Theres a cap on the amount of radio traffic, Yes, of course. The number of wireless slots left free to communicate is returned from the cube in response to some commands. You can monitor it in order to keep the traffic low. However this should not affect the L-command, because that must not cause any additional wireless traffic. > And theres 20 devices in the house. I know from other users that the traffic gets quickly chocked if the application tries to control the thermostats manually. E.g. by sending the set temperature to all thermostats each second, instead of programming them to run in the automatic mode. Also the MAX! home automation tries to get the measured temperatures from the radiator thermostats. This involves wireless traffic and some commands to "massage" the thermostats, because they do not send the measured temperature on their own. You may look into this too, e.g. to increase the timeouts when a temperature measurement is counted "obsolete" or to turn this out completely. > Thanks again for your input Dmitri! You are always helpful. You are welcome. -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
