You cannot control RF devices using your 5200. The RF is simply to transmit codes to a device called an "RF Extender" which then converts them back to IR.
To control X10 you need an X10 controller that can receive IR such as the IR543 or IR543-AH.
[Exception to above: European Prontos/Marantz can be set up to control a limited number of devices directly provided they use the same RF carrier frequency.]
