Hello,

I was just wondering what would happen if I plugged a lamp into the receptacle on the bottom of the TM751 if I have 3 wireless cameras and each camera has it's own motion sensor. Would the lamp go on every time motion was detected per motion sensor?

If so, is there a way to use the TM751 outlet without it being activated by motion given my current setup? I'm thinking of buying another camera package that includes another TM751 and I already have one so I was wondering what other uses it might have.....like do I need another one and would I use it for anything? :-\

The receptacle on the bottom of the TM751, turns On and Off at the unit #1 of whatever house code it is set at.

The cameras turn each other OFF in the "group of four" simply make the Group.... 4 through 8, or 8-12, or 12-16.

Ok so I can use the TM751 as an outlet, in which case it would be in setting A1, and then the cameras could be in A5,A6 and A7 and everything should work OK?

Note that the TM751 outlet responds only to RF - it will not respond to X10 signals received over the AC power line.



Yesterday it worked.
Today it doesn't work.
X10 on Windows is like that.

So the lamp plugged into it will just work like a normal lamp, on and off?

Yes. And like Charles Sullivan said... only from a RF type remote device.

Like the 8 Unit ScanPad Remote which I already have?  :)

Hello,
i plugged a lamp into my tm751 and it turns on with my camera remote, but the only way to turn off the lamp is by pressing the on/off button on the tm751. I thought I could turn the lamp OFF with the cam remote as well. Is this normal? ???

The TM751 should turn OFF (and ON) on the #1 (unit) code of whatever house code it is set at.

Dave,
I have the lamp plugged into the tm751 and it's A1. My 3 cameras are A2, A3, A4. What am I doing wrong if my camera remote will not turn the lamp on and off?

Is the transceiver "clicking"? You should be able to hear the TM751 click ON and OFF.

It's OK I got it working! Thanks anyway!
Just one more question. If I got a socket rocket for a porch light, what are the options for TIMING the porch light to come on at specified times?
