X10 UM506 Universal Module

Sep 13, 2015 2 Replies

The UM506 module has a mode where you can get a 2 second operation of the internal relay. Has anyone tried to change this timing? I would like, say maybe 1 second. Any ideas?


I would suspect it was a timer in the PIC firmware, rather than an RC circuit you could change. You'd have to reverse engineer the firmware or cascade an additional circuit between the module and what you're trying to control that had a shorter closed time.

Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking.
