To set the end of the pause, press the S3 button and hold it down until the status LED starts to
blink red. Then press the S1 button to specify the number of hours (e.g. pressing zero times =
00:00 / pressing six times = 06:00). Then release the buttons. The red status LED will then return
to green after a short time; this indicates that normal operations have resumed.
Note: To disable the pause feature, set the start and end of the pause to 00:00. First press S2 until
the status LED illuminates red. Then release S2 (S1 is not pressed, so the time is set to 0:00).
Wait until the status LED is green. Press the S3 button until the status LED illuminates red. Then
release S3 and wait until the LED turn green.

1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Press and hold both the S2 and S3 buttons.
3. Connect the power supply.
4. The Status LED acknowledges the reset to factory settings by rapidly flashing

Stored default settings:
Sunrise start:
08:00
Sunset start:
21:00
Pause:

Brightness of night light: 0%
Transition period:

Note: When the factory default settings are loaded, the internal clock is set to 00:00 hours and
must then be correctly set to the real time.
9. Time-lapse function (special mode):
The BC16 has a time-lapse mode that can be used for testing purposes or for checking your
specified values. When it is enabled, the clock runs several times faster and shows the specified
light program in fast motion in 60 seconds. Instead of the standard transition periods used in the
normal operating mode, shorter (only a few seconds) transition times are used. This can be
enabled or disabled during operations. When the time-lapse function is disabled, the clock
resumes running with its previously set time, so that it does not need to be set. You can enable
and disable the time-lapse function as follows:
Press the S1 button briefly five times in succession in order to switch the time-lapse function ON
or OFF.
If the time-lapse function is enabled, the status LED flashes alternately red/green. Buttons S2 and
S3 are disabled in time-lapse mode.
