The default Physical Address of the UCM/EIB in the EIB bus is 1/1/200, ie Area 1, Line 1 address 200. This was fixed in the UCM/EIB firmware.

The new version UCM/EIB 5.102 allows the physical address to be selected between 1/1/200, 1/2/200, 1/3/200, and 1/4/200, ie the Line number can be selected between 1 and 4. Selection is  by the SW8 shunts. Please refer to the EIB Manual rev 2.0.12 on the Cytech website.

This allows several Comforts to be connected with their own UCM/EIB to the EIB Bus in a large installation. This may be needed where the system requires more than 256 counters or more than 64 inputs and 64 outputs of a single Comfort system.
The new UCM/KNX allows for any KNX Physical address to be selected in the  KNX Properties page instead of having to depend on shunts. This means that a Comfort system can even support more than 1 KNX bus if required
