Special Notes
Intercom Systems
Intercom systems which send voice signals over existing electrical wiring may interfere with the ability to control modules from your X10 security system with the intercom in use. If the intercom system has its own separate wiring it will not cause a problem.
Arming
The ARM button on the Console arms the system in the delay mode only. Use a Remote if you want to arm the system in the instant (min) mode.
Outdoor infrared Motion Detector
The PR511 Outdoor Motion Detector will not trigger the X10 security system. It can, however, control the same lights that the security system controls.
