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
Up to 256 group addresses can be mapped on each bus to the other. Major Application Examples
