How does Marmitek X-10 work?
Marmitek X-10 components use the existing mains wiring to communicate (using Marmitek X-
10 signals). You can build a complete system using the three different kind of components of
the Marmitek X-10 System:
1. Modules:
These components will receive Marmitek X-10 signals and will switch or dim
the attached lamp or appliance.
2. Controllers: These components will transmit Marmitek X-10 signals and thus will control
the Modules.
3. Transmitters: Wireless components like remotes. The signals of these components will be
received by a controller with transceiver functionality (IRRF 7243, TM13 or
console of a Marmitek Security System). The Transceiver will translate the
signals into Marmitek X-10 signals on the power line.
Addresses
You can select up to 256 addresses by setting two code wheels on the modules. The two code
wheels are dividing the address into a House Code ( A .. P) and a Unit Code (1 .. 16). On
Controllers the House Code is also selectable. When Modules and Controllers are set to the
same House Code they will work together.
The Marmitek X-10 System contains many standardized commands whereby modules set to the
same House Code will respond simultaneously (e.g. All lights on, all off).
