AM12 & LM12

["Paul Smith" <wheelbarrowhandle@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys,

Now that I have some spare time I'm looking to sort out the X10 system
for our home.

All of our lights are low energy bulbs, which flicker when the
modules are off, I know this is because of the return path that is
available.


Plan A was to modify the units to remove local control, but that hasn't
solved the issues.

So my Plan be is to add 240v DPDT relays so that I can have a totally
separate switch circuit for use and leave the other one for the return
path. Now this will work fine, but I have now thought about it and know
that it means the AM units will "Click" twice for each on and
off.

Does anybody know the coil voltage/current used by the relay inside the
AM12. So could replace it with a DPDT relay of my own.

Since all these modules will be central the noise isn't going to be an
issue. But if I can get new relays inside a module then that would be
great as could then still have plug-in units where required.


Thanks


Paul
