CHANGING THE X10 HOUSE CODE

The MouseRemote defaults to House Code A, and in most cases you will not need to change this unless you are experiencing interference from a neighboring X10 system.

1.Press and release the X10 button.

2.Press and hold SETUP until the LED indicator lights steadily. Release the Setup button.

3.Use the number buttons to enter the number equivalent to the chosen House Code (1=A, 2=B

..16=P).

4.Press the ENTER button to confirm the House Code. The LED turns off.

Note: The Housecode you choose must match the Housecode on the Transceiver Module you are using it with.

IMPORTANT: make sure above that you press X10, Setup, then the number for the Housecode you want, then Enter. If you accidentally press Setup, X10, then a number, you might change the code for the X10 button, and it will no longer work as an X10 button. You will then need to change the X10 button back to code 780 as described on the following page.

CONTROLLINGAN

IR MINI CONTROLLER (IR543)

If you already own an IR Mini Controller, you will need to change the X10 Home Automation code in the remote to use it. The code for standard X10 Home Automation is 780. The code to control the IR543 Mini Controller is 781. To change the code:

1.Press and hold SETUP until the LED indicator lights steadily. Release the SETUP button.

2.Press and release the X10 button.

3.Enter 781 to control an IR Mini Controller, 780 for standard X10 control. The LED turns off after the last digit entered.

Note: In most cases, you will not need to use an IR543 Mini Controller to receive commands from the MouseRemote - the Transceiver Module (or any X10 Security System) does this for you and has the added advantage of working through walls. It also has the advantage of letting you control up to 16 X10 Modules - i.e. with a Transceiver when you press 1-6- ON you turn on Module number 16. With an IR543 when you press 1-6-ON you turn on Modules 1 AND 6. The IR543 can only control 10 Modules (1-9 plus 0=10). You cannot control the IR543 Mini Controller and the Transceiver Module at the same time from the X10 button, but you can program an IR Mini Controller under the AUX button.
