The DIX2 is an A-10 micro module
Transmitter that is wired behind momentary ('bell' press) switches
(4 max). The switches connected to the DIX2 effectively become A-10
Transmitters, enabling them to control your X-10/A-10 Receivers and
Interfaces. The DIX2 is similar to the DIX1 except that it controls
only two X-10 addresses. However, the DIX2 has two connections per
address, enabling one momentary switch to be used for on/bright
commands and another to be used for off/dim commands. The DIX2 works
best with 2-way momentary rocker switches as a momentary press up is
used for on/bright and a momentary press down on the same switch
sends off/dim commands. Note, the DIX2 does not directly control a
load - it is an A-10 Transmitter only.
