IH5505 - IN WALL APPLIANCE MODULE AW12
Features
  • Small enough (46 x46 x17 mm) to fit into a wallbox behind a standard wallswitch.
  • Works with any X10 controllers
Use & Applications

The AW12 Micro Module can be mounted behind any standard wallswitch , even most designer switches.
It is an X10 receiver module that can be controlled by any X10 controller or remote control sending X10 signals. The internal relay can also be tripped by external latched or momentary action wall switches.
The AW12 reacts to the standard X10 commands that are: "All Units On", "All Units Off", "All Lights Off" from any X-10 controller set to its house code regardless of unit code or alternatively individual unit control by "On", "Off".
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.

The unit will accept either momentary acting key or a standard wall switch with latching action. All key closures must be to live.
If a momentary key is used, the relay changes state each time the key is pressed, as long as the key press lasts for less than 1.75 seconds.
If a standard wall switch with latching action is used, it is assumed the keypress will last for more than 1.75 seconds. In this case the relay changes state on both the closure and release.
This type of response will allow the unit to also perform 2-way control if 2 changeover latching switches are connected in series - as would be the case with 2 way switching.
