Troubleshooting
IfX10Modulesdon’trespondtotheCommandCenter:
• Check the Housecode on the Command Center is set to the same Housecode as your
Modules.
• Check the position of the 1-4/5-8 switch on theCommand Center.
Ifsomemodulesworkbutothersdon't:
• Try plugging the Module or theCommand Center into a different outlet.
Intercomsystems
Intercom systems which send voice signals over existing electrical wiring may interfere
with the operation of the Command Center when the intercom is in use. If the Intercom
system has its own separate wiring it will not cause a problem.
