About Clipsal C-Bus
Clipsal C-Bus uses a network of low voltage wires for communications between C-Bus lighting devices and also provides a small
amount of power to operate each C-Bus lighting devices in your home. Each switch or dimmer controls one lighting load in a
Clipsal C-Bus system. They are used in place of standard light switches and allow local control as well as remote control from
any of the Clipsal C-Bus keypads, an Omni IIe interface, or via programming in the Omni IIe controller.
Clipsal C-Bus Format
Omni IIe groups devices by “House Code”, which consists of 4 consecutive unit numbers, starting at Unit 1. Each “House Code”
can be configured to a different lighting protocol format such as: Standard X-10, Extended X-10, Lightolier Compose, UPB (open
UPB format where you can use the programming capability in the Omni IIe controller to communicate with the UPB network),
Lutron RadioRA, HAI Lighting Control (HLC), CentraLite, Vizia RF Z-Wave, or Clipsal C-Bus.
Each HAI lighting unit can be associated with a corresponding C-Bus lighting group. Omni IIe supports 64 C-Bus lighting
groups. HAI unit 1 corresponds to C-Bus lighting group address 1; HAI unit 2 corresponds to C-Bus lighting group address 2;
and so on. C-Bus group address 0 is not supported. C-Bus lighting groups can be turned on, turned off, brightened, dimmed, set
to a specific level, or toggled on/off. Omni IIe supports two-way integration with the Clipsal C-Bus lighting system. Individual
lighting groups can be directly controlled and lighting scenes can be triggered by the HAI controller. Omni IIe monitors C-Bus
lighting and can respond to changes.
