Spacelogic and toolkit compatibility

[Ande-Ee]

We have many old CBUS installations

We have been waiting years for Dimmers that handle LED loads

We have added new (CBUS) dimmer modules to existing CBUS installations.

I have had to use a MIXTURE of Spacelogic and Toolkit software to program the system

THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE

WHEN IS THE NEXT VERSION OF SPACELOGIC THAT ADDRESSES THE BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY OF CBUS ITEMS.

Either it is back wards compatible or it is not

Buggering around with two pieces of software to commission a lighting dimmer in my book does not constitute an acceptable option.

CURRENTLY THEN SPACELOGIC SOFTWARE IS NOT BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE

Hi Ande, we work on existing systems every day. whilst very inconvenient and , at times, frustrating, the SLCC software is definitely getting better. I will leave others to comment on the timeline but, i attended the recent Innovation summit in Sydney Australia and from my reading its going to take another couple of years to fully move to SLCC. I have it on good authority that the next device off the line is the eDLT.

Hi Ande,

I agree with Marty.

The Schneider guys can give you a comprehensive answer on this, however, this is a transition to a completely new platform. Yes it is a pain at times and the process to roll over products to spacelogic is really slow, but it's just the way it is.

There are a lot of integrators that use this daily (including us), and having a huge rant on a forum really isn't going to help.

Well said
