The Transceiver Module (sold separately)

receives radio frequency (RF) commands

from Mouse Remote to operate a lamp or

appliance plugged into it. The

Transceiver Module also passes on

commands over your house wiring to

control other X-10 Modules. Note that

(unlike the Lamp Module) you cannot dim

and brighten a lamp connected to the

Transceiver Module.
You should locate the Transceiver Module

centrally in the home for maximum range

when controlled by the X-10 Mouse

Remote.

1. Set the House Code

to ‘A’ .

2. Plug a lamp or

appliance into the

Transceiver

Module.

3. Plug the Transceiver

Module into a

convenient AC

outlet. Fully extend

the antenna.

Each Module has a specific address

made up of a House Code (red dial on

the face of the Module) and a Unit Code

(black dial on the face of the Module).
The Controller first sends an address and

then a command on the AC power lines.

Only the Module with a matching

address will execute the command. If

more than one Module has the same

address, both Modules will execute the

command.
Addresses are set on the Module by

turning the two dials on the front of the

Module to the desired letter and number

(using a small screwdriver or a coin). The

House Code is selected from the letters A

through P, and the Unit Code is selected

from the numbers 1 through 16.
