Switches:
For ease of operation,
the Multiplex Control
panel is equipped with
a green backlight that
illuminates the various
switches. This makes
them easy to read both
during the day and at
night. Touching any
switch automatically
turns the green
backlight on. The green
backlight is on a timer and will stay on for a few
minutes before automatically turning off.
All individual Multiplex switches illuminate
with an orange LED color when pressed. This
indicates that the switch is on. When the switch
is pressed again and turned off, the orange LED
goes out.
Operation:
Most Multiplex switches, such as lights and
the water pump, are ON and OFF switches.
Simply press the desired switch to operate.
There are variations: Halogen lights, such
as the Sofa Overhead and reading lights, are
dimmable and have seven dimmer settings.
Press and hold the switch to cycle
through the seven different settings.
If the light is turned off, the system will
remember the dimmed setting when
turned on again.
Troubleshooting:
Ensure the Battery Cut-Out switch is on.
If the backlighting turns on and the
orange communication LED illuminates

the fuse for that circuit. Each module is
labeled to show the circuit assignments.
fuSeS
The 12 Volt DC fuses, located in the
distribution panel, service the interior house
functions. Should a fuse blow it will be evident
by the broken metal strip located in the center
of the fuse. Replacement fuses should be of
the same amperage. If a higher rated fuse is
installed it can damage the wiring. Fuse current
set points follow much of the same electrical
principle as the 120 Volt AC breakers. Using 12
Volt DC as the electromotive force can make it
more susceptible to outside influences, such as
corrosion from weathering or oxidation.
The danger from shocks with this voltage is
minimized, but can still occur. A good example
is when a magnetic field is generated, then
collapses when the power supply is cut. The
result is a discharge that can reach tens of
thousands of volts for a short time period. Care
should be used when working with this voltage
as current values can be quite high, as in the case
of battery cables.
Shorting a battery cable to ground with a
battery at a reasonable state of charge can result
in a fire or serious personal injury from a burn.
