    I have a site where for historical reasons each network uses a different application number. I know this has never been correct or supported but it's worked and we've left well alone as changing it will be quite a big deal.

    We don't yet have any new Spacelogic devices on this site but that time will come, and the note in TK's settings that "if you have units using inappropriate addresses your C-Bus network may behave in an unexpected matter when using newer C-Bus units" is therefore a concern.

    What are the potential issues? The network numbers are all at the high end (~240 upwards) so would need the legacy option ticked in order to work with them.

    provided your application addresses are in the lighting range for the new output units i would be surprised if there would be any issues.
    As for your network addresses those that you have used should also be valid, unless SE have seriously changed the way C-Bus operates
