The Comfort system supports integration to Z-Wave devices via the UCM/Z-Wave3 module. The UCM/Z-Wave3 provides a two way connection to the Z-Wave network, enabling control of Z-Wave devices, providing the following benefits:
- telecontrol and status monitoring through any telephone inside or outside the premises to control devices on the Z-Wave Network
- allows control from Comfort's keypads.
- allows control by Time Programs.
- allows alarm inputs and alarm conditions to be linked to Z-Wave switches for integration of alarm and lighting.
- Allows Z-wave Switches and remote controls to control Comfort by mapping to Counters, Sensors, Outputs, Responses, Virtual Inputs, Arm Security, Panic (New to UCM/Zwave3).
- Allows Z-wave sensors (Sensor Class) to update Comfort Sensors and trigger Responses
The UCM/Zwave is a two-way interface i.e. it allows Comfort to send commands to the Zwave network,(up to 232 addresses), and also gets feedback on the state of Z-wave devices it controls and is able to associate with buttons on the Z-Wave remote control and other controllers. The UCM/Zwave3 is the 3rd generation of Comfort's Z-wave interface.
