Eaton xComfort Bridge

Bridge Energy Control expands the possibilities of the xComfort bridge installations beyond the classic control of lighting, shading, indoor climate and loads by introducing load control based on dynamic tariffs and monitoring of energy consumption. This new feature will give homeowners more control over their energy bills by giving visibility to the energy usage of their electrical loads, and the rest of the home.

With the app the user can easily control all functions of the bridge:

Configuration:

• Add xComfort Sensors and Actuators easily via barcode scan (Smartphone camera) or learning mode
