Your computer portion of the hardware is now set-up to control the lights and 
appliances in your home!  To complete the hardware setup, you need to install 
Modules for the devices that you wish to control. 
 
The first time you run ActiveHome it will load a file called MYHOUSE.x10. 
MYHOUSE will show a graphical representation of a Lamp Module and Appliance 
Module. The Lamp Module has been named "My Lamp Module" and the Appliance 
Module is named "My Appliance." 
 
"My Lamp Module" is already set to address A2 (Housecode A, Unit Code 2 located 
on the bottom center of the "on screen" module). This should correspond to the 
setting of the physical Lamp Module that you will install. 
 
The "My Appliance" on screen module is set to Housecode A and Unit Code 1 to 
correspond to the setting of the physical Appliance Module that you will install. 
 
Make sure the Address Dials on the face of the Modules are set correctly. The red 
dial should be set to A on both Modules. The black dial on the Lamp Module should 
be set to 2 and the black dial on the Appliance Module should be set to a 1. If they 
are not set correctly, you can reset the dials with a small screw-driver or coin.
