    Can a 5500AC2 do everything that a Wiser2 can do?
    I have a few bits of code on the Wiser2, one of them being it
    If the Shower light/fan is turned on via the wall plate
    Then turn on the Spa fan/light for 22 minutes.

    If the Shower fan/light is turned off via the wall plate
    Then turn off the Spa fan/light.

    The main omission in 5500AC2 (to me anyway!) is the lack of the HVAC application. This is really only relevant if you use the now defunct cbus thermostats. Aside from that you are unlikely to find anything in the Wiser logic that can't be done in the 5500AC2 (and the 5500AC2 can do things the Wiser can't). There is a significant learning curve as the 5500AC2 is programmed in Lua (yuk) rather than Pascal, and it doesn't have any wizards that made Wiser logic programming easy for many users.

    Certainly the code you listed is no problem for the 5500AC2.
