If the PC Control remote was previously controlling the television volume in SAT
mode, it will now control the volume of the satellite decoder. If it was previously
controlling the volume of the satellite decoder, it will now control the volume of the
television.

5. Controlling home automation modules

The PC Control remote allows you to control all electric appliances you have in your
house. In addition to transmitting infrared signals, which controls your TV, VCR, SAT, DVD
and AUX, your remote is equipped with a radio transmitter sending Marmitek X10 signals,
which will enable you to control lamps and electric appliances from a distance.

Here are some examples that you can do with your PC Control remote using home
automation mode:

Switch on/off, dim lights while you watch TV.

Switch on the lights at night to frighten intruders when you detect something
suspicious.

Switch on your electric blanket before the film ends to have it warm when you go to
sleep.

For controlling your lamps or appliances, you will need additional home automation
modules. The modules are simply plugged into AC outlets with no additional wiring
required. Visit www.marmitek.com for more information.

To switch on/ off an appliance plugged into an home automation module: Press
the

key (3), then press the unit code of the home automation module on the key pad

(11) and then press CHAN+ / - (9).
To dim/bright a light plugged into a home automation module: press its unit code
on the key pad (11) and then press VOL+ / - (10).
