The Deluxe Transmitter can transmit 3 types of command:
1) Individual Operation - Operates one light only, i.e. the ceiling light in
the family room
2) Zone Operation - Operates one specific zone or area, which consists
of multiple lights, i.e. all lights in the kitchen
3) All On / All Off - Operates all lights in the premises, i.e. all lights in the
TM
house connected with SkylinkHome lighting modules.
Before you can control the lights (or small appliances, etc.) with the trans-
mitter, you may need to program different buttons on the transmitter to
various receiver modules. It is a lot easier if you plan in advance of how
to setup your system. For example, you may list out the lights and their
locations with zone grouping that you plan to include in your lighting system.
