The FireCracker Computer Interface sends Wireless Radio Frequency (RF) signals from your PC to an X10 Transceiver  
(TM751 included). The Transceiver then passes the signals onto your house wiring to control lights or appliances around your  
home. You plug lights and appliances into X10 Modules (sold separately).  
1. Set the TM751 Transceiver to Housecode A. Plug a lamp or  
appliance into the TM751. Plug the TM751 into an AC outlet  
(use one near your PC for now).  
For more information right-click on your mouse to access the  
extensive on-line help. This also accesses the Test Communica-  
tions menu, which lets you change the COM port that the  
FireCracker works with. You can also print labels from here to  
match those on the on-screen PalmPad remote and place them  
on a physical PalmPad (sold separately). You can also turn on or  
off sound effects that occur when you press buttons. Persons  
with physical disabilities who have software that can access  
their keyboard can simply “type” A 1 ON, for example, to turn on  
any X10 Module.  
2. Plug the FireCracker into your  
computer’s serial port. If something  
was already plugged into this port,  
plug it into the FireCracker.
