Soft Start Modules Won't Dim with CM15A

[Noam]

I'm glad it worked for you.
As long as your timers and macros are all set to run from the interface, it should work fine with the CM15A disconnected from the computer.

The older (non-SoftStart) modules were designed to come on at 100% brightness, but also couldn't dim directly to specific levels. Everything was relative (20% lower than whatever the current level is, etc). So, in order to be sure they got to a specific level, they had to go back to 100% first.
