X10 LW12E DATASHEET

Product number : LW12E

In Wall

Lamp Module

Key Features

• Small enough (46*46*17mm) to fit into a wallbox

behind a standard wall switch.

• 2 wires only (no Neutral).

• Works with incandescent lamp and dimmable

electronic low voltage transformer.

• Works with any X10 controller.

Benefits

The LW12E Micro Module can be mounted behind any

standard wall switch, even most designer switches.

It is an X10 receiver module that can be controlled by

any X10 controller or remote control sending X10

signals. It can also be turned On, Off, Dim or Bright

by external momentary action wall switches.

The LW12E reacts to the STANDARD X10 commands :

"All lights On", "All Lights Off", "All Units Off", from

any X10 controller set to its house code, regardless

of unit code or alternatively, by individual unit control

using "On", "Off", "Dim", "Bright". The unit will also

respond to Extended X10 Messages-Scene: Preset

Output, Include in Group, Activate Group, Brighten or

Dim Group. See X10 Code Format for more details

(Extended code message type 30hex, 31hex, 36hex

and 3Chex.)

House code and unit code are programmed using any

X10 compatible controller. There is an E²PROM that

stores the house and unit code even when the power

is cut.

Typical applications

On, Off, Dim and Bright of incandescent

lamp and dimmable electronic low voltage

transformer (60 to 250W). Not suitable for

Low Energy Fluorescent lamps.
