GIX programming

Post by mvkooten »

Please help, I can't get my Xanura GIX programmed.

With everything I try, the led always lights up 2 times (if it lights up). I can't even program the address.

I've got a Xanura GIX and a Marmitek Easycontrol 8.
Can somebody please tell me step by step what I should push and how long I must wait.

Hi, thanx for replying!

I've seen that topic, but it didn't help.

The GIX manual say's the following:
Turn un programming mode (this works fine, the leds stays on)
Setup: 2 x address, number flashing 2.

The remotecontrol address is C, tested with the lamp modules.
I want to set the address of the GIX to C5.
After programming the GIX, I put the blue wire against the brown wire to test the GIX.

<b>I've tried the following:</b>
<i>All options I tried with and without waiting 1 second between the commands.</i>
Turn on program modus
X10 button
5

Turn off program modus

Turn on program modus
X10 button

One thing I didn't mention:
I want to control LW12 with my GIX.

The LW12 isn't a Xanura product.

Strange, sounds good. I use an old remote control (HR10) to program my Xanura modules. I also use the TM13 which I put on the same channel. I Hold the program button for about 2 seconds till it continuously lighting up. After that I give the appropriate command 2 times, the module is confirming by blinking. After this I push the program button again to leave the program mode and your set!
I think this is the same you do?

Yes, it's very strange.
Do you have a GIX?
What exact commands do you give?

The GIX is in another group (andere groep in de meterkast, geen idee of dit 'group' is in het Engels...) could that be the problem?

And putting the blue and brown wires together would turn on/off the C5 module?

Are you using a system with 3 fases without a fasecoupler?
If so, then your GIX will not receive the programming commands.

Connect the GIX to the same group as your programmingunit and try again.

Now in Dutch.

Maak je gebruik van een 3 fasen systeem zonder een fasenkoppelaar?
Zo ja, dan zal de GIX de programmeer commando's niet ontvangen.

Sluit de GIX aan op dezelfde groep als de programmeermodule en probeer het nogmaals.
