Marmitek LW12, User Manual, Page: 7 / 44

Exiting the programming mode
Automatic: Wait for 1 minute. The device will then automatically exit the program mode.
Manually: To return to Run Mode: either send "Address On", "Address Off" or press the key
quickly (no more than 1. 5 seconds between key presses). After 5 key presses or "On/Off"
commands, the LW12 will start to respond, indicating that the unit is back in Run Mode.
Detailed information on the type of switch
If the connected momentary switch is used, the status of the LW12 will change if the button
is pressed for less than 2 seconds. If the momentary switch is pressed for a longer duration,
the LW12 will dim. The module first dims all the way down and then back up.
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 Security Console installed in your house. These components will translate the radio
signals to the Marmitek X-10 signal on the power line. Only one Transceiver should be
installed for all remotes and sensors set to the same House Code.
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.
If your lamp doesn’t work:
• Does the light work if you connect it directly to the mains?
• Is the module connected to a surge protector? A surge protector might block signals from
your interface or controller.
• Is the HouseCode set correctly?
