Introduction

How it works
The Digital Clock Timer plugs into any AC outlet in your home and transmits digitally
encoded signals over your house wiring instantly or at the times you set. These signals
are received by the X10 PRO Modules.
You Plug a lamp up to 300 watts into a Lamp Module, an appliance such as a radio, fan,
or coffee pot into an Appliance Module and replace important indoor or outdoor security
lights up to 500 watts with the Wall Switch Module (modules sold separately).

Setting it up
Connect the power supply to the Digital Clock Timer and plug the
power supply into any convenient AC outlet.
NOTE: you must use the power supply that came with the Digital
Clock Timer. The power supply contains circuitry required to control
your X10 PRO Modules, so you CANNOT replace it with a regular
12V power supply.
Install two AA alkaline batteries in the compartment on the back, if
desired (to protect the time and programmed events if there's a
power outage).
