    Yes, how you do it depends on how much you want to spend

    Cheap way - Use a C-Bus 2 channel time clock ( http://www2.clipsal.com/cis/technical/product_groups/cbus/input_units/clock_module ) . Will given you time schedules but won't update for daylight saving etc.

    Next option will be to use a PAC. This will give you full shcedule control as well as updating for daylight savings, but you can't adjust the time without reprogramming it with a PC.

    Best option (and most expensive) would be to use a touch screen. This will give you all the features above aswell as allowing you to edit times and schedules from the screen and giving you another control point.

    Cheers

    Not quite true... he said he has a DLT. The time on C-Bus can be set using a DLT.

    The time setting interface on a DLT can be accessed by pressing and holding the page key for 10 seconds.

    The time set in this way will update the time in the PAC (and any other C-Bus devices that keep time).

    I was meaning the scheduled times for the lights to turn on/off not the current C-Bus time :)
    You can't adjust any schedules or timers without reprogramming the PAC
