    Hey guys


    Is the cbus power supply supposed to report the extra available power on the network? I added one and the network is still not showing the power supply as available in cbus toolkit?

    I have two relays with 200ma power supplies and a 350ma power supplies I added. When I look at the network info it says 400ma available

    The strange thing is if i remove one of the 200ma relays it still says 400 available. Sounds like it only reports a max of 400ma

    Am I missing something?


    Cheers
    Stew

    The power supply does not show up in the network scan. You can add it to the database manually.

    The toolkit power consumption is calculated based on the units in your database (offline), not what is currently live on your network..

    Personally I have never used it, call me old school but I still prefer manual calculating it all up..

    I you wish to see your 5500PS in the calculation add it to your data base using the add unit function..
