Connecting a Four-Hour Timer to the LDS API
This accessory is typically installed outdoors for a gardener or landscaper to remotely and manually put the LDS in
standby (ignore water flow) mode for the length of time the timer is rotated to.
• Connect the red wire from the timer to IN- (below STANDBY) on the API.
• Connect the black wire from the timer to –REF on the API.
• Place a jumper from IN+ (below STANDBY) to +REF.
• The yellow arrow dial on the API should face 2.
• When the timer is activated you should see the Leak Defense control panel switch from Home or Away to
Standby. When the timer runs out, the Leak Defense should go back to the original state of Home or Away.
NOTE:
This applies a 12-volt signal across the terminals IN- and IN+ (below standby), when the timer is active.
