outlet it has the ability to receive Radio Frequency (RF) signals from the remotes and the
ability to send messages through existing house wiring to all receivers that are dialed to the
same house code.
It is also used to control *incandescent lamps only, rated up to 500 watts, connected to the
plug receptacle at the bottom of the MESSENGER HUB. Note: For restrictions and
instructions see MESSENGER HUB section.
*Do not use fluorescent, low wattage, energy saving and halogen bulbs.
The INDOOR REMOTE sends Radio Frequency (RF) signals to the MESSENGER HUB.
These signals can go through walls, so you can use this remote to control lights (or
appliances with approved appliance receiver only) from anywhere in or around your home.
NOTE: Walls and other obstructions may reduce the effective range of the RF signal.

HUB. It is used to control *incandescent lamps only rated up to 300 watts. Note: For
restrictions and instructions see LAMP RECEIVER section.

controlled by a wall switch.
*Do not use fluorescent, low wattage, energy saving and halogen bulbs.
