Re: Re: cbus Wiser appears to be in UK stockist



Thanks for the explanation.

I currently have a CNI that is used for programming. Looks like I could
simply replace the CNI with Wiser. I would gain functionality and could
still programme the system in the same way.

Just a small question - Are the standalone CNI and CNI included with Wiser
the same under the skin or are there any differences?

Regards
Ben
