Oh. Guess it helps to RTFM.
In my defense, if only slightly, I didn't receive a manual.

"You can also trip the PowerHorn from any other X-10 Controller, which 
is useful in panic situations. It can be set to respond to any one of 
256 X-10 codes available (16 Housecodes x 16 Unit Codes). You simply 
press All Lights On, then All Lights Off, 4 or 5 times, or press the 
Unit Code corresponding to the number set on the PH508 then press On, 
then Off 4 or 5 times."

Does that imply that if I sent the set ON/set OFF sequence 4 or 5 times, 
with a slight delay between, it would fire?

But then, how do I shut it off, short of pulling it out of the wall?
