Re: Comfort System c-bus

["Scott Goodwin" <scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rob, Dean

Thanks for the replies, how does the cbus system work?

Does it supply 12v to the lights, what will i need to buy to set up
follow-me spots upstairs and in hall etc..

Also is there a rule of thumb for number of spots in a given space etc..

Sorry to ask such basic questions, but i am very new to the scene.

I have recently built a media pc, can this be controlled via the comfort ir
outputs and then pronto??

Thanks for your help

Scott
