Remote Controlled Heavy Duty Switch, X-10 Activated
With Built-in Signal Bridge, and Repeater Function
Overview
The ELK-9100 is a remote controlled heavy duty switch which may be used with 220/240 Volt electrical appliances, water
heaters, pool pumps, or 110/120 branch lighting loads. It can be activated by an X-10 power line signal or contact closure
source. The unit features built-in signal bridging across both legs of the 220/240 power circuit for improved performance of
X-10 powerline signaling. It also features a selectable repeater function to provide more reliable X-10 communications over
longer distances.
Features
• Controlled Remotely from X-10 Power Line Carrier Commands.
• Optional Dry Contact Closure Activation.
• 30 Amp Long Life Double Pole Relay Contacts.
• Control One 220-240 Volts A.C. Device: Water Heater, Pool or Irrigation Pump, Heater, etc.
• Control Two 115-120 Volts A.C. Devices: Lights, Motors, etc.
• Built-in signal bridging of the two 220-240 Volts A.C. legs improves X-10 signal performance in the entire building.
• Selectable X-10 signal repeater functionality.
• Single or Dual Commands may be programmed to turn the relay On/Off. Dual commands reduce false activation.

- Page 3 MANUAL CONTROL Pressing the button on the front of the ELK-9100 sends a local signal to change the state of the relay(s). As long as Jumper J1 is set to RELAYS GROUPED, both relays will toggle. If Jumper J1 is set to RELAYS SEPARATED the relays will toggle through the four possible states of ON/OFF, OFF/ON, ON/ON, OFF/OFF with each button press.
