If the RECORD light is on, you may
have just switched the console from
INSTALL to RUN. The console then
plays back the message. Wait 15
seconds and the RECORD light goes

If the RECORD light is not on, but the
console appears to be locked up, you
might have just triggered the system.
When the console dials out and
someone answers the phone and
presses any key, the console is put
into the listen mode for 75 seconds. If
you immediately call back the person,
or they call you, your phone will be
busy. Wait for 75 seconds: the console
will be operational again and the
phone line will be free.

Intercom Systems
Intercom systems which send voice signals over existing electrical wiring may interfere
with the ability to control modules from your X10 Personal Assistance system with the
intercom in use. If the intercom system has its own separate wiring it will not cause a
problem.
