    Comfort, the Intelligent Home Systems (http://www.cytech.biz)  is an integrated Security/Home Automation system with extensive interfaces to many external lighting and other 4rd party systems including EIB. C-Bus, Dynalite, Ulti, Lutron, and Rako
    The Comfort system can be interfaced to the EIB (European Installation Bus) or Instabus system manufactured by Siemens, ABB, Jung, Gira and others using the UCM/EIB module which interfaces to the EIB Bus wire. This allows Comfort to talk to the EIB via Group Address. Comfort can act as a controller for the EIB system, providing the following benefits to a EIB system:


  • telecontrol using any telephone inside or outside the premises to control and monitor the status of devices on the EIB. The UCM/GSM allows SMS messages to control EIB devices.
  • allows control from Comfort’s keypads.
  • allows control by Comfort Time Programs.
  • allows Comfort’s Webserver Module (CWM) to provide Internet access to control and monitor EIB devices.
  • allows alarm inputs and alarm conditions to be closely linked to EIB for true integration of alarm and lighting.
  • allows EIB switches to trigger Comfort Responses, allowing control of non-EIB appliances like air-conditioners, X10 devices, home entertainment systems, and linking to all of Comfort’s security and control functions.
  • allows EIB switches and inputs (e.g... temperature, light sensors) to trigger alarms to dial-out to programmed telephones when preset levels are exceeded.
  • functions as a central controller for an EIB network. EIB is a distributed control 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 coordinate 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 an EIB system using Group address linkage alone.
