Plug 'N Power Mini Remote Control Center (610-2677C) Preparation Faxback Doc. # 16841 CAUTIONS: Turning lights and appliances on and off by remote control is a great convenience, but there can be some unexpected consequences. For example, you might unknowingly turn on an empty coffee pot in another room, and it could be damaged by overheating or could even start a fire. You might also turn on an electric heater in another room when flammable materials are close to the heater. Again, damage or fire could result. To prevent such problems, carefully plan what you want to control (as described in this manual) and keep a system chart near your controller(s). You must always be aware of what you are controlling. HOW PLUG 'N POWER WORKS Plug'n power controllers, such as your mini remote control center sent out high-frequency signals through household wiring system. The plug'n power modules (not included) receive the controller's signals and turn the connected lights or appliances on or off. Two different types of codes- house codes and unit codes- allow you to control many different modules or groups of modules within your home. It is important that you understand how these codes are used before you set up your system. HOUSE CODES The house code is the master code for a plug'n power system. You must set the controller and all the modules it controls to the same house code. There are 16 codes to choose from (A through P). You can operate two or more independent plug'n power systems in your home by using a different house code for each system. Of course, each system must have its own controller and modules. You can control the same modules from two or more controllers by setting all the modules and controllers to the same house code. The different house codes also help you avoid interference between your plug'n power system and other similar systems in your neighborhood. UNIT CODES In each plug'n power system you can operate up to 16 different modules or groups of modules. Every module has a unit code dial with settings from 1 through 16 unit codes. You can use it to independently control only unit codes 1 through 8. (The mini controller's ALL LIGHTS ON and AL UNITS OFF commands affect modules with unit codes 1-16) If you need independent control of more than eight groups of modules, we suggest our 16- button controller (CMC 62-2672).
