Feature
The X10 Dawn to Dusk Controller can be used to control lights and aplliances via X10 commands using Lamp and Appliance modules.The X10 Dawn to Dusk Controller activates lights and appliances throughout your home from any convenient location. The Dawn to Dusk Controller transmits signals to the Modules over your existing house wiring. You plug lamps into Lamp Modules, plug appliances into Appliance Modules and replace wall light switches with Wall Switch Modules. You can then control virtually everything electrical in your home. You can also dim and brighten lamps, and have them come on automatically at dusk.
How it works
The Dawn to Dusk Controller checks light levels via a photocell and tells the Modules what to do. Command signals are sent over your existing house wiring to the Module or Modules of your choice. The Modules respond to the command signals. The Lamp Module turns on and off, and dims and brightens any incandescent lamp up to 300 watts. The Appliances Module turns on and off appliances such as a TV, (not “instant on” TVs), a window fan, or a stereo. It can also be used for a lamp - but cannot dim it. The Wall Switch Module turns on and off, and dims and brightens an incandescent light up to 500 watts, which is normally operated by a wall switch.
