attached to a network.
• The use of non-Clipsal C-Bus interface hardware may compromise electrical safety standards
