Network Devices
The Network Devices section displays the devices physically connected to the C-Bus Network, provided a C-Bus Interface is connected to the C-Bus Network and the software is able to communicate to this interface.
The DALI devices will be displayed when a DALI line is selected, provided the C-Bus DALI- 2 Gateway is part of the C-Bus Network.
-
The C-Bus Network must be opened and scanned to display the C-Bus Devices on the Network.
-
The DALI line must be scanned to display the DALI devices on the selected DALI line (DALI-2 Gateway must be reconciled before scanning the DALI line).
