Installation Instructions

• The device must be mounted in a vertical position with the receptacle facing downward and with the receptacle at least 2 feet above the ground level to prevent water immersion.
• Settings can be made manually on the timer or remotely using the transmitter. The transmitter can operate the timer from up to 100 feet.
• Select the “OFF” setting to turn off all attached devices.
• Select the “ON” setting to turn on all attached devices.
• Select the “Sensor” (timer) or the “ ” (transmitter) setting to turn on the attached devices at dusk and turn off the attached devices at dawn.
• Select the 2Hrs, 4Hrs, 6Hrs or 8Hrs setting to specify the amount of time the connected devices will be on after dusk.
• The chosen setting will repeat every 24 hours.
• Plug the power cord into a 3-conductor GFCI receptacle.

Operation Tips

• When set to ON, the receiver will provide continual power to all connected devices until the receiver is switched to OFF or switched to any of the other operating modes.
• In the sensor ( ) mode, temporary light sources like headlights, porch lights, streetlights and other external light sources will not interfere with the photocell function unless the external light source is on for more than 15 minutes. In that case, the receiver will shut off until darkness is restored. This function has been implemented to avoid flickering, or constant on/off for all connected devices.
• Once sensor ( ) mode activates at dusk in conjunction with the 2hr, 4hr, 6hr, or 8hr mode, the program cycle will complete before the timer resets. Headlights, porch lights, streetlights and other external light sources will not interfere with the active program.
• In case of power failure, the timer will stop operating when the power goes out. Once power is restored, the desired setting will need to be reset.
