Hi

Been configuring my comfort velbus system over the last few days and one thing I notice is that when I restart comfort (eg after a down load) it does not update itself with the status of velbus modules!

For example if kitchen light is turned on, and comfor is restarted, then I connect via iPhone app, the kitchen light is shown as off!

Is this normal or am I missing something ?

Thanks
Eamon

When you reset Comfort, counters and  sensors are reset to 0, they previous values are not saved hence the Velbus module status  kept in Counters will be zero or off
I do not believe that Velbus has a means of sending current status so the status is updated only when the velbus modules change

Hi ident

Does this still happen with Velbus ver 7?

I thought this was odd when I noticed it happening first, but based on idebts explanation it makes sense, but is not really a problem as it\'s rare that comfort is restarted and even then it does not take long for it to eventually catch and it still doesn\'t present any difficulties when running macros etc for me.

Yes it will stioll happen with UCM/Velbus v7
