To save me taking all the plastic trim off (again !) to re-route the cables... does anyone know how you can swap the left and right lights over ? I did hear that the software allowed you to do it... but I've been through every option/drop down/tick box etc. and I can't find the bloody option... and the manual doesn't mention it either... TIA

If each light is on a channel just change the channels

Yeah... that would be way too easy... but I'm using the white channel, which is the clever Bus Channel... 3 cables out, control both lights (plus lots of other things potentially).
 
Read the mandbook, its all explained in there, but in all fairness, i thought it wasn't very clear , and it took me a couple of attempts

when looking at the outputs panel (i.e. red, blue, yellow, white outputs), there's an arrow to the right of the white output (which should be on ezBUS). Click the arrow, you'll see your left and right light, change the first one to the side it isn't (i.e. if it's currently left, change to right) and vice versa. Bob's your uncle!

Thanks for that XRR... I found it in the end. Defo not in the manual though... super easy to do, once you found that bloody arrow !

I'm a Johnny-come-lately with this, but I do feel I should mention that using ezBUS requires knowledge of a) what ezBUS is, b) how it works, and c) how to configure it.
All that info is given in the user manual, and also in pictographic/text and video form on the website.

If you connected multiple lights - or anything else - via the ezBUS circuit, you had to have known there was a chance they wouldn't work at all without going through the device recognition procedure (the ezBUS circuit identifies smart devices by reading individual device addresses). Why the trouble?

With all due repect

If you design and build a piece of software , hardware , you have intimate knowledge built up over years of development and testing

(at first it's not intuitive, seems awkward , if not back to front ), by the time the part / product its launched / introduced, your the guru's ,

you know the device/ product intimatly , and can rattle off settings , tweaks and chunks of specifications without going anywhere near the manuals or spec sheets

Imparting that knowlege (knack) to other people can be very difficult, what you think and see, is often litterally lost in translation

Just by reading your reply above , tells me your in a different world to the end user, both in terms of understanding of the product, and the demographic of who uses the product

For info,

the manual isn't very clear or intuitive, and i found the way to do it by accident / trial and error


There are also other areas where first / third party hardware changes parameters too which arnt documented , that makes for interesting times trying to sort that out
