| Easy Setup
Plug your favorite lamp into the
Lamp Module. Plug an appliance (like the aforementioned
coffeepot) into the
Wireless Link Module™. Right out of the box
you can use the PalmPad to turn these two devices on and
off.
But you want to be able to do home
control while day trading. So download the Software
from the Web site, double-click to install, and use the
virtual PalmPad ™ to turn your light and your
appliance on and off.
No messy wiring, no cutting out
wallboard! And best of all, the FireCracker™ kit is
fully compatible with your voice-activation
software -- simply tell the
coffeepot to start brewing and it will!
Firecracker Basics
Using the software, you send
commands to the computer interface that you've plugged
into the back of your computer. The interface sends
commands to the link module, which translates the
wireless signal into an X10 signal.
X10 signals travel through the
household wiring to the lamp and appliance modules
you've connected to your lights and appliances. One
click of the mouse, and your lights and appliances
respond like magic!
If you need to leave your
computer, simply slip the PalmPad™ Remote into your
pocket. It can control the same 16 sets of lights and
appliances your computer does, giving you the
FireCracker convenience without being at your computer!
Easy Expansion
You can expand your powers by
adding lamp or appliance
modules; the FireCracker Kit can control up to 16
sets of lights and appliances. Create a true "home
network" where you can run your household devices
straight from the computer. FireCracker is compatible
with all other X10
home control products -- which means there are
thousands of applications limited only by your
imagination.
