UCM/Cbus

[palmlodge]

Had this many more times over the weekend - but not in a position to get to comfigurator

As i rely heavily on this, I may have to just downgrade with no resolution in sight

[slychiu]

Yes you should do
we are still testing possible solutions

OK An Update

I managed to get Comfigurator up and running - and I can SEND commands to CBUS OK (I did an Execute response which a CBUS button was mapped to, but Comfort is not RECEIVING commands.

I had to reset the CBUS UCM for things to start working again.

That is the same as reported by Ingo The SIM Module seems to have changed its operating mode somehow.
We are still studying possible solutions

[Ingo]

Correct. Mine just doesn\'t do it that often...

[Ingo]

And there goes mine as well... Commands from Comfort (Outgoing CBus commands) can get through to the Cbus network but Cbus changes does not get through to Comfort.

Let\'s see if we can correlate our H/W, I am running the following setup:

Comfort II with firmware 6.005
UCM/Cbus, ST7 SIM, with 5.216 (SW8 A&B shorted)
64 Zone (3 Slaves) with firmware 6.004
1 x RIO with firmware 2.007
2 x Keypads (KP04\'s)
1 x Doorstation
1 x UCM/Ethernet with firmware 6.008
1 x UCM/GSM with firmware 6.005

I had to do a UCM/Cbus reset this morning to get things going again.

Thanks for that vote of confidence!

No thanks. I will only use the official tools.

Try ComfortClient and setup an object to send a Cbus command.

I only use Cytech tools - there is no benefit to me of using 3rd party tools and neither would Cytech support it.

I\'ll never use a PC to control my HA system - they will never be reliable for this application.

Hopefully this will solve the problem

See Cbus 6.010 attached. This will set the correct modes to Cbus every 60 seconds due to the SIM being changed by itself to other modes. It will not affect other settings and has other internal improvements. This has been tested here but as we have not been able to duplicate your problems only you can tell us if it works for you. Please install and let me know the results

Thanks Guys, I will install it tonight. I forgot I was back on 5.x firmware so can\'t do it on-the-fly...

Let the wait begin....
