    Hi Guys,

    The pic on Page 11 of the C-Bus Hardware Installation manual shows the top dimmer unit as only having an Active supply feed but the second dimmer unit has both Active and Neutral feeds....http://web.aanet.com.au/stets/dimmer pic.jpg

    Is there a particular reason for this?

    Good find! Looks like an oversight to me.

    The dimmer at the top should have a neutral connection. It would still function, however it would not be EMC compliant.

    Note that this connection is NOT optional!

    I've passed this on to the appropriate people.

    Thanks.
