The Comfort Scene Control Switch is a multipurpose electronic switch with either 4, 6 or 8 buttons, each with its own LED indicator. They consist of a central switch panel and a frame, each of which is available in several styles and colours. Dual-gang and triple gang frames are available. A matching range of conventional electrical and light switches are also available so that all the switches in the home can have a common look
Each button activates a Comfort Response which can send X10 signals through the power line, or infrared signals to home entertainment equipment and airconditioners, activate comfort outputs in pulsed or latched modes, dim external lighting systems or perform any combination of functions programmable in Comfort, for example, arm the security system into Night mode and turn off the downstairs lights, close the garage door and turn on external lights.
The corresponding LED indicator can be programmed to indicate status of an appliance, light or scene. For lighting indication for example, the LED can be programmed to be ON when the light in the room is off, to help to locate the switch in the dark
The SCS is connected to Comfort via a CAT 5 cable (two twisted pairs is required in the cable with the other pairs being spare)
SCS panels come in Aluminium, Anthracite (black), White with 4 or 8 buttons, and Esprit (with 6 buttons)
Frames also come in styles Standard, E2, and Event. Standard and E2 are squarish while Event is curved (convex). Colours include Aluminimum, Anthracite and white. The Esprit frame is special, being made of glass.
Any frame can fit into any SCS panel. Hence Esprit Frame and panel match well together but they can also fit other panels and frames
The new Esprit SCS with Glass frame is shown here. This is the only one with 6 buttons, while the others have 4 or 8 buttons
The new Scene control switches have built-in Temperature sensors. The temperature values are held in Sensor Registers in Comfort
