Using the Mini Controller Having 16 choices for the Housecode lets you set up several independent systems in one home without interaction among them. Also, you can avoid interference with, or from a neighbor's system by choosing a different Housecode letter. How it works The Mini Controller tells the Modules what to do. Command signals are sent over your existing house wiring to the Module or Modules of your choice. The Lamp Module turns on and off, and dims and brightens any incandescent lamp up to 300 watts. If you can't control ANY modules from the Mini Controller Check that you have power to the outlet for the Mini Controller. If NONE of your Modules work in ANY outlet, not even with the Module and the Mini Controller in the same duplex receptacle (top and bottom) the Mini Controller might be defective.
