Here are some tips from the altE staff
- The CM has (or had, we are not sure that it still has) a sticker that indicates C40. This is irrelevant. The CM will work on the C35, C40 or C60.
Looks like a schneider
Not long lasting. My second one has failed in as many years. Looking for an alternate product

I'd buy it again!
Works as promised and the handbook makes installation easy even for a novice like myself.
