Installation and User Guide
Programmable Wall Switch
The RPLS530A/RPLS531A switch can be used in a single-pole or 3-way
installation with the following types of lighting:
• Incandescent
• Halogen
• Low-voltage halogen with transformer
• Fluorescent
The RPLS530A/RPLS531A switch cannot be used with a load below 40
W, a load above 500 W or a motor.
Cut power at the circuit breaker to avoid electric shock.
Remove the existing switch. (For a 3-way installation, identify and
label the wire that is connected to the “common” screw.)
Install the new switch (refer to the appropriate section below).
Apply power at the circuit breaker.
SINGLE-POLE INSTALLATION
Connect wires "2" and "C" of the RPLS530A/RPLS531A to the line
(120 V) wire.
EXISTING 3-WAY INSTALLATION
Connect wire "C" of the RPLS530A/RPLS531A to the "common" wire,
identified when removing the old switch. Connect the other two
RPLS530A/RPLS531A wires to the two remaining wires.
At the other 3-way switch, connect the jumper wire between the "com-
mon" screw and the screw where wire "1" of the RPLS530A/RPLS531A
is connected.
NEW 3-WAY INSTALLATION
The jumper wire is not required in this installation. A single-pole switch
can be used as the other switch in a 3-way installation.
Pry the switch door open from the
bottom using a small screwdriver.
Ensure the
ON/OFF
selector is set to
ON.
Reset the switch using a paper clip.
0:00

MO
will flash.
If the display is blank:
•
Ensure the
ON/OFF
selector is prop-
erly engaged in the
ON
position. Push it to the right using a small
screwdriver.
•
If the programmable switch controls a lamp equipped with a built-in
On/Off switch, ensure the lamp switch is set to On.
•
Ensure the light bulb is not burned out and is tightly screwed in its socket.
EXISTING 3-WAY INSTALLATION
If either switch does not work properly, rewire the jumper between the
"common" screw and the other screw.
WARNING
: Before replacing the light bulb, place the
ON/OFF
selector in
the
OFF
position. Failure to do so might damage the switch.
NOTE
: The switch displays the time in 24-hour format by default or fol-
lowing a reset.
To change to 12-hour format (or vice versa), proceed as follows:
a) Press one of the control buttons to ensure the
MAN
or
AUTO
indicator is displayed.
b) Press the
MIN
and
HOUR
buttons simultaneously and brieftly
(
0:00
display = 24-hour,
12:00
display = 12-hour ).
Set the time using the
HOUR
and
MIN
buttons. If you have selected
the 12-hour format, ensure that
PM
appears on the screen when an
afternoon time is displayed.
Set the day by using the
DAY
