    The C-Touch frequently asked questions guide states...

    ...only one C-Touch unit should execute the Schedules and Irrigation control,otherwise there will be duplicate commands sent out
    ...only one C-Touch should execute the Scenes,the others should just trigger them. If more than one C-Touch is set up to execute Scenes then triggering a Scene will cause each C-Touch to set the same Scene,which will cause a lot of unnecessary C-Bus traffic.

    How do you stop the secondary c-touch from executing schedules and scenes???

    Read the help file section titled Master Unit.

    In a nutshell, you can load the same project onto multiple units and, by only setting the Master Unit flag on one of the units, the result will be that Scenes, Schedules, Irrigation Control and Logic will only be executed on the unit that is the Master.

    This saves the need to create new projects for all the other touchscreens on the network with the Scenes, Schedules, Irrigation Control and Logic manually stripped out.
