I want to add some additional light switches to control an existing LW12 dimming module, which has its own local momentary switch (and does not transmit X10). I was thinking of using TMD4 micro-module transmitters to do this.
Is there a problem, though ? I worry that the TMD4 will maintain its own opinion of the on/off state of the LW12 module and not know about what the local switch is doing. So if the LW12 is off, but the TMD4 thinks it's on, then activating the TMD4 switch sends an OFF and nothing happens. A second press would be needed to turn the module on.
I assume that this is why there is an LWM1 module which transmits its local actions, but it also needs a Neutral connection which I don't have available.
Am I being dim (slight pun intended) ... ?
Thanks!
Tony.
