WebIO supports several X10 powerline transceivers
Supported X10 powerline transceivers include:
- The
Smart Home Powerlinc serial interface transceiver (with RJ12 6pin modular
connector) in TW523 mode. With this transceiver the WebIO also receives
power from the Powerlinc, so no extra power supply is needed.
- The
X10 Pro PSC05 (TW523) transceiver. An additional 9-12 Volt DC, center pin
positive, power supply is required to power the WebIO. Along with a
jumper changed within the WebIO.
- The
PL513/PCS04 transmitter. With the PL513 WebIO can transmit X10 signals
but not receive message replies from 2-way X10 modules. In addition a
separate power supply is required for WebIO.
- The
XM10 transceiver for 230VAC 50Hz power in UK countries. In addition a separate
power supply is required for WebIO.

WebIO Power Jumper (J6)
WebIO can be supplied with power when using the Smart Home Powerlinc II X10 transceiver with WebIO,
such that an additional power supply is not required to power WebIO via WebIO's power barrel connector.
To enable power to WebIO from the Powerlinc, WebIO jumper J6 must be positioned, such that the two of three J6 pins
closest to the X10 modular connector are shorted. (see picture of red jumper in Powerlinc powered position)
To access the WebIO power jumper, the top cover must be removed.
Be sure to disconnect WebIO from power and/or X10 transceiver before openening up WebIO.
A long nose pliers is ideal for moving WebIO jumper. The jumper maybe a different color then pictured.
You should discharge any static electric charge you may have before working with WebIO.
