AWM2 advice




Someone on the list mentioned the AWM2 units yesterday.. I'd seen
them before but was put of by the price. I'm pretty new to all
this and hadn't appreciated that you could mount them in the
ceiling rose or floor space above. All the current light switches
in our house have *NO* neutral running to them.. (except in the attic
rooms for some reason), but I assume I could mount this device in the
ceiling rose and use the neutral wire from there. The spec says it can
use momentary OR normal switches so I assume I can leave all my switches
as normal ?

What about 2 way switches.. or actually 3way. Our hall light is controlled
>from upstairs hallway). Could I just put this unit in the hall light rose, and
connect
3 switches to it so that anyone of them can turn it on or off. There are
actually another two lights involved, because there is the upstairs light
and the rear upstairs hallway light. I had the electrician wire up a 3x3way
so
that I could control any of these lights from any of the locations. Ideally
I wanted one switch next to the front door to be a MASTER off switch i.e
I could switch off all the hall lights as I left. I didn't know about X10
at the time so this 3 switch 3 way arrangement was the best I could do.
Can I now change something/add something to this switch to make it perform
how I originally wanted ?
