Known devices which can cause attenuation are:

• PC Monitors

• PCs with heavy internal power supplies

• Old Televisions

• Copiers

• Fluorescent Lights

• Gas Discharge Lamps (Energy Saving Lamps)

3. Some (old) devices are able to disturb the signal by transmitting noise on the power line.

Because the Marmitek X-10 signals are transmitted on 120 kHz, only noise on or near this

frequency will have influence on the range. When you use a FM10 Filter to connect this

device to the power line, the noise will be filtered.

4. The Marmitek X-10 protocol has several mechanism to avoid modules to be switched on

or off by other sources than your Marmitek X-10 Controllers. However, it is possible that

the Marmitek X-10 signals are disturbed by e.g. baby phones which are in TALK mode

(continuous transmission). When these kind of signals are present on the power line it is

possible that the Marmitek X-10 signals will not come through.

5. The mains do not stop at the front door of your home. Everything that is attached to mains

nearby your home can have influence on Marmitek X-10 signals (e.g. heavy machinery).

If you think that your system is influenced by devices out of your house, it is advisable to

install FD10 Phase Coupler/Filter on each phase entering the house. These filters will block

signals coming into or going out of your house, but will also match the impedance for the

mains. Hereby make your house Marmitek X-10 compatible for these units. The FD10’s will

not only filter but will also couple the phases (please see 1).

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Marmitek X-10 Plug-in Filter FM10. This is a Plug-in

Filter to filter noise from TVs, photocopiers, motors, switched-mode supplies, etc. The FM10

is used to prevent the Marmitek X-10 PLC signals (Power Line Carrier) being absorbed by

equipment with a damping effect on these mains signals.

INSTALLATION

Insert the plug of the equipment to be filtered into the Module.

Plug the Module into a wall socket.

FREQENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the reason for modules to switch on/off spontaneously?

It is possible that a Marmitek X-10 System is installed at one of your neighbours using the same

House Code. To solve this problem try to change the House Code of your system, or have FD10

Phase Coupler/Filter installed at your incoming mains.
