Re: cbus dimmer issues

["Frank Mc Alinden" <frankmc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ben

Seem,s strange you have several channels (zones) go bad at  the same
time....Are all the suspect channels on the same Dimmer module ???....If so
its possible a loose connection(s) may be causing issues...Also check the
programming on the switches and channels in case they have
changed....Havent
use it myself but maybe also run the cbus diagnostics app to see what
messages are being sent...
