Comfort II

1
Comfort II

• Whats New (updated Jan 2008)

2
Two-Piece Design

• Consists of CPU Board and DSP Board, joined by a
  28 way connector
• CPU Board has Inputs, Outputs, Siren, Strobe,
  KA/KB, 12V etc for Alarm functions
• DSP Board has Tel In, Tel Out, Voice, Mic, power
  supply for Voice and Dialing functions

3
Slave

• New Generation Slave will be the CPU Board with
  Slave firmware
• Power Supply board will replace the DSP board
  connected to the Slave

4
Flash Upgrades

• Flash Firmware upgrade is available as Plug-in
  Module (MPU01)
• Comfort II with Flash MPU plug-in (see picture)
  can be upgraded by firmware download via
  Comfigurator 2.2.x. This requires new UCM05
• In 2008, Comfort II PCB will come with built-in
  Flash firmware and will not require MPU01

5
UCM05

• New UCM05 is able to download new firmware
  upgrades to Comfort II with built-in Flash or
  Flash MPU. Requires Comfigurator 2.2.x
• Programming Cable connects UCM05 with Comfort II,
  Slave II or UCM05/EIB/CBUS to be upgraded
• IR Learning is standard feature

6
Local Expansion Modules

• LEM01-M2 or LEM02-M2 or LEM03-M2 will plug on top
  of CPU or Slave Board
• Output module will be plugged into LEM and can be
  removed

7
Battery Protection

• Battery protection function is built in. BPM01
  Module not required.
• Prevents over-discharge of battery
• Current limits charging current to a low battery

8
Piggyback Modules

• Ringer Module RGR04 can be plugged in
• LEM can be plugged in
• Output Module can be plugged in. This allows
  damaged Outputs to be replaced without any
  downtime
• Firmware upgrades can be plugged in
• Saves space in the enclosure

9
Isolation

• Comfort circuitry is isolated from earth. Plastic
  standoffs for mounting PCB
• Provides better protection from lighting induced
  surges.
• All Inputs and Outputs have been tested to 4kV
  surge.
• Improved Telephone line protection

10
Testing/Approvals

• EMC compatibility for US and European standards
• Safety testing for CE Mark
• PSTN standards compliance to US, European and
  Australian standards
• Tested to extended surge voltages (4 KV) compared
  to European standards

11
Full Duplex Intercom

• Full Duplex Intercom between Tel and KP/DP and
  between KP and DP
• New KP04 versions needed with better acoustic
  isolation
• KP03 and DP03 replaces KP01/02 and DP01
• DP and KP have separate Mic/Voice connections

12
Various Improvements

• Better Busy Tone detection during recording,
  voice menu, Intercom
• Automatic Gain Control (AGC) during recording

13
Vocabulary Tool

• VoiceProc software allows customisation of
  wordlists for specific applications and
  development of vocabularies in other languages
• VoicePlay allows sentences to be heard in
  compressed and original form

14
System Voltage

• CPU and DSP circuitry operates at 3V instead of
  5V.
• This means analog input voltage is 0 to 3V

15
Other New Features

• Conditional Branch Instructions will improve
  if/Then code generation
• 32 Time Programs
• 16 Reminder Messages
• Say Word Action
• 64 User Timers

16
Compatibility

• All current external modules on RS485 bus will
  remain compatible (Slaves, RIOS, Keypads, Door
  Stations, UCMs)
• KP01, KP02, KP04, DP01 will remain compatible but
  with poor performance for full duplex intercom.
  Upgrade to KP03, KP04/X, DP03 is recommended

17
