Notes

A component can only be remote controlled if the page it is on is showing. To enable a Component

to be remote controlled regardless of which page is showing, place the Component on a Theme

Page and use that Theme Page for all pages in the project. This will ensure that the Component is

always available without having to copy it to every page.

You can use an invisible component to control something via IR if you don't want a whole lot of

components visible on each page.

1.3.1.3 Using Multiple C-Touch Units

Problem

What should be considered when installing more than one C-Touch unit on a Network ?

Solution

It is easiest if each of the C-Touch units has basically the same project in it, rather than creating

separate projects for each. To do this :

Create a project which allows you to control ALL of the installation, with a page for each room

where a C-Touch will be installed

For each C-Touch, change the time-out page to be the appropriate page for the room where it

will be installed

Only one C-Touch unit should execute the Scenes and Schedules, otherwise there will be

duplicate commands sent out. This can be controlled by selecting the Master Unit. See the main

help file Master Unit topic for more information.

Note that the page created for each room needs to have a component linking to the main menu (if

you have one) so that all pages of the project can be accessed.

Problem

Installing more than 2 or 3 C-Touch units on a network stops the network from operating.
