Your Wireless Audio Sender kit consists of a Sender base unit which connects to the audio out jack on any audio source, a Receiver unit with built-in speaker drivers to which you connect your own speakers,* and a remote control that lets you control the volume, balance, bass, treble, etc. The Audio Sender converts the audio signal from your CD player, stereo, PC sound card, etc. into a radio frequency (RF) signal and transmits it (even through walls) to the Audio Receiver unit. The Audio Receiver converts the signal back to its original form, amplifies the signal, and passes it to your connected speakers. The remote is also a Universal Remote so it can also control your TV, VCR, etc. It can also control an MP3, DVD, and CD player in your PC when used with an additional RF receiver and software (see page 17). It can even control lights and appliances around your home when used with X10 Modules (see pages 24 and 25).
Place the receiver and speakers on your deck for example, and listen to high quality audio outside while you're having a barbecue. Do not leave the unit outside however, see below.

The Wireless Audio Sender usually works best with the flat faces of the antennas on the Sender and Receiver units facing each other (i.e. in “Line of sight” - see diagram below). Sometimes, however, reflections and other effects in your home may affect the signal so that some adjustment of either the Sender or Receiver antenna might be necessary to get the best signal.

The UR78A Remote lets you control practically every audio/video product in your home. It has IR technology that lets you control your TV, VCR, Cable and CD or DVD player, and RF technology that lets you control the VR32A wireless receiver/speaker driver. This lets you control, the volume, balance, bass, treble, etc. of the speakers connected to the VR32A from anywhere inside or outside your home.
It can also control an MP3, DVD, and CD player in your PC when used with an additional RF receiver and software (see page 17).

The UR78A remote can also control an MP3, DVD, and CD player in your PC when used with an additional RF receiver and software. You will need to purchase an MR26A receiver which connects to your PC's serial port. You then download the software (called Boom) fr om X10's Web Site (www.x10.com). You will then be able to control a DVD or CD player in your PC as well as being able to control MP3 players such as MusicMatch, RealJukeBox, WinAmp, etc., remotely from anywhere inside or outside your home.
The AUDIO button is also a PC button so to access your PC you just press AUDIO (PC) followed by button 1 (MP3) or button 2 (DVD) or button 3 (CD). You can then use buttons such as Play, Stop, Pause, FF, REW, etc. to control the DVD, CD, or MP3 player in your PC.
When used in conjunction with the VT35A Audio Transmitter, a nd VR32A Audio Receiver/Speaker Driver, you will be able to listen to MP3 files stored in your PC while sitting outside having a barbecue.

The first thing you need to understand is that there are two different devices you need to control your home; Controllers and Modules. Any light or appliance that you want to control is plugged into a Module and that Module is then plugged into a standard AC outlet.
Modules receive commands from Controllers. Examples include the Lamp Module (sold separately). The Transceiver Module (also sold separately) is another example (although it also doubles as a controller as described later).
Controllers are also plugged into standard wall outlets and send commands to Modules over your existing electrical wiring in your home without affecting your electricity in any way.
The Transceiver Module works as a controller when it is used with a remote control such as the UR78A Remote. When the Transceiver Module receives a command from a remote it sends digital signals over your existing house wiring to a Module which receives the signals and executes the command.
The remote uses radio frequency (RF) signals to send commands to the Transceiver module. RF signals can go right through walls, so you can use the remote to control lights or appliances from anywhere in your home.

Each Module has a specific address made up of a House Code (red dial on the face of the Module) and a Unit Code (black dial on the face of the Module).
The Controller first sends an address and then a command on the AC power lines. Only the Module with a matching address will execute the command. If more than one Module has the same address, both Modules will execute the command.
Addresses are set on the Module by turning the two dials on the front of the Module to the desired letter and number (using a small screwdriver or a coin). The House Code is selected from the letters A through P, and the Unit Code is selected from the numbers 1 - 16.

The Transceiver Module (sold separately) receives radio frequency (RF) commands from the UR78A Remote to operate a lamp or appliance plugged into it. The Transceiver Module also passes on commands over your house wiring to control other X10 modules (also sold separately). Note that unlike the Lamp Module you cannot dim or brighten a lamp connected to the Transceiver Module.
You should locate the Transceiver Module centrally in your home for maximum range when controlled by the UR78A Remote.

The Lamp Module (sold separately) can be used to control any incandescent lamp rated up to 300W. It is not suitable for other types of lamp such as fluorescent or energy saving lamps, or lamps which include a dimmer control.
Caution: Do not connect an appliance such as a coffee pot or heater to the Lamp Module. It may damage the module and the appliance and could cause a fire hazard. Use an Appliance Module instead.

The UR78A Remote defaults to House Code A, and in most cases you will not need to change this unless you are experiencing interference from a neighboring X10 system.
1.1.
1. Press and release the X10 button.
1.1.
2.2.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the LED
2.2. indicator lights steadily. Release the Setup button.
3.3.
3. Use the number buttons to enter the
3.3. number equivalent to the chosen House Code (1=A, 2=B ..16=P).
4.4.
4. Press the ENTER button to confirm the House
4.4. Code. The LED turns off.
If you already own an IR Mini Controller, Model IR543, you will need to change the X10 Home Automation code in the UR78A remote to use it. The code for standard X10 RF Home Automation is 999. The code to control the IR Mini Controller is 998. To change the code:
2.2.
2. Press and release
1.1.
1. Press and hold
1.1. SETUP until the LED indicator lights steadily. Release the SETUP button.
2.2. the X10 button.
3.3.
3. Enter 998 to control
3.3. an IR543, IR Mini Controller, or 999 for standard X10 control. The LED turns off after the last digit entered.
Note: The House Code you choose must match the House Code on the Transceiver and Modules you are using it with.

Note: In most cases, you will not need to use the IR Mini Controller to receive commands from the UR78A Remote - the RF Transceiver Module does this for you and has the added advantage of working through walls. You can if you wish control the IR Mini Controller and the Transceiver Module at the same time. To do this store code 999 under the X10 key and store 998 under any other key (except TV). See page 27 for more info on using an IR543.

• Check that the Module has the same House Code as the Transceiver Module.
• Try plugging the Module into a dif ferent outlet.
Note: if you use an RF Transceiver (such as the RR501 or TM751) to
control X10 Modules, you will be able to control up to 16 Modules. With a Transceiver, when you press 1-6-ON you tur n on Module number 16. However, if you use an IR543, when you press 1-6-ON you turn on Modules 1 AND 6. The IR543 can only control 10 Modules (1-9 plus 0=10).
