4. ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE CONTROL

4.1 Control Options and Pushbuttons

The system allows manual or automatic remote control of
up to 7 electrical devices (lights, radio/TV, tape recorders,
fans etc.). This requires an optional X-10 controller and 7
remote X-10 units (see fig. 2). ON / OFF control codes are
communicated via the regular household electrical wiring.
Besides the X-10 units (numbered 1 to 7), it is possible to
control a device connected to the PGM output (unit No. 8).
While programming the system, your installer determines
ON and OFF times for each remote controlled device. He
also determines which zone sensors will switch the remote
controlled appliances on and off. However, the decision
whether the remote controlled appliances will respond
as programmed is up to you (see table below).
