5. CHANGING THE SETTINGS

You can change the settings of the IR455 using a PC that runs under MS Windows.

5.1. Connecting the device to the PC

Connect the PC cable to a free serial port (COM port) of your PC. The other end of the cable can be connected to the ‘PC’ connection on the back of your IR455 (top connection).

5.2. Installing the software

• Place the CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive. The software will start automatically. If the CD does not start automatically, start the file setup.exe via your browser.

• Follow the instructions on your screen.

• When the installation is complete, choose: Programs > Marmitek > IR455.

• The program will start.

• Select the COM port (serial port) the IR455 is connected to and click GO.

If you do not know which COM port the device is connected to, choose a random port. Choose e.g. COM port 1 and click ‘GO’. If COM port 1 is the right option, you will continue to the next screen. If COM port 1 is not correct, you will receive the error message ‘Marmitek IR455 not connected to CommPort 1’. Choose another COM port until you have found the correct port.

You will now see the following screen:

1. You are in the program screen for

button 1 (LIGHT - 1 - GO) of the BEO4 remote control. By pressing the > button you will continue to the next button. There are 20 possibilities: the numbers 1-16 and the green, yellow, red and blue buttons.

2. ADDRESS: With this option you can

indicate which X-10 modules should be switched or dimmed when pressing a button. You can have a maximum of 8 modules respond to one button (atmospheric settings for e.g. reading and watching TV).

3. LEVEL (%): With this option you can

set the brightness of the lights.

4. CLEAR: Clears all settings for this button. You can have a maximum of 8 modules

respond to one button (atmospheric settings for e.g. reading and watching TV).

5. CLEAR: This clears the setting per line.

6. GO: Simulates the GO button (e.g. LIGHT - 1 - GO) of the remote control. The command

is executed by the IR455.

7IR455

7. STOP: Simulates the STOP button (e.g. LIGHT - 2 - STOP) of the remote control. The

command is executed by the IR455.

8. VIEW ALL: Generates an overview of all your settings. See chapter 5.4 for more

information about the codes used.

9. CLEAR ALL: Clears all settings.

10. SET DEFAULT: Restores the factory settings.

11. GET: Reads the settings from the IR455. See chapter 5.4 for more information about the

codes used.

12. STORE: Saves the new settings to the IR455.

13. SAVE TO FILE: Saves your settings to a file.

14. GET FROM FILE: Retrieves the settings from a file you saved earlier.

5.2.1. The selection box LIGHT

With this option you can select the button on your B&O remote control you want to program.

Besides the buttons 1-16 you can also program the coloured buttons on the remote control.

GREEN = green button RED = red button YELLOW = yellow button BLUE = blue button

5.2.2. The selection box ADDRESS

With these selection boxes you can select the addresses (A1-P16) of the X-10 modules you want to respond to this button on your B&O remote control.

Instead of an address (a combination of a letter and a number), you can also just select a HouseCode (A, B… P). If you choose a HouseCode, all modules using this code will respond to the button at the same time.

5.2.3. The selection box LEVEL (%)

When you have chosen an address under "ADDRESS" (letter + number, e.g. A1), you have the following options: 100% = ON 0% = OFF 5%, 10% ... 95% = directly set to the desired dim level.

ATTENTION: When using dimmer modules without a memory and switch modules (see overview in chapter 6) you can only select 100% or 0%. If you select a dim value (e.g. 40%) for these modules, the module will not respond. When you have only chosen a HouseCode under "ADDRESS" (e.g. A), you have the following options: 100% = ALL LIGHTS ON (only lamp modules with the HouseCode will respond) 0% = ALL MODULES OFF (all modules with the HouseCode will respond)

5.2.4. Saving your settings

Once you have programmed all your settings, they can be saved to the IR455 by pressing ‘Store’. You can then disconnect the unit from the PC. The settings are saved even in the event of a power failure.

5.3. Example

You want to use button 1 to control the You want to use button 2 to control the Marmitek X-10 module on address B1 Marmitek X-10 module on address B2

You want the green button to set module You want the yellow button to turn B1 to 30% and module B2 to 45% off all your modules on HouseCode B

5.4. Configuration overview

When using the buttons in the ‘Configuration’ window and the button GET FROM FILE, a configuration overview is shown.

The following codes are used: Light 1 = 1:A1-100,2:,3:,4:,5:,6:,7:,8:

THIS MEANS: Module A1 ON (100%) (+ space for 7 other settings)

7. USING THE MARMITEK X-10 SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE

PHASES

In some houses the energy supply is not 1x 230V, but 3x 230V. This is called a 3-phase system. In these cases, it can be necessary to couple these phases for the Marmitek X-10 signals. You can couple the phases by using FD10 phase coupling filters (art. nr. 08934). You need to do this when your wall sockets and light points are divided over multiple phases. Multiple groups do not pose any problems when using the Marmitek X-10 signal. For larger buildings we advise using an active 3-phase amplifier (CAT3000, art. nr. 09304) instead of phase coupling filters.

More information on X-10 signals and your mains can be found on:

www.marmitek.com/X10signal

8. TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Infrared reception frequency: 455kHz Infrared range: max. 10 meter. When the infrared signal has been converted

to X-10, the signal range is extended to the entire house. Dimensions: 105x105x30mm Power: 12V AC/DC 350mA X-10 command set: Standard X-10 (ON, OFF, DIM, BRIGHT, ALL LIGHTS ON, ALL

UNITS OFF) and Extended X-10 (directly calling up the

dim values: is supported by dimmer modules with a

memory function) X-10 Collision detection: Present
