Re: EWC's UT3000 & ComfortBridge equipment compatibility

Re: EWC's UT3000 & ComfortBridge equipment compatibility

That is correct...The ComfortBridge indoor unit simply needs a W signal for Heat or a Y signal for Cool.

Re: EWC's UT3000 & ComfortBridge equipment compatibility

Kevin, First off, the UT3000 can be used in non-communicating mode, to operate your ComfortBridge family of equipment, if full communicating mode cannot be achieved.

Re: EWC's UT3000 & ComfortBridge equipment compatibility

As you may or may not know, we have been working with Daikin on the CT protocol, for their FIT line of communicating equipment and the Daikin One communicating thermostat. As a result, the UT3000 firmware evolves to maintain compatibi...

Re: EWC's UT3000 & ComfortBridge equipment compatibility

Joylove, It's great that your ComfortBridge system can be fully controlled by the UT3000. We have received some reports of successful ComfortBridge installations using our patented UT3000 controller.
