Note: Only lamp modules and wall switch modules marked “for incan- descent lamps only” will respond to dim and brighten commands.

To dim a unit, press the UNIT-NUMBER key, then enter the unit number (or scroll to it using the SHOW and SET-UP keys) then press the * key on the keypad.

The console display top line will read “UNIT NAME DIMMER” (unit name being the description of the unit number you entered) and the bottom line will read “1-9 (STEPS DIMMER)”.

Press a number, 1 - 9 to indicate how much you want to dim the unit number.

1 is a little dimmer, 9 is a lot dimmer. Usually, 2 or 3 steps is best. The console will beep and the light will be dimmed.

To brighten a light, press the UNIT NUMBER key; enter the desired unit number; press the # key on the keypad for BRIGHTER, then enter the number of steps to brighten the light.

NOTES:

A lamp module that is OFF will come on to full intensity when a dim command is received, then dim the number of steps that you en- tered.

A lamp module that is dimmed all the way down, so that it looks OFF, is not actually off, and will not respond to an ON command. It should either be brightened or turned OFF then ON to restore full intensity.

ALL LIGHTS ON

To turn on all light modules, press the ALL key, then the ON key.

The console will beep, and a

command will be sent that turns all LAMP MODULES on. Note that lamp modules that are currently dimmed will remain at the same intensity; they will not get brighter. Appli- ance Modules do not respond when the ALL LIGHTS ON command is sent.

Only unit numbers 1 - 16 (and 81

-96 on the Version 2) respond to the ALL-ON command.

Note: The ALL ON and ALL OFF functions can be changed, if de- sired. See PROGRAMMING ALL ON

AND ALL OFF.

ALL OFF

To turn off all modules, including lamp and appliance modules, press the ALL key then the OFF key.

Only unit numbers 1 - 16 (and 81

-96 on the Version 2) respond to the ALL-OFF command.

Note: On Model 1503 Version 2 systems, you can set modules that you do NOT want controlled by ALL ON and ALL OFF commands to the third and fourth X-10 house codes, (units 97 - 128).

TIMED ON/OFF COMMANDS

The timed on/off commands allow a control output to be turned on or off for a specified period of time.
