Easy Touch Panel 10™
7. FREQUENTLY 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 translate 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.
I have defined a button but if I press this I hear a short beep but nothing happens.
The EasyTouch Panel 10 ensures that, after touching the screen, the corresponding Marmitek X-10 code is sent wirelessly.
This signal must be received by a Marmitek X-10 transceiver which then places this signal on the power line and can
then operate a module. Check whether your transceiver is receiving this by using a TM13 and defining, for example, a
TOGGLE button which is set to the house code of the TM13 and unit code 1. If you touch this button on the screen,
leaving a slight pause of 1 second between each touch, you should be able to hear the TM13 switch. If you have used
several house codes together, ensure that you also use several TM13 modules, each of which is set to a house code that
has been used. Or set the house code of your TM13 to house code P. Then, the TM13 will place ALL received house
codes on the power line.
I cannot find the selections ‘ALL LIGHTS ON’, ‘ALL LIGHTS OFF’, ‘ALL UNITS OFF’, ‘DIM UP’ and ‘DIM DOWN’.
These functions are not bound to a unit code. If you wish to programme these functions, browse through the unit codes
(1...16). You will find the above functions after unit code 16.
How can I move a button?
You move a button by deleting the existing button and adding it again.
How can I clean the screen?
You can use a clean, soft, lint-free cloth which you can moisten slightly with distilled water. Do not spray any fluids
directly onto the screen.
