C-Bus Mode
This mode allows the Colour Theme Controller to be connected to a C-Bus network via the C-Bus PC
Interface unit. The Colour Theme will respond to dimming, on & off commands on the C-Bus lighting
application network, using two consecutive group addresses (base address can be set via User
Configuration) as described in Table 3. This is achieved by placing a dummy 2 Channel Dimmer in the C-bus
network during commission at the corresponding address.
Note that the Colour Theme Controller configures the PC Interface at start up to repeat commands from
the network. As such if the PC interface loses power the Colour Theme Controller will also need to be
reset.
