User manual X10 MS13A

[. . . ] The unit defaults to Housecode A and Unit Code 1, and it defaults to see motion at all times - day and night, so plug in an X10 RF Transceiver (model RR501 or TM751, each sold separately) and set it to Housecode A. Plug a lamp into an X10 Lamp Module (sold separately) and set it to Housecode A and Unit Code 1. To test the Motion Sensor: Press the House button once. The Motion Sensor transmits the "device ON" RF signal and the red light flashes. [. . . ] Hold the button pressed for 3 seconds on the last press. The red light then reports the setting with the appropriate number of blinks as above. To change the Unit Code that the Motion Sensor transmits: Press and hold the Unit/Off button (under the battery compartment lid) the red light flashes first and then blinks the current setting. Release and immediately press the button the desired number of times for the Unit Code you want to set. Hold the button for 3 seconds on the last press. The red light blinks back the number of times for the code you set. To change the House Code that the Motion Sensor transmits: Press and hold the House/On button (under the battery compartment lid) the red light flashes first and then blinks the current setting (once for A, twice for B, etc. ). Release and immediately press the button the desired number of times for the House Code you want to set (once for A, twice for B, etc. ). Hold the button for 3 seconds on the last press. The red light blinks back the number of times for the code you set. 1 of 2 To turn additional lights on when it gets dark. The Motion Sensor can send signals when it detects dusk and dawn so it can turn a light on when it gets dark and turn it off when it gets light (in addition to turning lights on when it detects motion). To have it turn a light on at dusk and off at dawn plug the light into an X10 Module and set it to the same Housecode as the Motion Sensor and to a Unit Code that is one number higher than the Unit Code of the module or camera that turns on when motion is detected. if the Motion Sensor turns on A1 when it detects motion, it will turn on A2 when it gets dark and turn it off when it gets light. If you use this feature, care should be taken to place the Motion Sensor where it sees plenty of sunlight during the day (such as near a window). If you place it in a dark corner it might not be able to tell the difference between day time and night time. Care should also be taken not to place the Motion Sensor near the light it is controlling, otherwise when the light turns on it might "fool" the Motion Sensor into thinking it's daytime, so it will turn the light off again!Note: If you use the Motion Sensor to control X10 wireless cameras, care should be take not to set any cameras to the code that the Motion Sensor sends at dusk and dawn (Unit Code +1). Otherwise your cameras will be turned off at dawn. To set whether you want the Motion Sensor to transmit EVERY time it sees motion or only at night: Press the Unit/Off button once. Then, (within 3 seconds) press and hold the House/On button. 3 seconds later the Motion Sensor reports its dusk/dawn setting as follows: The red light blinks once if the Motion Sensor is set to detect motion at all times. [. . . ] The default House and Unit Code transmitted when dusk/dawn is sensed is Unit Code +1 (i. e. A 2) ON at dusk, A 2 OFF at dawn. FCC CAUTION: THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES.
