X10 SM10 Universal Sender Module

Sender for controlling appliances and lights, that are plugged into the X10 modules, through the existing house wiring. Automatically switches all lights (on or flashing) in case of alarm, without running any extra wires. You can use almost every signal as a "trigger" for the SM10: contact closure (relays, switch of alarm keypad), but also any voltage between 6 and 18 V (e.g. doorbell transformer or amplified audio signal).

The SM10 can be used, for instance, to connect your present (non X10 compatible) alarm system to X10 modules:

A magnetic switch can be connected to the SM10, which can be used to turn lights on and off when opening or closing doors and windows.
The SM10 can be connected to the switch contacts of a light sensor or motion sensor or an (amplified) microphone or humidity sensor in order to activate X10 modules.
The door switch of your garage door can be connected to the SM10 to automatically switch on the lights when the door opens, etc...

Connects to an existing system and turns on lights when tripped. It has 3 modes of operation:

In mode 1
The SM10 will turn On all Lamp Modules and Wall Switch Modules set to its House code, and
will also turn On any other Modules set to its Unit code, a stereo connected to an Appliance Module, for example. All Lamp Modules and Wall Switch Module are left in the On state when the system is deactivated, but the Module set to the same Unit code as the SM10 will turn Off.

In mode 2
The SM10 will FLASH all lights connected to Lamp Modules or Wall Switch Modules. All Lamp and Wall Switch Modules will be left in the On state when the system is de-activated but Appliance modules set to the same House code as the SM10 will turn Off.

In mode 3
The SM10 will turn ON any Module set to the same House Code and Unit Code as the SM10 when the system is activated and turns it OFF when the input contact is opened.

Set the input switch to A for triggering the interface by a low voltage input (6-8 V AC, DC or audio), to B for triggering the interface by a dry contact closure. Do not connect 220V to the input terminal!

The SM10 has a test button which allows you to activate it whether or not it is connected to a system. The All light off button allows you to turn off anything which has been turned on by the interface. To install the SM10 (is expected to be installed inside the security controller panel) :

• Connect the system output to the screw terminals
• Connect the flying lead to the 230V power supply, most likely at the 230V side of the transformer
