Introduction
Conformity of use:
The Mini Timer must be used inside only. Avoid humidity or extreme
temperatures. Disconnect the unit during thunderstorms from mains
and other connected equipment to avoid damage.
Caution: To reduce risk of electric shock, do not disassemble any
part of the Mini Timer. No user-serviceable parts are inside. If you
spill liquid on it, disconnect the unit from the mains outlet to prevent
possible fire or shock hazard and consult authorized service
personnel. Use only the supplied power supply.

BMB HOME 6rev. 01-10-05
Defective parts must be replaced by original spare parts only and
repairs must be done by authorized service personnel. No
guarantee or liability will be accepted for any damage caused due
to incorrect use of the equipment supplied, other than indicated in
this owner’s manual.
What it does:
The Mini Timer plugs into any AC outlet in your home and works
like a digital alarm clock. Its internal buzzer lets you cancel the
alarm by pressing any key. The alarm buzzer sounds again 10
minutes later.
You can program your lamp and appliance modules to turn lights
and appliances on and off at preset times. The security mode on
your Mini Timer lets you automatically vary your programmed time
each day.
How it works:
The Mini Timer transmits signals over your house wiring to your X10
Home Automation modules. There are Lamp-/Dimmer-and
Appliance Modules available (ask your dealer for more info).
Setting up the Mini Timer
Connect the power supply to the Mini Timer and plug
the lead of the power supply into an AC outlet.
Installing the batteries:
Insert two AA batteries (not supplied) in the battery
compartment to maintain your settings in the event of a power
failure. If the battery is low, dead, or has not been installed, the low
battery indicator will appear in the display. The backlight and the
buzzer do not operate when the unit is running on the backup
batteries.
Battery Cautions:
Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury
them. Do not mix batteries of different types, capacities and
chemistry. Use only fresh batteries of the required size and
recommended type.
If you do not plan to use your mini timer for several weeks, remove
the batteries.

Using the Mini Timer
Controlling X10 Home Automation Modules:
Follow the steps below to make sure you can control your modules
before you program your Mini Timer.
•Install and set up all of your X10 Home Automation Modules
using the instructions provided with these.
•Set all of your modules to the same House Code as the Mini
Timer (default is A).
•Set each module to a Unit Code between 1 and 8.
•Set the MODE switch on the Mini Timer to the RUN position.
•To turn on a module, set the SELECTOR switch to 1-4 or 5-8
and press the ON button that corresponds to the module you
want to control. To turn off a module press the OFF button that
corresponds to the module you want to control.
•Press an ON button for a connected Lamp-/Dimmer-Module,
then adjust brightness using the DIM/BRIGHT + and –key.
•To turn on all lights connected to Lamp-/Dimmer-Modules
(with the same House Code as the Mini Timer), press the ALL
LIGHTS ON button. Appliance Modules will not respond.
•To turn off all lights and appliances connected to any kind of

Setting the alarm
With the WAKE switch in the ON position, setting a programmed
event for module 1 also sets the internal alarm buzzer.
A bell icon will show in the display to indicate that a time is set for
the buzzer.
You can turn the buzzer off by sliding the WAKE switch to the OFF
position. You can turn off your bedside lamp by pressing the OFF
button for module with Unit Code 1.
If you don’t want to use the wake up feature, leave the WAKE
switch in the OFF position. This will not affect any programs you
have entered for module 1.
If the WAKE switch is OFF and you place the MODE switch in the
CLOCK SET position, you will suspend both the buzzer and any
times you have set for module 1.
Cancel/Snooze the alarm
When the alarm sounds at the time you have set, you can cancel it
in one of two ways:
•To cancel the alarm, slide the WAKE switch to the OFF
position. Slide the switch back to on if you want to resume the
alarm time.
•To snooze the alarm, press any key. The buzzer remains off
for 10 minutes. Modules that are set to Unit Code 1 will turn on
when the buzzer sounds. These modules will remain on after
you set the WAKE switch to OFF or if you cancel the buzzer by
using the snooze feature. Press the OFF button for number 1
to turn the module(s) off. Or, remember, you can program the
module(s) to turn off later.
Suspend the alarm
To suspend the program for module 1, turn the WAKE switch to
OFF, and set the MODE switch to the CLOCK SET position. The
programmed time for both the alarm buzzer and the bedside lamp
will be suspended.

BMB HOME 10 rev. 01-10-05
You still can control modules instantly with the MODE switch in the
CLOCK SET position. Remember to set the MODE switch back to
the RUN position and WAKE switch back to ON to resume the
alarm setting.
Programming a timed event
•Set the MODE switch to the PROG. SET/REVIEW position.
•Set the Module SELECTOR switch to 1-4 or 5-8.
•Advance the TIME + key to the desired time. Hold it down to
reach the desired time faster. If you go too far, press -to go
back.
•Press ON or OFF for the Unit Code for which you want to
program a time.
•Set the MODE switch back to RUN.
For example: If you set your programmed time to 14:45, and then
press the ON button for module 2, you will program the module set
to Unit Code 2 to turn on at 14:45 everyday. If you set your
programmed time to 7:00, and then press the OFF button for module
2, you will program the module set to Unit Code 2 to turn off at 7:00
everyday.
You can program a total of 64 On or Off times. These are
distributed between the eight Unit Codes (selected with the four
ON/OFF buttons). If you try to set a programmed time, and the
memory is full, the display will read FULL. To remove this, press the
CLEAR button.
If FULL is displayed when you try to enter a programmed time, you
have already used up all the available memory. Cancel one or more
of your set times by pressing a number ON or OFF button, and
press CLEAR to clear that event. Program another time for the
selected module.
Setting a timed event to occur once
To program your timed event to occur only once, repeatedly press
the MODE button until ONCE shows in the display.
