The Ness C-Bus Interface Module interfaces the Ness M1G and M1EZ8 to the Clipsal C-Bus networks. The Interface connects to the M1 via "PORT 0" (RS232 port) on the M1 panel, (or EZ8 / EZ24 panel) and includes a second RS232 port for connection of M1 Ethernet modules if required.
The 101-236 interface allows for 2 way communications in that it not only sends C-Bus commands to C-Bus but also will listen and respond to C-Bus light changes.
Connection to the C-Bus network is done via the "Clipsal SIM" module onboard the interface and no other interface such as a C-Bus PCI is required.
The interface is a true plug and play interface with virtually no programming required to make it work. All lighting programming is done within the M1 via NessRP. The light No's 1-255 correspond to C-Bus Group addresses 1-255.
