[Coco] plug'n'power controller manual?

[Stephen H. Fischer]

Hi,

I can also confirm that these work fine. I have ~ 10.

Of special note, I control all mine with my IR. TV, VCR, ... remote control.

On the X10 web site there is model "IR543" which receives IR. and sends the 
commands out on the power lines.

I programmed my CoCo 2 plug'n'power two years ago for controlling one light 
so the burglars would think I am at home and go onto the next house.

Still working but the time has drifted a little.

SHF
