How do i integrate Cbus with 3rd party

i am doing lighting automation in a residence and want to integrate the same with a 3rd part processor which uses serial protocol. How do i convert the lighting scene codes to RS232 codes

 

You really need to be reading this document first and using it as your guide. http://training.clipsal.com/downloads/OpenCBus/C-Bus Quick Start Guide.pdf

What's the software your using? I've gone through this process of integration using iRule as my primary software.

 

C-Bus Interface

Hi,
I'd like to interface to C-bus gear also but not through any of the PC interfaces. I need to find out more about the hardware interfacing of which there is little information. Companies such as Ness and Inner Range have direct interfaces.
Cheers,
Paul

 

3rd party providers use the 5000SM/2 interface module which is now freely available. It is a 9600 baud 5v serial link using the Cbus serial command protocol documents. The protocol documents are available on the clipsal cis web site. This is the only way to connect directly to the Cbus bus. The serial PC inteface is just this module with RS232 drivers.
