  Alarm Dialout to phone numbers
Posted by: slychiu - 11-21-2023, 11:35 AM - Forum: Security System Programming - No Replies

The Comfort system can dial out to 8 phone numbers in the event of an alarm. Each of the 31 Alarm Types can select ANY combination of the 8 phone numbers to dial out to. 

The Phone Numbers can be selected from Voice Phone, SMS (with UCM4G GSM Module) or Central Monitoring Station (alarm receiving centre)

Enter the phone type and phone numbers in Alarms > Phone Numbers.

In Alarms > Alarm Type, select the Alarm Type eg Intruder and check thebox for any combination of the 8 phone numbers for this alarm type. 

Phone numbers 1 and 2 are normally reserved for Central Monitoring Stations. However if this is not needed, the 2 phone ppositions can be used for the other phone types.
Phone numbers  3 to 8 may be freely assigned to Voice Phone or SMS. 



Dialout Groups
Phone settings 1 and 2 form one group for dialing out, while 3 to 8 form another group. In the first group, a kissoff from a Monitoring Station or a valid sign-in from a Voice Phone
stops further dial outs to that group. In the second dial out group (3 to 8), a valid sign-in from a Voice phone stops further dial outs to other phones in the group.  Acknowledged dial outs to SMS do not stop dial outs to other phones, but end dial outs only to that particular number. 

The sequence of dial outs is from phone 1 to 8. If a dial out is not acknowledged or if the called number is busy or does not answer, the system dials to the next number in the list, and returns to the failed number in the next cycle.
When the user receives a phone call, the Alarm Message and Alarm Tyoe is announced. Press # to acknowledge the alarm, or press * and enter the user code and # key, eg *1234#. This  does not disarm the system. Signing in will stop further dialouts to the same Group (phone 1 and 2, or Phones 3 to 8)

  Help with extracting programming out of the LOGIC ENGINE CONTROLLER PCB
Posted by: willbeyondzero - 11-13-2023, 11:55 PM - Forum: How to Use Comfigurator - Replies (5)

Hey guys, 
I\'m trying to backwards engineer some programming that was left on the logic engineLGX01 by another commissioning ex-employee who has since left. 
So far I\'ve been able to connect to the device via the ethernet eth03 connector but as soon as I try to read the logic module I get the following attached error. 
Ive also tried to scan for all modules in the configurator application however Í also recieve the exact same comfigurator error. 
Do I need to upgrade the firmware or software or something?
I believe this install was done 5 years ago and I am using comfigurator version 3.14.3.0.
If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be much appreciated. 
Thanks in advance.

  Communication Failure 81
Posted by: NickLocke - 10-29-2023, 08:53 PM - Forum: Troubles - Replies (5)

I still have a Comfort 1 (yes, I know, time to change!).   
All of a sudden I have heard the keypad announcing \"Communication Failure 81\".  I can\'t find any reference to \"81\" in the various documents which talk about SEM, LEM etc - so I am hoping someone can shed some light on where I need to look. 
It may be related, or maybe not, but I have always had zones 1 and 5 configured to announce when they are activated.  They are both zones on the main board, of course. At the moment, I hear the announcement for zone 5, but not for zone 1. 
Any thoughts would be very welcome. 
Thanks,  
Nick

  CM9001-EMS2
Posted by: slychiu - 10-28-2023, 05:41 AM - Forum: Environmental Monitoring System - No Replies

The new CM9001-EMS2 will soon replace CM9001-EMS for Environmental monitoring Systems. The main difference is that this will support 128 inputs and Outputs (and 7 Slaves) but will have fewer Responses 400 for EMS2 vs 512 for EMS (400 will still be more than enough for almost any application). It shall be possible to upgrade the firmware from EMS to EMS2 using the following method

If the EMS firmware is less than 7.212, then upgrqde to the latest which should be EMS 7.212. Next upgrade the firmware to EMS2 by downloading the EMS2 firmware from https://www.cytech.biz/product_details.p...id=504Look for EMS2 firmware in the Files tab.

Comfigurator 3.14.3 or above is needed to support the Upgrade to EMS2

The differences between EMS and EMS2 firmware is in the attached file

Is there a simple way to determine the PCB version in a comfort install.

When was Comfort 2 introduced and how to determine if a PCB is Comfort 1 or 2?

Thanks

  Comfigurator 3.14.X
Posted by: slychiu - 10-22-2023, 05:19 AM - Forum: Comfigurator - Replies (6)

Comfigurator 3.14.1 Changes from 3.13.9
Known Bugs

  1. Upgrade firmware for Controller shows \"Cannot Obtain Firmware Information\". Workaround -  Please download firmware directly from https://www.cytech.biz/firmware.html Or downgrade to 3.13.9 at https://www.cytech.biz/download_files.php?item_id=1301
  2. Upgrading KP04, KP06, IRIO, MSM, TSM by Coimfigurator will case an error \"Incompatible File System\" to be displayed. Revert to 3.13.9 as workaround
  3. The number of IRIO Modules are not correctly detected after scan for modules for CM9001-EMS and CM9001-EMS2
  4. For UCM/KNX and KNX/Logic in KNX Monitor Mode, when logged in by eth03 in CM9001  telegrams do not appear in KNX Monitor or Learn Mode
Bugs Fixed
  1. For CM9001-EMS, No of slaves was limited to 3, now it can be increased to 5
  2. For CM9001-EX, No of slaves was limited to 3. Now it can be increased to 5
  3. The action Set Virtual Input On/Off could not select Virtual Inputs correctly
  4. When UCM ID1 is not connected, and Comfigurator is connected to UCM > ID2,  Scan for Modules may show an extra UCM ID1 with firmware version 255.255

New Features and Improvements
  1. For the Register Monitor in Comfort Register, the right Pane Set Value box does not show the value of the register, so that if the value is constantly being updated, entering a new value will not be affected by the read values. The centre pane will show the register values that are updated constantly
  2. Supports Future UCM ARM processor models

  integration with BPT building doorphone entry system
Posted by: 2dp - 10-19-2023, 08:23 AM - Forum: Door Stations - Replies (17)

Hello!We have a penthouse apartment in a multi-apartment building. The building has an analogue multiwire doorphone entry system manufactured by BPT (an italian manufacturer). The client wants to use Comfort system to answer the doorphone calls and open the building entry door.
In the attachment, I\'m sending our wiring diagram. K1 relay is activated by BPT system bell signal and this part works fine (call from the outside comes through on the Comfort system (keypad etc.).K2 relay needs to be activated by a Comfort output once the user answers the call, and deactivated once they open the door. This way, the MIC and SPK lines get active. We\'re using (per example) output 8.
Our idea was to program PhoneOffHook misc event to activate output 8 and PhoneOnHook misc event to deactivate output 8.
However, we get no audio either way. Sad
It is necessary to keep MIC and SPK lines disconnected prior to receiving a call because otherwise we receive calls to any of the tenants (whatever call button somebody outside presses, we get the ring, unless MIC and SPK lines are disconnected - the original in-apartment doorphone unit has a dual microswitch that mechanically disconnects both lines when you lay down the handset).
Also, door opening doesn\'t work by itself. Do we need to specifically program an action to activate relay 1 on the DM02 module or does it activate by default when user presses 4 on the keypad?

  What SMTP servers do people use?
Posted by: timop001 - 10-13-2023, 02:15 PM - Forum: Ethernet UCM/ETH03 - Replies (6)

Interested to know what SMTP servers people use for Comfort transactional emails.
I have several pieces of kit that issue transactional emails (Acronis backup, UPS, network monitor) and for these I use the google server gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com:25 which does not require authentication (no user name or password) if the sender and recipient have gmail addresses and the mail volume is low. This works flawless for these devices but not for Comfort mail server. Since there is no feedback from the server on errors I have no idea where this is failing. The whole email process is getting more complicated as security increases.
I have fallen back to SMTP2Go as recommended and though they have tightened usage on their free account and you need to verify the sending address - it works.
Any other methods out there ?

  Strange problem with SEM zone shunts
Posted by: lms - 10-11-2023, 06:41 PM - Forum: Problems & Troubleshooting - Replies (9)

I have a CM9000 (firmware 7.201) with a LEM01-M2.

Initially there were three SEMs attached (all firmware 7.207) with the first and second SEMs being the older SEM01-M2 boards and the last one being a new SEM01C (but with the old SEM01-M2 power supply board). The first one has a LEM01-M2 but not yet the 2nd or third. Each of the four locations has it\'s own AC power supply and battery all have 0VDC commoned.
The problem with the above configuration was zone troubles on the zones of the 2nd SEM01-M2 - jumpers are set for no EOL resistors. I\'ve removed the cables and have directly connected switches for testing but the problem persists. The zone announcements appear to be working correctly but the zone trouble is also announced. I have not yet configured the last SEM (other than setting the ID to 3). If I bypass these zones, the zones are no longer announced, but the trouble announcements still occur.

I then replaced the first SEM01-M2 with a new SEM01C (but also with an old SEM01-M2 power supply board) and set it\'s ID to 2. The problem persists. Further, on this new SEM01C, the \"Use Shunts\" setting is the default and cannot be changed. The last SEM (also SEM01C) correctly shows \"No EOL\".
All SEMs are being polled but the 2nd & 3rd ones are reporting the Serial Number as \"Invalid\" while the first one reports \"Unassigned\". And the trouble zones appear to be correctly showing Active or Inactive.

This has me rather stumped and I\'d appreciate any advice.
