Hi Mike - have you got the PAC to be able to read C-Bus temp sensors ?  - I
haven't tried it but I was reading this line in the PICED docs ..

4.15.16  GetUnitParameter Function.....

....returns the value of a C-Bus unit parameter. This is *not*
applicable for use with the Pascal Automation Controller

.. the parameter types are ..

1    ptTemperature   Temperature C or F  Temperature Sensor
2    ptLightLevel    LightLevel (Lux)    Light Level Sensor

Haven't got to far into this so maybe there's another way....
C-Bus sensors do not broadcast their current value on C-Bus, instead
they have to be interrogated for current value (to save bandwidth)
