RE: Multiple CBUS interfaces on one PC?

["Paul Gordon" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Indeed... I'm aware that while doing PCI duties, the PAC isn't
actually
a PAC any more... So I had considered dedicating the PAC to it's
intended automation functions and using the PCI for CBUS toolkit
functions. - That's a bit of a waste though, since I only need to use
toolkit to change my CBUS config *very* infrequently... - hardly a big
deal to stop the PAC processing for 5 minutes 2 or 3 times a year to
make the occasional changes I need... - especially when I could sell on
the PAC for enough to conver the cost of the next CBUS unit I require...
