Fw: Re: My first CBUS question...

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Comfort to CBUS and back again - instant ! The bonus is the Comfort module
can set the clock on the CBUS network - so after a power down/cut, within
5 mins the clocks on the DLT's are back.

I'm planning on adding some logic so instead of a cbus switch directly
controlling a dimmer channel, comfort picks up the signal, and then sets
the cbus dimmer as needed. ie if it's night time, then a single press will
only set the light to 50% automatically - no holding the button down or
scene setting. Then during the day, pressing the same button in the same
way sets the light to 100%

Or something like this !

Exactly what I am doing - waiting for the delivery from Comfort as I
write!  Can't comment on speed yet, but know that the Comfort to C-
Bus bit is pretty instantaneous - it will depend how quickly Comfort
responds to the incoming IR.

Learning remote - I have used a Pronto and am in the process of
[manually] copying the IR codes from an old version of Pronto Edit
to the new one.  There is a thread on the Comfort Technical forum
which covers that.
