INTRODUCTION
The Marmitek X-10 Mini Timer controls up to 8 X-10 Modules automatically or
instantly. You can have your outside lights as well as inside lights and appliances go
on and off at preset times to give your home a lived-in look while you are away.
You can program your Modules to go on and off at the same time every day or you
can set your radio to wake you up “Once” only, for an early morning flight. There is
even a “Security” Mode that automatically varies your programmed time each day so
your home doesn’t look like it’s controlled by a timer.
You can keep the Mini Timer by your bedside and it will wake you up on weekdays. It
has a snooze feature so you can sleep a while longer and you can turn the alarm off
on weekends.
You can manually turn off your child’s radio or night light from your bedside. You can
turn on ALL lights connected to Lamp Modules with the touch of a button if you hear
a suspicious noise at night. You can even turn off everything in the system with one
button.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Keep in mind that your Marmitek X-10 System will always turn lamps and appliances
on or off the instant you press the buttons. That’s obvious - but there can be some
unexpected consequences.
For example, an empty coffee pot can be remotely turned on. If that should happen,
your coffee pot may be damaged from overheating. If an electric heater is turned on
by remote control while clothing just happens to be draped over it, a fire could result.
Therefore, do not use with high power heating devices such as portable heaters.
Always be aware of what appliance you are turning on or off so that potentially
dangerous situations will not occur.
WHAT IT DOES
The Marmitek Mini Timer plugs into any AC outlet in your home and you set it like a
digital alarm clock. Channel number 1 also activates an internal buzzer so you can use
it as an alarm clock too! You can program up to 8 X-10 Modules from the Mini Timer
and you also have instant control of 8 Modules.
There is a handy snooze feature which lets you cancel the alarm buzzer by pressing
any key. This will stop the buzzer and will set the alarm off again in 10 minutes. You
can do this indefinitely.
Advancing to a particular time (in the Prog Set/Review mode) and then pressing a
number ON or OFF key will set an on or off time for that Module, every day. However,
if (within 4 seconds) you press “Once” you will change that program to occur only
once, if you press “security” you will change the program to occur at different times
each day (variably).
