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. Examples of these modules are lamp modules and appliance modules. These are available as build-in, micro, DIN rail and plug-in modules.

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 CM15Pro). The Transceiver will translate the signals into Marmitek X-10 signals on the power line.

ADRESSES

Up to a maximum of 256 different addresses can be preset. These are subdivided into a so-called HouseCode (A to P incl.) and a UnitCode (1 to 16 incl.). The HouseCode can also be set on the controllers, so that the controllers and modules become part of the same system. The address can be set either using code dials or by pressing buttons, depending on the type of module.

The Marmitek X-10 System uses standard commands, which control all units with the same HouseCode at the same time (e.g. all lights on, all off, etc.).

SIGNAL RANGE

Range of Marmitek X-10 signals over the Power Line and how to increase the range.

The Marmitek X-10 System is based on power line communication. The range of the

Marmitek X-10 signals very much depends on the local circumstances. On average the range is a cable length of 80 meters.

If you have difficulties with the range of your Marmitek X-10 signals, please pay attention to the following facts:

1. When more than one phase is used for your electrical system, it is necessary to couple these phases for the Marmitek X-10 signals. For coupling you can use FD10 Phase

Couplers/Filters. You only need to install a Phase Coupler/Filter when your wall outlets and light switches are divided over more than one phase (more than one group is no problem). For bigger buildings or longer distances we advice you to use an active repeater instead of passive FD10’s.

2. It is possible that Marmitek X-10 signals are attenuated by devices and lights which

4 © MARMITEK

are connected to the power line. In a normal home situation this effect is negligible (the

Marmitek X-10 system is using active gain control to eliminate the effects). However, it is possible that a particular device in your house is attenuating the signals so much that the range of Marmitek X-10 signals is decreased significantly. When you have range problems, it is wise to try to locate the device which is attenuating the signals simply by unplugging devices from the power line, and testing the differences in range for your

Marmitek system. When e.g. your conclusion is that e.g. your computer monitor is attenuating the signal, you can use a FM10 Plug-in Filter between the power line and the monitor to eliminate the effects.

Known devices which can cause attenuation are:

PC Monitors

PCs with heavy internal power supplies

Old Televisions

Copiers

Fluorescent Lights

Gas Discharge Lamps (Energy Saving Lamps)

3. Some (old) devices are able to disturb the signal by transmitting noise on the power 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 possible 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 compatible for these units. The FD10’s will not only filter but will also couple the phases (please see 1).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

USING THE WIZARD

After you insert the batteries and choose “English,” the Setup Wizard screen appears. You can exit the Wizard at any time by pressing the

HOME key (located just below the screen). Follow the instructions on the Wizard screens to familiarize yourself with the OK, Back, and Side

Keys.

You can go back and forth through the Wizard, but once you’ve set up your devices and quit to save the settings, you won’t see the Wizard again unless you do a Master Reset.

To do a Master Reset: Press the HOME key, Setup, More, Advanced, Clear

Settings, More, and then Master Clear. Note this will erase everything you have set up in the remote.

SETTING UP YOUR DEVICE

After you’ve been through the Wizard for the first time, the screen shown to the right appears. This is the start of the Wizard for setting up your devices (TV being the first one).

If you know your brand of TV, select Yes, which results in a faster search for your TV’s code. Selecting No searches the complete library of TV codes, rather than just the codes for your brand of TV.

Pressing the Side Key for Yes takes you to the screen that shows the most common brands. Use the Side Keys to select your brand of device.

If your brand isn’t shown, you can press the Side Key adjacent to Next to show more brands, (shown alphabetically); or press the Side Key adjacent to Back to go back to the previous screen of brands.

After you select your brand, the next screen tells you to point the remote at your TV and keep pressing Power until it responds.

Pressing Power sends the Power code to your TV, and the screen shows that you’ve sent code 1 of xx (xx will vary by brand). Keep pressing Power until your TV responds and then press Save. (You can press the Side Key adjacent to Last Code if you overshoot).

6 © MARMITEK

Pressing Save shows a screen that instructs you to try a few other keys on the remote to make sure you’ve found the correct code. Tip: try keys like Menu, and Guide. Power might work, but you still might not have the correct code. If several keys seem to work fine, press Save Code.

If some keys don’t work, select Change Code (or press Back) to go back and find another code that works better. Pressing Save Code again takes you to screen where you set up a Cable box.

You can quit at this point and set up other devices later, or you can continue and set up other devices - SAT, DVR, DVD, VCR, Audio, CD Player, or either of the 2 AUX devices.

Let’s assume in this case that you set up a TV, Cable, and SAT. (Descriptions on how to set up

Marmitek X-10 devices are shown on the following pages.)

SETTING FAVOURITES

Once you’ve gone through the Wizard and set up at least a TV, and set up more devices, or skipped the rest of them, you arrive at screen shown to the right.

When you press any digit key, say digit 4, to enter a channel number, you go to a screen where you can enter more digits if desired. The channel number can include a dash (-) for digital channels, e.g., 2-3, or can include ENTER, or OK, if your device requires it to change channels, e.g. 472 OK

Press the Side Key adjacent to “Pick Logo.” You are shown a screen of popular channel logos. You can select Next or Back to see more logos.

In this example, let’s select the CNBC logo. The screen now shows that we’ve chosen channel 4 and the CNBC logo. Then let’s select

Pick Device, and choose Cable (if you’ve set one up).

Select Save to save the setting for this Favourite. Set Favourite 2 of 10 is now displayed at the bottom of the screen to indicate that you can add another Favourite channel. Again just press a channel number

key on the remote, choose a logo and change the Device Type (if you want to).

Add a few more Favourites. You can always Delete, or Edit them later, or even reorder their positions.

Select Done when you’re finished setting up

Favourites. (You can set up more later.)

The next screen lets you choose, where to store the

EASY ICON 10 RF™ 7

Favourites that you just set up, either in group or group.

Selecting takes you to a screen showing that you now have CNBC set as the first Favourite in Group, as well as any other Favourites that you’ve set up.

When you’re finished setting up Favourites, press the HOME button to go back to the Home screen.

WORKING WITH FAVOURITES

At any time, you can press the FAVOURITES key and select either the or Side

Keys; or, you can press the or buttons on the remote to go to your Favourites screen. Then, pressing the Side Key next to the CNBC logo will (for example) change the channel on your Cable box to CNBC (in this example, channel 4).

X-10 Home Automation modules that you’ve set up in All Rooms. (See

All Rooms image.)

The All Rooms function will display all the Marmitek X-10 icons from every room you’ve set up. However, they are displayed in one convenient screen for you to select from.

LEARNING

For the EasyIcon10RF to learn from another remote, do the following:

• Place the 2 remotes on a flat surface (table).

• Ensure that the transmitter end from the original remote is 40 mm or so away from the receiving end (bottom) of the EasyIcon10RF.

• Press the key/button on the original remote that you want to learn from for about a second and release it (press and release).

• Do not press and hold it for an extended period of time.

You can learn commands from an existing remote and store them under the “Main” Keys on the EasyIcon10RF, or learn commands from an existing remote and store them under any of the 10 Side Keys.

At the HOME screen press the Side Keys next to Setup, More, and Learn.

The next screen asks, “Where do you want to learn?” The question means, do you want to learn a command and place it on a Side key of the EasyIcon10RF, or do you want to learn a Main Key command and place it on a Main Key of the EasyIcon10RF.

If you press a right Side Key (to select Main Keys) you are going to learn, say, the Chan Up key from an existing remote and store it under the

Chan Up key on the EasyIcon10RF.

Or, learn the Power key from an existing remote and store it under the

Power key on the EasyIcon10RF, etc.

Select the Device you want to learn keys for. In this example we only have a TV, Cable Box and Satellite Receiver set up, so the rest are grayed out, but you can still select any of the devices to learn commands for. You are then instructed to line up the remotes, and press the key on the

EasyIcon10RF remote that you want to learn, e.g., the Power key.

Then, point the remote you want to learn commands from at the bottom of the EasyIcon10RF. Press and hold (in this example) the Power key on the other remote until the display shows that the command has been successfully learned. Note for some types of keys you might need to hold the key pressed, but for other types a quick press is sufficient.

Experiment a bit. If keys you learn are sent multiple times try learning them with just a quick press.

If the screen says Failure, you can press the key and try again.

EASY ICON 10 RF™ 9

You can continue learning more individual keys by following the instructions on the screen, and then press Done when you’re finished.

POWERMID XL AND XS

The Marmitek Powermid XL allows you to extend the distance you can use your remote!

You will be able to hide your IR sender from sight, and still operate your TV or other electronic devices through entertainment centers, cabinet doors, from another room, etc.

The IR-transmitter will receive the RF commands and sends them using IR through the transmitter cable included with your package!

SETTING UP MARMITEK X-10 DEVICES

The EasyIcon10RF Remote - coupled with other Marmitek X-10 Home Automation

Modules - gives you the ability to operate everything electrical in your home. Once you set up your remote, you can operate almost any electrical device from the remote, using the keys that have been configured for Marmitek X-10 Home

Automation Modules.

Description

Marmitek X-10 Home Automation systems use three types of signals - Infrared (IR),

Radio Frequency (RF), and Power Line Carrier (PLC). The EasyIcon10RF remote can send either IR, RF signals, or both, depending on how you’ve set up the remote to operate different equipment.

SET UP THE REMOTE FOR RF TRANSMISSION

The following example describes how to set up your TV for RF control.

Note: Keep in mind that when you set up a device to be controlled by RF signals, e.g., to turn on a TV, then the TV must be connected to an Marmitek RF device, for example the Powermid XL and XS, which will act on the RF signals to turn the TV on or off.

However, the EasyIcon10RF remote sends RF automatically when you are in Marmitek

X-10 mode.

FREQENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the reason for modules to switch on/off spontaneously?

It is possible that a Marmitek X-10 System is installed at one of your neighbours using the same House Code. To solve this problem try to change the House Code of your system, or have FD10 Phase Coupler/Filter installed at your incoming mains.

My modules will not respond to my controller.

Make sure that the House Code on all Modules and Controllers are set to the same

House Code (A .. P).

My modules will not react to my remote / sensor.

When you use a remote or sensor, you should have at least one TM13 Transceiver or

Marmitek X-10 Security Console installed in your house. These components will trans-

14 © MARMITEK

late the radio signals to the Marmitek X-10 signal on the power line. Using several remotes and sensors, you only need one central transceiver.

Am I able to increase the range of my remotes by using more Transceivers?

Yes, you can use more than one TM13 Transceiver in your home when the range of your remotes is not sufficient. The TM13 is using so called collision detection to prevent signals to be disturbed when more than one TM13 is transmitting. TM13’s will wait for a quite power line before transmitting their data. To prevent your Marmitek X-10 System to become slow or to prevent dimming from becoming less smooth, make sure that the

TM13 units are placed as far away from each other as possible.

The Favourites you set up don’t operate your device.

Make sure you selected the correct device (TV, Cable, Sat, etc., when you set up each favourite.

The Remote’s hard keys do not operate your product.

Make sure the remote is set to the correct Mode by pressing the MODE key followed by the appropriate Side Key for the device mode that you want.

• Program the remote with a new code.

• The remote may not contain the code for your device. Try learning the codes you need from your old remote.

• Install new batteries.

The remote does not operate some features of your product.

• Program the remote with a new code.

• The remote may not be able to operate all the features of your product or key names might be different than your product. Try learning codes from your old remote.

Having problems with learning?

If some learned keys transmit multiple times, e.g., if a learned Channel Up key changes more than one channel when you press it, or Up/Down/Left/Right navigation keys move more than one step when you press the learned key; try just giving the key to be learned a quick press (when you learn it) rather than holding the key pressed until the screen displays Success.

Your TV turns on when you press a Favourite key.

Some types of TV, e.g., Philips flat panel TVs turn on and go to the selected channel when you press a channel number while the TV is off. So for this type of TV pressing a favourite key will do the same thing (but it might not work for 3-digit channels, e.g., 550).
