USER MANUAL LD11 DIN RAIL DIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS • The wiring of your electrical installation is live (230 V) and extremely dangerous. Never connect the module when plugged into the mains. Always turn off the main switch before starting the installation. • This product is for professional use and should be installed by a certified installer. • To prevent short circuits, this product should only be used inside and only in dry spaces. Do not expose the components to rain or moisture.
HOW DOES MARMITEK X-10 WORK? Marmitek X-10 components use the existing mains wiring to communicate (using Marmitek X-10 signals). You can build a complete system using the three different kind of components of the Marmitek X-10 System: 1. Modules: These components will receive Marmitek X-10 signals and will switch or dim the attached lamp or appliance. 2. Controllers: These components will transmit Marmitek X-10 signals and thus will control the Modules. 3. Transmitters: Wireless components like remotes.
SIGNAL RANGE Range of Marmitek X-10 signals over the Power Line and how to increase the range. The Marmitek X-10 System is based on power line communication. The range of the Marmitek X-10 signals very much depends on the local circumstances. On average the range is a cable length of 80 meters. If you have difficulties with the range of your Marmitek X-10 signals, please pay attention to the following facts: 1.
When e.g. your conclusion is that e.g. your computer monitor is attenuating the signal, you can use a FM10 Plugin Filter between the power line and the monitor to eliminate the effects. Known devices which can cause attenuation are: - PC Monitors - PC’s with heavy internal power supplies - Old Televisions - Copiers - Fluorescent Lights - Gas Discharge Lamps (Energy Saving Lamps) 3. Some (old) devices are able to disturb the signal by transmitting noise on the power line.
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).
TM13 is using so called collision detection to prevent signals to be disturbed when more than one TM13 is transmitting. TM13’s will wait for a quite power line before transmitting their data. To prevent your Marmitek X-10 System to become slow or to prevent dimming from becoming less smooth, make sure that the TM13 units are placed as far away from each other as possible.
