RE: Introductory Message

["Mike Griffiths" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just out of interest Mark

Have you programmed a PAC?

Have you programmed using Version 3 Homegate?

Have you programmed the old Black and White touch screen?

Have you programmed the new Colour touch screen?

Have you looked into Serial control from Cbus?

Have you looked at socket control from Cbus?



Do you have any connection with Flexidim



A straight Yes or No will do



Thanks

Mike

They've extended in terms of the reach of their range. They haven't
really changed the core functionality.

I said that there'd been lots of new switchgear, of various types.

OK, it was easier to use, but it didn't fix the scene issues I was
after.

That I'll grant you.

Again, an audio range is not exactly part of a lighting solution :-)

Does it have the same range of stuff as CBus - no
Does it have the same marketing clout in Europe as Schneider - no

Does it do the core lighting functions (IME) better - yes
Is it easier (IME) to integrate - yes


As I said, I've installed both, and Flexidim is what I'm going for in my
own house.

I realise that there are many, many, happy CBus users out there. I just
happen to think that Flexidim is a better product for lighting control.
