Get the Remote Control
(Advanced Edition only)
One way to get the remote control is to purchase it directly from
X-10.com. You will need the CM19A receiver ($50) plus one or both
of the HA12A Palm Pad transmitter (18 functions) ($20) and/or the
KR22A Credit Card transmitter (8 functions) ($20). The direct links
are below. You will want to have your speakers turned OFF if you
go there.

Because I hate sending people to X-10.com - it feels like a slightly
sleazy corner of the Web - you can get the remote directly from
me for the same price. And if you order the white Palm Pad transmitter
from me, I'll even include the labels for the buttons. You can log in and do
that HERE.

You will need the CM19A Receiver, and you should get the HR12A Transmitter
if you are going to be teaching, because you will want the functions
it provides. The small KR22A Transmitter is handy because it fits
easily and unobtrusively in a pocket (the HR12A will squeeze into
a shirt pocket, but it is hardly unobtrusive). However, there are
only 8 functions (plus up/down) available on it, which will be severely
restrictive if you are using many bookmarks.
Just to make your life easier still, there is a template that you
can print to use for the button labels you may have to experiment
to get it to come out the correct size on your printer. I recommend
using MS Paint (it comes with Windows) to display and print it -
it is a very simple program and doesn't try to resize the image.
