Home >> Home Automation >> X10 >> LM15 "Socket Rocket" module

At last, a UK bayonet lamp module - the LM15 "Socket Rocket".

The LM15EB is a Lamp module which fits into a standard bayonet lamp holder. Provides ON and OFF functions and responds to ALL-LIGHTS-ON and ALL-UNITS-OFF X-10 commands.

The X10 House Code and Address is programmed via an X10 transmitter (IR7243, Mini Controller, Maxi Controller, etc). Note that you cannot use a CM12/CM15 to set the House Code/Address.

Please note the this module is NOT dimmable. It functions as On/Off only.

Setup

Remove the light bulb from its socket and insert the LM15 into the light socket
Insert a light bulb (see Technical Data below for maximum wattage) into the LM15.
Turn the lamp switch on if appropriate
Set any X-10 controller to the House Code and Unit Code you want want the LM15 to respond to
Press the ON button (corresponding to the Unit Code you want the LM15 to respond to) on the X-10 controller three times, at about one second intervals. On the third press, the lamp will turn on signifying that the code has been learnt. To set the code from an IR7243 press the number three times only
To change the code that the LM15 responds to, turn off the power to the unit, turn it back on and repeat the previous step within 30 seconds after applying power
