[. . . ] VK47A X10 MP3 REMOTE WITH RF RECEIVER OWNER'S MANUAL READ THIS FIRST! SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS Remember to exercise good common sense when using the Home Automation features of your MP3 Remote - especially when controlling unattended devices. If that should happen, your coffee pot could be damaged from overheating. If an electric heater is turned on by remote control while clothing is draped over it, a fire could result. DO NOT USE the remote for the control of high power heating appliances such as portable heaters. [. . . ] If the device responds, setup is complete. Notes: For CD players use the PC button (see IMPORTANT NOTE on page 25). If your TV/VCR/Cable Box/Satellite Receiver/DVD Player does not respond, try the other codes for your brand. If it still doesn't respond, try the Code Search method on page 13. If some buttons do not operate your equipment, try one of the other codes for your brand. 10 11 USING THE PC BUTTON TO CONTROL A SECOND TV, A VCR, CABLE BOX, SATELLITE RECEIVER, DVD PLAYER, LASER DISK PLAYER, OR CD PLAYER, ETC. The PC button is normally used to access MP3, DVD, or CD players installed in a PC. It can be reprogrammed to control other items instead, but note that if you do so you will no longer be able to control PC functions. Press the mode button* that matches the equipment you want to control. Press CHANNEL + repeatedly** until the device to be controlled changes channel. 4. Press and release the mode button that matches the A/V equipment you want to control. Press the mode button* that matches the equipment you want to identify. To find the first digit, press each number button from 0 to 9 until the LED blinks. Press each number button from 0 to 9 again as above to find the second digit. When the third digit has been found, the LED will turn off. 14 The remote uses radio frequency (RF) signals to send commands to the Transceiver module. RF signals can go right through walls, so you can use the remote to control lights or appliances from anywhere in your home. You should locate the Transceiver Module centrally in the home for maximum range when controlled by the MP3 Remote. HOUSE CODES AND UNIT CODES Each Module has a specific address made up of a House Code (red dial on the face of the Module) and a Unit Code (black dial on the face of the Module). The Remote sends a wireless signal to a Transceiver which retransmits it over the AC wiring to the Module. If more than one Module has the same address, both Modules execute the command. Addresses are set on the Module by turning the two dials on the front of the Module to the desired letter and number (using a small screwdriver or a coin). The House Code is selected from the letters A through P, and the Unit Code is selected from the numbers 1 through 16. UNIT CODE DIAL 1. Fully extend the antenna. LAMP MODULE The Lamp Module (sold separately) can be used to control any incandescent lamp rated up to 300W. It is not suitable for other types of lamp such as fluorescent or energy saving lamps, or lamps which include a dimmer control. HOUSE CODE DIAL 1. Set the House Code to `A' and the Unit Code to `2. ' TRANSCEIVER MODULE The Transceiver Module (sold separately) receives radio frequency (RF) commands from the MP3 Remote to operate a lamp or appliance plugged into it. The Transceiver Module also passes on commands over your house wiring to control other X10 modules (also sold separately). Note that unlike the Lamp Module you cannot dim or brighten a lamp connected to the Transceiver Module. 16 2. [. . . ] You might want to change this to use the PC button to control something else like an audio system, for example. Note however that if you do this the PC button will not let you access the MP3, DVD and CD (1, 2, 3, buttons). To reprogram the PC button to once again access these PC functions: 1. · Use manual controls or the original remote control to confirm the equipment is working properly. [. . . ]
