(continuous transmission). When these kind of signals are present on the power line it is

possible that the Marmitek X-10 signals will not come through.

5. The mains do not stop at the front door of your home. Everything that is attached

to mains nearby your home can have influence on Marmitek X-10 signals (e.g. heavy

machinery). If you think that your system is influenced by devices out of your house, it is

advisable to install FD10 Phase Coupler/Filter on each phase entering the house. These filters

will block signals coming into or going out of your house, but will also match the impedance

for the mains. The FD10’s will not only filter but will also couple the phases (please see 1).

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the LW12.

• The MicroModule can be installed behind conventional wall switches or into wall outlets

because of the extreme small size of the MicroModule (Minimum built-in depth 40 mm,

advised 50 mm). The MicroModule is also ideal for installation into light fixtures or for use

in areas with limited space such as rooms with lowered ceilings.

• Universal compatibility: No limitation in choosing brand, colour or type of any wall

switches and outlets. The LW12 can be used to switch and dim 230V light bulbs, 230V

halogen lamps and low-voltage halogen lamps with transformers ranging from 60 to 250

watts/230 volts.

This module can be activated using a momentary switch connected to it or using Marmitek X-

10 PLC signals. It can be operated using the following Marmitek X-10 signals: ON, Off, DIM,

BRIGHT and the optional Marmitek X-10 commands All Lights On/All Lights Off/All Units Off if

these are programmed. The unit will accept a momentary switch. The input for the switch is

connected to the phase (brown wire, 230V), the output of the switch is connected to input

"K" of the LW12 MicroModule. See figure A.

No Neutral (blue wire) has to be connected to the LW12 MicroModule, which means it can be

easily used instead of a normal switch, without additional wiring. The module is equipped

with softstart, softdim and a memory setting for the last dim level. When power has been

interrupted, the module will be in the OFF position. The

LW12 uses 1-way X-10 communication.

INSTALLATION

• Switch off appropriate mains fuse and master switch!

• Where present, take the wall switch out of the wall

box.

• Disconnect all wires from the switch.

• Connect the live (brown) and load wire (black) to the

terminals of the LW12 as described in figure A.

• Replace your normal make/break contact switch by a

momentary switch.

• Connect a load wire (brown) to the momentary

switch (CAUTION: In the interest of safety

and to make the device work properly, this load wire
