So to close this topic, anyone else that is thinking about compatibility with this 93999 Controller, don‘t bother. The reach of C-8 pro gets to the individual Zigbee Plug&Shine lights/Spots and therefore this controller is obsolete. I now have more control over the lights than with this Paulman-Controller since that device is switching a group and not the individual Spots.
Also one hint, if you are using Home Assistant in parallel create a Script with the reset sequence for those Paulman devices, plug them into a smart plug and run it.
Manually resetting them 5 times in a row and getting the timing right will drive you mad.
