Comfort UCM C-Bus Interface
[UCM/CBUS2] - Stock: 0

CE Approved
Current version CBus Firmware 2

The Comfort system can be interfaced to Clipsal's C-Bus. This allows Comfort to control and monitor any Group Address on the C-Bus by connecting the CBUS wires, without the C-Bus PC Interface. Comfort can act as a controller or gateway or the C-Bus system, providing the following benefits to a C-Bus system:

  • Tele-control through any telephone inside or outside the premises to control and monitor the status of devices on the C-Bus
  • Able to send any C-Bus command, activated by Comfort's keypads, Time Programs, Comfort iPhone app, telephone or any Comfort event
  • Allows alarm inputs and alarm conditions to be linked to C-Bus for true integration of alarm and lighting.
  • Allows C-Bus switches to trigger Comfort Responses, allowing control of non C-Bus appliances like air-conditioners, home entertainment systems, and linking to all of Comfort's security and control functions.
  • Allows C-Bus switches and inputs (e.g. temperature, light sensors) to trigger alarms to dial-out to programmed telephones when preset levels are exceeded.
  • The C-Touch Mk2 touchscreen can be used as a keypad for Comfort, and can display zone and alarm status.
  • Acts as a gateway to other systems e.g. Honeywell Smartfit heating controller, X10 Power Line Interface, Comfort Webserver etc..
  • Functions as a central controller for C-Bus. C-Bus is a distributed system with each device having its own intelligence and able to respond according to its own device type and the way it is programmed. In an intelligent home or office environment, it can be desirable to have a controller which is able to co-ordinate the functions of all the subsystems including security, lighting, HVAC, and others. Comfort is able to take action based on conditional logic, for example, when the time is between 7 PM and 7 AM and the security system is armed, and when the front door is opened, turn on the hall lights for 3 minutes. This would not be possible with C-Bus using Group address linkage alone.
  • UCM/CBUS 5.216 and above is able to send Label commands to DLT (Dynamic Labelling Technology) switches to dynamically change the text on the LCD

Cytech Technology is a CBus Enabled Partner, and Comfort is a certified C-Bus Enabled product.
