AT4/AT4B - Annual Event Timer 

Overview: 

These units are extremely versatile 24 Hour 365 Day Event Timers designed to support a wide range of applications. 
Such applications include: Home and Building Automation, Security, Access Control, Lighting Control, Etc. 
AT4/AT4B is equipped with four independently controlled form “C” relay contacts that provide many latching and/or 
momentary operations during a program schedule of your choice. The EE prom memory allows for programming of unit 
prior to/or during field installation. Events may be set for single or multiple operations on a daily and/or weekly 
schedule. The block programming feature enables repeating an event on any combination of consecutive days. AT4/AT4B 
will compensate for daylight savings time if desired. It automatically adjusts for leap year. Individually selected holiday 
exceptions can be programmed to over-ride regularly scheduled events. 

Specifications: 

•  12 to 24 volts AC or DC operation. 
•  Stand-by current: 20mA with relays off combined with 40mA for each relay on. 
•  Four (4) Form “C” relay contacts are rated 10amp @120VAC/28VDC. 
•  Each relay operates independently. 
•  EE Prom memory protects against loss of programming due to power failure.

Programming Instructions 

(pgs. 4-6) 

2.  Connect 12 to 24 Volts AC or DC to terminals marked [-DC+]. (when using DC carefully observe polarity). 
3.  Connect 12VDC battery (optional) to terminals marked [BAT-] and [BAT+] . 
4.  Insert lithium battery (not supplied or required. Altronix part# LB2032) in battery holder as shown in 

(Fig. 1, pg. 4)

With the (+) positive side facing up. 

Note: 

Lithium Battery (LB2032) must only be installed after initial power up of AT4/AT4B. 

5. Connect devices to be controlled to dry outputs marked RLY1 [NC, NO, C] - RLY4 [NC, NO, C] 

Note: It is important when connecting DC powered electromechanical devices such as Mag Locks, Electric 
Strikes, Bells, Relays, etc. to install a catch diode across the pos (+)  and neg (-) terminals of the device. 
Connect diode as close to the device as possible with the banded side facing the pos (+) terminal. This will 
reduce the possibility of interference. 

6. Program clock and desired event schedule (
