By setting both your KT01 and C-Bus group addresses to the same, you will update the same counter in both cases, triggering the same counter response.

For example, when you attempt to dim the light via the button on the 4-key switch to say 25%, the following sequence will be triggered:

1. C-Bus lights (group address 1) dim to 25%
2. UCM/CBus updates counter 1 to 63
3. Counter response for counter 1 triggered
4. As your response states that when the last update is non-zero, the command C-Bus On 1 is sent
5. C-Bus lights (group address 1) switches on to 100%.

Hence to overcome that, you can set the KT01's group address to another and assign the counter response to the new counter used.

Is it what you mean,

if i want to trigger group 01 in c-bus

so i need to do same response (like last mail) and put in the counter 101

In KT01 i put group 101 to trigger same light

is it what you mean, i try it can't work, as a result the light can't on/off.

if it not wat you mean please explain more detail ?

Thank

Questions:

1. What do you mean can't on/off? Do you mean to say the status on KT01 is not updated, resulting in wrong control?

2. What response is set for counter 1? If you set the same response, you will still end up in the loop.
