HOUSE CODE

DIAL

Each Module has a specific address made up of a House Code (red dial on the face of the Module) and a Unit Code (black dial on the face of the Module).

The Controller first sends an address and then a command on the AC power lines. Only the Module with a matching address will execute the command. If more than one Module has the same address, both Modules will execute the command.

Addresses are set on the Module by turning the two dials on the front of the Module to the desired letter and number (using a small screwdriver or a coin). The House Code is selected from the letters A through P, and the Unit Code is selected from the numbers 1 through 16.

TRANSCEIVER MODULE

The Transceiver Module (sold separately) receives radio frequency (RF) commands from Mouse Remote to operate a lamp or appliance plugged into it. The Transceiver Module also passes on commands over your house wiring to control other X-10 Modules. Note that (unlike the Lamp Module) you cannot dim and brighten a lamp connected to the Transceiver Module.

You should locate the Transceiver Module centrally in the home for maximum range when controlled by the X-10 Mouse Remote.

1.Set the House Code to ‘A’ .

2.Plug a lamp or appliance into the Transceiver Module.

3.Plug the Transceiver Module into a convenient AC outlet. Fully extend the antenna.
