C-Bus Wireless System Operation
Mode 5
Networked Mode in Combination with Category 5 Wired C-Bus Units
The C-Bus Wireless Gateway is used to link a C-Bus Wireless network to a C-Bus
Category 5 wired network. It is functionally equivalent to a C-Bus Network Bridge.
Using the Gateway, C-Bus Wireless and Category 5 networks can communicate
and interact with each other. Both Wireless and Category 5 networks use the same
command structure, and are 100% compatible.
Mode 3
Networked Mode
In this mode, a C-Bus Wireless Wall Plate acts as a dimmer or switch and multiple C-Bus
Wireless units can be linked to each other with the C-Bus Wireless technology. This
mode is simple to setup, and is suitable for more complex installations. In this mode,
local control buttons control the dimming or switch channel of the unit, and may also
control other C-Bus Wireless units. Free buttons can control the dimmer or switch
channels of other units via a C-Bus Wireless network established using Learn Mode
operations. The operation of buttons is set using Learn Mode operations or using the
C-Bus Toolkit Software.
Mode 4
Networked with Remote
In this mode, a C-Bus Wireless Wall Plate acts as a dimmer or switch and multiple
C-Bus Wireless units can be linked to each other with the C-Bus Wireless technology.
Local control buttons control the dimming or switch channel of the unit, and may
also control other C-Bus Wireless units. Free buttons can control the dimmer or switch
channels of other units via a C-Bus Wireless network established using Learn Mode
operations or C-Bus Toolkit software. Buttons on the Wireless Remote are linked to
Wall Plate and Plug Adaptor buttons as desired.
