XTS36 Touch Screen

Introduction
XTS36 The XTS36 is designed to allow the user to fully control his X10 system via the Touch Panel. The Touch panel allows for manual control of each individual module as well as full scene control and multiple scheduled events using our user friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI). The unit is self contained and battery backed up in case of power failure, thereby eliminating the need to have a computer running in the background. The system is comprised of three sections including the Touch Screen, the X10 serial interface and the PC based Lighting Configuration software package. The XTS36 is a full featured colour 3.6 inch VGA Touch Panel unit. The device features an active matrix wide viewing angle LCD display with exceptional brightness and high contrast. The Touch Screen is available in two versions one mounting in a standard 2 gang electrical box and another in a table top enclosure. An IR remote option is available allowing control of scenes via a handheld IR remote control

X10 Serial Interface The CM11 serial interface is manufactured by X10 and allows the XTS36 Touch panel to communicate to the power line.

Software Overview
Configuration Software package The Lighting Configuration Software package is a PC based package that allows the user or installer to easily configure the Touch panel. The SW package is comprised of five sections including Modules, Scenes, Schedules, Location and Reports. Location Location allows the user or installer to define the location via a list of cities or latitude and longitude. This information is used to calculate dawn and dusk settings for the city as specified by the user or installer. Modules The Modules section allows the user to easily assign names and node addresses to each individual module as well as define whether the switch is a dimmer, appliance or shutter type, if the module is able to respond to the extended X10 format and uses the bidirectional protocol. Scenes The Scenes section allows the user or installer to create and assign scene names by simply dragging and dropping selected modules from the list. Scenes can be defined to switch selected modules on or off as well as to specific dimming levels. Schedules The Schedules section allows the user or installer to create and assign names to multiple schedules by simply dragging and dropping either selected modules or whole scenes. The Scheduling software has several powerful features including dawn and dusk settings as well as daily, weekdays, weekends and settings for specific dates. Multiple schedules can be downloaded and enabled individually via the Touch Screen. Reports The report function allows the user or installer to get a printed report of the Modules, Scenes and Schedules.

How to Install
The Touch Screen should be removed from the box and the protective plastic coverings should be removed (there may be protective plastic on the front of the bezel as well as on the top of the LCD display. Be very careful when removing the protective covering of the LCD display). Installation includes the connection of the 4 wires to the Touch screen connector. In the case of the table top enclosure a standard CAT5 cable is connected directly from the RJ45 connector on the enclosure to the RJ45 connector on the IES Serial Adapter. In the case of a wall mount unit the 4 CAT5 wires are connected to the 4 wire terminal block on the rear of the Touch panel. The Terminals are marked as follows and should be connected to the CAT 5 Cable colours as listed. Circuit item V+ GND TX RX 568A (Preferred) Green Brown/White Brown Green/White 568B Orange Brown/White Brown Orange/White Serial Adapter Pin 2 Pin 7 Pin 8 Pin 1

Note. Wiring should be checked and Voltmeter should be used to verify +12V and Ground before connecting to the Touch Screen. A DB9 cable is then connected from the serial adapter to the X10 CM11. In addition the supplied power supply must also be connected to the serial adapter.
