also be used in a Comfort system setup.
Mains Supply
It is always advisable to check a property for the ability to transmit
X-10 signals reliably around the electrical ring-main using the
UR24/TM12U before specifying the use of X-10. Some buildings with
noisy mains supplies or appliances can produce a masking effect to
X-10 signals, also X-10 signals can attenuate over distance. Generally,
it is better to make sure that your Comfort CPU is supplied by the same
consumer unit/ring-main and same-phase which your X-10 modules are
working on although you can use X-10 on 3-phase installations with
phase couplers to take X-10 signals across from one phase to the next
using two FD10 modules.
(( The TW7223 X10 interface must be connected within the
Comfort Panel, the TW523 is connected outside. European
Panels have a suitable position for mounting the TW7223
interface above the mains transformer as shown below.

Connection to Local Expansion Modules
There are two types of Local Expansion Modules:
8-zone with 8 outputs - Model LEM01
16-zone without outputs - Model LEM03 (Cannot be used with
SEP02)
The Local expansion modules are connected locally to the Comfort main
panel or Remote Expansion Panels via a short 10-way ribbon cable to
socket J5. The board is mounted within the main panel using the four
fixing posts and screws provided. To enable the 16-zone board, ensure
that Location 40 (Table 35) is set to a value of ‘32’ or ‘36’ if RGR02 is
fitted and then complete the usual zone programming method as with
