Helpful Tips
- When set to “ON”, the timer will provide continual power to attached devices until the timer is switched to “OFF”, or to any of the other operating modes.
- In the sensor ( ****dusk-to-dawn) mode, temporary light sources like headlights, porch lights 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 timer will shut off until darkness is restored. The improvement avoids the flickering.
- Once programming activates at dusk in the 2hr, 4hr, 6hr, or 8hr mode, the program cycle will complete before the timer resets. Headlights, porch lights, street lamps and other external lighting sources will not interfere with the active timer program.
