Hi Phil,

=20

What I meant was something that would maybe walk me through how to create
a=
n example configuration.=20

=20

The Helvar =91Digidim Toolbox=92 has a tutorial in its help file which
allo=
ws you to build your network and then has the ability to show inputs and
ou=
tputs in an emulation mode so you can see how each of the switches /
lights=
react to more complicated settings.=20

=20

When I load CBus Toolkit all the =91help=92 options are greyed out except =
=91about=92. This is version 1.2.1 (build 192)

=20

When I add units to a project they appear to be accepted but do not show
up=
in the application. To me it seems to need to verify the unit exists on th=
e network before you can move forward?

=20

I wanted to experiment using a system made up of Bus Couplers, Dimming
unit=
s and Analogue Outputs. I wanted to see if I would be limited in
functional=
ity because I was using Bus Couplers rather than a =91More Inteligent=92
sw=
itch?

=20

TIA

Not quite sure what you mean by an "overview of C-Bus Toolkit"...

...it's the programming software for C-Bus.

Emulating what exactly?

You can program C-Bus "offline" (without it connected to a
network) but it'=
s
not posible to emulate anything with it.
