Direct Answer: C-Bus Ethernet Interface (5500CN) — Surge / Storm Damage

Surge or storm damage often blows the delicate RS485 communication transceivers on the network. This causes the entire lighting network to drop offline and become unresponsive.

Step-by-Step Diagnostic Steps

Check the network burden and clock LED indicators.
If no LEDs are illuminated across multiple devices, the network power is dead.
Use a multimeter to check the network voltage; if it's 0V, the power supply or transceivers are fried.
Disconnect modules one by one to find the shorted device bringing the network down.
Replace damaged components and install surge protection devices.
