senders, cable senders)
B) Home Automation (light and appliance control via power net)
C) Home Security (security packages, wireless camera's)
About X10
X10 Power Line Carrier (PLC) technology was invented and patented
in the late 1970s by an engineering firm named PICO Electronics,
headquartered in the UK. The PICO engineers subsequently
relocated to Hicksville, New York and continued with their efforts to
develop a method of remote control of "record players" using existing
electrical power lines to send the control signals. They had already
tried and abandoned 9 different experiments and were working on
Experiment 10 when they had their breakthrough, hence the term
X10, which has been used to describe the signalling technique.
X10 Technology
The X10 signalling method opened up a whole new world of remotely
controlling almost anything plugged into the electrical power line,
without adding any control wiring. This was the beginning of
affordable home automation.
Basically, the X10 power line signalling technique consists of
superimposing and transmitting a 120khz coded signal on the 50hz
electrical power line. Using X10 transmitting device(s), the signal is
sent over the power line to X10 receiving device(s) which are
programmed with the same House and Unit code. There are 256
different standard X10 codes available (16 House codes: A through
P, and 16 Unit codes: 1-16).
X10 communicates between transmitters and receivers by sending
and receiving signals over the power line wiring.

AW12 In-Wall Appliance Module
This module can be activated by using a toggle switch or a push
button or using X10 PLC signals. It can be operated using the
following X10 signals: "Address On", "Address Off" and "All Lights
On/All Lights Off/All Units Off" if this option is programmed.
The unit will accept either a momentary acting key or a standard wall
switch with latching action. All key closures must be to Live. If a
momentary key is used, the relay changes state each time the key is
pressed, as long as the key press lasts for less than 1.75 seconds. If
a standard wall switch with latching action is used, it is assumed that
the key press will last for more than 1.75 seconds. In this case the
relay changes state on both the closure and opening. This type of
response will allow the unit to also perform 2-way control if 2
changeover latching switches are connected in series – as would be
the case with 2 way switching.

Programming
Default Setting:
combination of The default factory address is A1. If the address and "All lights on/All
lights off /All Units Off" option settings are not known, the default
address of A1 can be set by applying power to the unit and sending
the address P16 to the unit twice (using any X10 controller - i.e.:
TM13 + RF remote control). This can either be just the address "P16"
or "P16 On" or "P16 Off". The messages must be sent within 30
seconds of applying power to the unit.
Setting the default address automatically cancels the options to
respond to either "All Lights On", "All Lights Off" or "All Units Off".
Setting the Address and "All Lights On/All Lights Off/All Units
Off" Option:
To change the address and set up the "All Lights On/All Lights Off/All
Units Off " option the unit must first be put into Program Mode. To
enter Program Mode either send "Address On" and "Address Off" in a
quick sequence or press the external key quickly . After the relay
changes state 5 times, with no more than 1.75 seconds between
each change of state, the unit will enter Program Mode and the relay
will stop responding to indicate that it has entered the Program Mode.
Once in Program Mode the new address can be set by sending an
"Address" or "Address On" or "Address Off" message on the new
address code twice (using any X10 controller). If you want to change
the code again, just send the revised code twice – as before .
To set the unit to respond to "All Lights On" and/or "All Lights Off"
and/or "All Units Off" just send these messages twice on the new
address code (using any X10 controller).
Please note: The "All Lights On/All Lights Off /All Units Off " option
can be disabled by setting a new address or by returning to the
Default Setting – as above.
To return to Run Mode: either send "Address On", "Address Off" or
press the key quickly (no more than 1.75 seconds between key
press). After 5 key presses or "On/Off" message, the relay will start to
respond, indicating that the unit is back in Run Mode. If no action is
taken, the unit will automatically return to Run Mode after 60 seconds.
Important notice:
After the installation of the X10 controllers, all receiver modules have
first to be checked for correct function and address!

LW12 In-Wall Dimmer Module
The LW12 is a 2-wire X10 compatible dimmer for controlling
Incandescent Lamps and Dimmable Electronic Low Voltage
Transformers down to 60W. This module can be activated using a
momentary action Key or using X10 PLC signals. It can be operated
using the following X10 signals: "Address On", "Address Off" ,
"Address Bright", "Address Dim" and "All Lights On/All Lights Off/All
Units Off" if these last 3 options are programmed.
NEUTRAL
LIVE / PHASE
This unit will also respond to "Extended" X10 messages-Scenes. The
unit's Address, Response Options, Scene Responses, Output
Memory Level and On/Off Status are all stored in permanent memory
and are preserved through a loss of power. The output status is
reinstated after power returns. The unit will accept a momentary
action key. All key closures must be to live and to the same phase
that the unit is powered.
Installation
To install the LW12, only Live is required at the installation point.
Switch off appropriate mains fuse and master switch!
-Take the wall switch (momentary action switch) out of the wall box
-Disconnect all wires from the switch
-Connect the live to the L terminal of the LW12
-Connect the momentary action switch between the live and the K
terminal of the LW12
-Connect the load to SL terminal
-Re-fix the wall switch on the wall box
-Switch on mains fuse and master switch
Programming
Default Setting: The default factory address is A1. If the address and
"All lights On / All lights Off / All Units Off" option settings aren't
known, the default address of A1 can be set by applying power to the
unit and sending the address P16 to the unit twice (using any X10
controller - i.e.: TM13 + RF remote control). This can either be just
the address "P16" or "P16 On" or "P16 Off". The messages must be
sent within 30 seconds of applying power to the unit. Setting the
default address automatically cancels the options to respond to either
"All Lights On", "All Lights Off", "All Units Off" or any scene command.
Setting the Address and "All Lights On/All Lights Off/All Units
Off" Option.
To change the address and set up the "All Lights On/All Lights Off/All
Units Off" option the unit must first be put into Program Mode. To
enter Program Mode either send "Address On" and "Address Off" in
quick succession or press the external key quickly. After 5 changes,
with no more than 2 seconds between each change of state, the unit
MOMENTARY SWITCH
will enter Program Mode and the unit will stop responding to indicate
that it has entered the Program Mode.
Note: Because this is a dimmer with built in Fade-on and Fade-off it
takes some seconds to visibly change the output on/off state. This
can make it quite difficult to switch the output on and off quickly and
be able to see when the unit stops responding as it goes into program
mode. To make it easier, it is recommended to first dim the unit
somewhat before starting the Program Mode sequence.
Once in Program Mode the new address can be set by sending an
"Address" or "Address On" or "Address Off" message on the new
address code twice (using any X10 controller). If you want to change
the code again, just send the revised code twice – as before.
To set the unit to respond to "All Lights On" and/or "All Lights Off"
and/or "All Units Off" just send these messages twice on the new
address code (using any X10 controller).
Please note: The "All Lights On/All Lights Off /All Units Off" option
will be disabled by setting a new address or by returning to the
Default Setting – as above.
To return to Run Mode: either send "Address On", "Address Off" or
press the key quickly (no more than 2 seconds between key press).
After 5 key presses or 5 "On/Off" messages, the unit will start to
respond, indicating that the unit is back in Run Mode. If no action is
taken, the unit will automatically return to Run Mode after 60 seconds.
Important notice: After the installation of the X10 controllers, all
receiver modules have first to be checked for correct function and
address!
External Key: A momentary action push button switch can be
connected between this input and Mains Live to give On/Off and
Bright/Dim control. The switches must be returned to the same Phase
that the unit is powered from to give proper control.
Check the correct operation of the dimmer:
-A short key press of less than 0.5 seconds will cause the output to
fade off if previously on, or fade on to the memory position if
previously off.
-A longer key press than 0.5 seconds causes the output to cycle
through to full bright then back to full dim and to continue to do this for
as long as the key is pressed. The final brightness level is stored as
the memory position when the output is subsequently switched off. If
the output was off when the key is pressed to brighten the lamp, the
unit fades on to the memory position but doesn't continue past it. The
Bright/Dim cycle only occur when the output is already on when the
key is pressed.
It takes between 3.5 and 4 seconds to go from full dim to full bright.
Response to 'Standard' X10 messages
The unit becomes 'addressed' when it receives a A1-P15 message
that matches it's stored Address. P16 is reserved for setting in the
Default Address A1. Once 'addressed' the unit will respond to
function messages ON, OFF, BRIGHT and DIM.
When the unit receives a message, it will operate as follows:
"Off": Light fades off gradually.
"On": Light fades on to memory level.
"Dim": Dims from current light level.
*If the unit was previously off brings the unit on at full bright before
dimming
"Bright": Brightens from current light level.
"All Lights On": Brings light 100% on immediately (no fade on).
"All Units Off" & "All Lights Off": Full Off immediately (no fade off).
Response to 'Extended' X10 messages – Scenes (for the
professional)
The unit will respond to a set of control messages in Extended X10
message format that enable it perform timed fading to a new
brightness level and also to perform scene changes. The unit will
respond to Preset Output, Include in Group, Activate Group, Brighten
or Dim Group. See X10 Code Format for more details (Extended
code message type 30hex, 31hex, 36hex and 3Chex.)
Technical Data: Supply voltage: 230V/50Hz – 60 to 250W - Works
