    I have a curly one here where a schedule in SchedulePlus and a Switch are competing on setting a zone.

    See the log entry for unit 15

    5/15/2014 8:00:08 AM C-Bus Rx : Set zone F-1 Off (unit 15)

    Unit 15 (switch) is overriding the schedule, which then means that I have to go and manually set the zone. This a random occurrence as in which day, but seems to only happen in the mornings to this zone/switch. I don't believe that some one is pushing the switch at the same time as the schedule starting.

    Thanks,
    Rob.

    I was starting to think that by some chance that someone was fluking the switch at the same time as the schedule until this morning. no one was in the building and it happened again...

    unit 15 is the switch...

    this obviously has everyone else stumped as 70 odd views and no comments

    If it was me I would remove the switch from the system and see if that alleviates the issue..

    Is this the same site and issue you reported back in 2011?

    If so you have not followed the advice and disabled the switches prior to the schedule kicking in. There is a good chance this is what is causing the headache.. I would reset the switch back to default (remove possibility of block assignment issue) and reprogram from scratch, set the switch disable schedule to happen 30 seconds prior to the schedule scene.. See if that helps..

    Cheers.

    Thanks Roosta,

    Yes same site, and I had forgotten that it had the same issue back in 2011, which I had set it to dissable switches earlier, the site got some one else to do some changes while I was unavailable it looks like they changed it back or used a previous back up of the project and overwrote my changes....

    Thanks.
