Amendments/Additions to 2007 manual included with the DK10
PLC = Power Line Communications – X10 Communications on the Mains Wiring
RF = Radio Frequency – Wireless Transmitters (DM10E, MS13E, KR22E, etc)
House Code = X10 House Code A – P
Unit Code = X10 Unit Code 1-16
PIR HA = Passive Infra-Red Movement Detector HA (DM10E, MS13E)
PIR Secured = Passive Infra-Red Movement Detector Security (MS18E
/MS90)
You can assign optional security remotes and sensors (Motion and Door/Window) to the console.
These can be used to arm/disarm respectively trip the console.
(The operation of the tamper switch on the PIR and door/window sensors: Currently, this will operate
as if the sensor has been tripped – so, with these changes, the tamper switch will trigger the 4
minute barking sequence when the dog is armed).
Home Automation modes:
1) Home Automation Mode (ARM LED not lit):
•
When sent X10 RF commands on the correct X10 HOUSE CODE/X10 UNIT CODE
combination, the dog does not bark
•
When sent X10 PLC commands on the correct X10 HOUSE CODE/X10 UNIT CODE
combination, it starts/stops the barking – The DK10 will bark for 30 SECONDS with commands
received via PLC
•
Console works as X10 PLC Transceiver for dusk/dawn detection from PIR to control e.g. a
light on PIR X10 HOUSE CODE/X10 UNIT CODE+1 on(dusk)/off(dawn).
•
Console works as standard RF/PLC transceiver. All X10 UNIT Codes/Commands to the set
X10 HOUSE CODE are passed on to the power line.
2) Home Automation Mode (ARM LED lit, manual control):
•
When sent X10 RF commands (via the DM10E or optional KR22E) on the correct X10 HOUSE
CODE/X10 UNIT CODE combination, it starts/stops the barking – The DK10 will bark for 4
MINUTES with commands received via RF. Please see Trigger Period on page 2 for further
information about the time length of barking
Note: (If you see only a 30 second bark length, then your premises/neighbor must have a
X10 Transceiver module set to the same HOUSE CODE – to fix this, change the DK10/DM10
HOUSE CODE to another letter)
•
When sent X10 PLC commands on the correct X10 HOUSE CODE/X10 UNIT CODE
combination, it starts/stops the barking – The DK10 will bark for 30 SECONDS with commands
received via PLC
•
With RF the unit does respond and is tripped to all the set X10 HOUSE CODE/X10 UNIT CODE.
So default X10 HOUSE CODE=A/X10 UNIT CODE=1, and this can be set by changing the
code wheel for the X10 HOUSE CODE, and sliding the switch to INSTALL and send the
respective X10 UNIT CODE via any X10 standard RF code.
•
When tripped, after a couple of seconds the Console sends the PLC ON command on the
Console Address; After 4 minutes the PLC OFF command is send to the same address. This is
to switch on a lamp or X10 Unit Code.
