Essential Info

You already use a remote control to control your home entertainment system, so why not use that same remote to control your lighting? You'll be able to dim the lights to your optimal movie-watching level without getting off your comfortable couch, thanks to the Home Theater Lighting Control Starter Kit, an easy-to-install home automation starter kit that uses X10 commands to turn lights on or off or dim them. This kit includes a five-device universal remote control, an X10 console that delivers commands from the remote to your connected lamps, and two plug-in lamp modules. The 5-in-1 RF/IR Learning Remote requires four AAA batteries (sold separately).

    Universal Remote Control Lights As Well As A/V Components
    You can get rid of the remotes cluttering your coffee table, thanks to the 5-in-1 RF/IR Learning Remote. This universal learning remote will control your television, DVD player, VCR, stereo, and satellite receiver, and it also sends IR commands to the Infrared X10 Command Console, which converts those commands into X10 powerline signals to control lights anywhere in the house.

    Control Any Number of X10 Lamps Using A/V Remote
    Plug the Infrared X10 Command Console in, and when you press the 5-in-1 RF/IR Learning Remote's X10 button, the console will deliver your X10 commands to the lamps plugged into the two LampLinc V2 Dimmers. Turn the lights on or off or dim them using this remote. You can also expand your X10 system by installing X10 modules, wall switches, thermostats or drape controllers — you'll never need to leave your couch again! The keypad on top of the console also provides direct control of up to eight X10 devices, including On/Off, Dim/Bright and All Lights On/Off.

    Included Lamp Modules are INSTEON Enabled
    The two included LampLinc V2 Dimmers will respond to your X10 commands to control your lights, but these plug-in modules are also enabled with INSTEON technology, which uses both the existing electrical wiring in your home as well as wireless RF signals to create the most reliable network available.
