I'm serious, it's that easy. The PalmPad Remote is your physical interface for toggling the X10 modules On and Off. A slider switch at the bottom of the remote allows you to control an additional 8 devices for a total of 16. There are also dimmer and brightness control buttons for lamp modules that have this feature. Below the label is a dial that you use to set your Housecode .
Every module has matching dial.
You set each module to the same Housecode so that you can control all the modules with one PalmPad. The PalmPad runs on 4 AAA batteries and has a range of 100ft. That means you don't need a line of site to the device you want to turn on or off. I could easily turn the lights on upstairs from my basement office and visa versa. Also included in the FireCracker Kit is the Wireless Link Module.
