Comfort is the only home automation and security system which can be connected to C-Bus (by Schneider) and KNX at the same time using UCM/Cbus and UCM/KNX.
Cytechs new Cbus to KNX translator CBUSKNX01 is gateway between a C-Bus and a KNX network allowing the two widely used and competing automation busses to be installed in the same system when a Comfort controller and alarm is not required.
This is a stand-alone PCB module (it does not need Comfort) with the same size as a UCM, ie 108 x 88 mm
It comes with terminal blocks for connection to KNX and C-Bus and a USB interface. Power is supplied by a wallmount adaptor.
The product allows C-Bus switches to control KNX actuators and dimmers and vice versa.
The free Bus Translator Configurator software allows C-Bus group addresses to be mapped to KNX group addresses and vice versa
The following C-Bus Applications are supported
- Lighting
- Trigger
- Clocks and Timekeeping
- Security
- Zones
- Custom Application
The following KNX telegrams are supported
- 1 bit (on/off)
- 4 bit (relative dimming)
- 1 byte (scaling)
- 2 bytes (Floating point)
- Time
- Date
Please note that the 2 bytes floating point telegram type can result in values that are not within the 1 byte limitation of Cbus, ie if the resulting value is > 255 then this value cannot be mapped to any Cbus group address
Up to 256 group addresses can be mapped on each bus to the other.
Major Application Examples- Allows some specialised components eg large capacity C-Bus dimmers to be used in an KNX installation.
- C-Bus Switches can be used with KNX relays and actuators on the back end and vice versa depending on user or installer preferences.
- Schneider's Wiser Home Control gateway can be used to control a KNX system.

In order to connect to the Cbus to KNX module, you must select the USB. Go to Options > Settings, and select the USB serial number as shown. Press Scan for USB Devices and make sure you can see the USB serial number in the dropdown window
