line. Because the Marmitek X-10 signals are transmitted on 120 kHz, only noise on
or near this frequency will have influence on the range. When you use a FM10 Filter
to connect this device to the power line, the noise will be filtered.
4. The Marmitek X-10 protocol has several mechanism to avoid modules to be switched
on or off by other sources than your Marmitek X-10 Controllers. However, it is possi-
ble that the Marmitek X-10 signals are disturbed by e.g. baby phones which are in
TALK mode (continuous transmission). When these kind of signals are present on the
power line it is possible that the Marmitek X-10 signals will not come through.
5. The mains do not stop at the front door of your home. Everything that is attached
to mains nearby your home can have influence on Marmitek X-10 signals (e.g. heavy
machinery). If you think that your system is influenced by devices out of your house,
it is advisable to install FD10 Phase Coupler/Filter on each phase entering the house.
These filters will block signals coming into or going out of your house, but will also
match the impedance for the mains. Hereby make your house Marmitek X-10 com-
patible for these units. The FD10's will not only filter but will also couple the phases
(please see 1).
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Marmitek X-10 in-wall dimmer module
LW11G. The LW11G can be used to switch and dim lighting from 60 to 500 W. The
LW11G dimmer module can be used locally as a push switch and can be controlled
remotely using Marmitek X-10 commands over the mains. The LW11G dimmer module
has soft start and soft dim, and a memory for the dim setting used last. When switch-
ing on again, you can choose between the last dim setting or full power (depending on
the Marmitek X-10 command or how long the button of the switch is held). The LW11G
frame is visually identical to JUNG CD500 Alpine White, but it can also be combined
with any momentary switch, regardless of its make or model.
INSTALLATION
SWITCH OFF APPROPRIATE MAINS FUSE BEFORE INSTALLING! To connect the LW11G,
you need a Neutral wire (blue) + phase wire 230V (brown) wiring to where you want to
connect the in-wall switch.
1. Take the present switch (if one is installed) out of the wall outlet box.
2. Disconnect all the wires on the switch.
3. Add a zero wire if one is missing.
4. Remove the cover plate on the LW11G in-wall switch.
