disconnect its 4-pin plug from the PG2000. Remove the
receiver module usually held in place by double stick tape.
4. Take one of the XPFM modules (see Figure 1), set the
UNIT dial to channel 2 and the HOUSE dial to the
appropriate code (A is usually chosen for first time X-10
use). Place this module on the LEFT side of the PG2000
as seen in Figure 4. First clean the mounting surface, then
attach module with the double stick tape provided. Using
the wire nuts provided, connect the BLUE wire and the
YELLOW wire (from the colorwheel fuse). The BLACK
(120VAC, line) wire will be connected in the next
instruction.
5. Take the other module, set the UNIT dial to channel 1 and
the HOUSE dial to the same as the other module. Onto a
clean mounting surface, place this module on the RIGHT
side of the PG2000 with the double stick tape provided.
Connect the BLUE wire, the BLACK wire (from the
LEFT side XPFM), and the smaller BLACK wire from
the Ballast fuse together. Now, connect the RIGHT side
XPFM’s BLACK wire to the main’s BLACK wire.

10. Change the side switches to match the Remote Switch Control setting (see Figure 3). Each switch is set to its own
remote switch position (power and colorwheel).
