    Hi Everybody,
    I have been playing with C-Bus Toolkit on my office PC. I also have C-Touch and HomeGate on this machine.
    My HomeGate "talks" to C-Bus though a C-Gate server (v1.5.3) on another PC.
    Now, following the Tamika launch last week in Adelaide, I bought a C-Bus Wireless remote and dimmer adapter. PLUS, I have also bought a C-Bus Wireless Gateway. Using Toolkit, I have set up the gateway and can see the wireless side of the gateway as well as the dimmer. All very good!
    After exporting the project (now with two networks!) to V2 so I can use HomeGate to control my new wireless plug dimmer, I find that I can no longer use the C-Gate method of connecting to my C-Bus network! I presume this is due to the "free" version of C-Gate being limited to a one network licence.
    Is there anyway around this? Being able to connect to C-Gate was an elegant solution, until multiple networks are involved.
    Suggestions/Comments??
    Regards,
    Michael.

    Soon the "free" version of CGate will be extended so that you can access 1 Wired Network + 1 Wireless Network.
