Group Types: 

When controlling more then eight loads or when controlling any loads from a time 

schedule, groups are required . GROUPS describe what loads are controlled and how they are controlled .

MOMENTARY ON

“On Mode” more than 8 loads .

MOMENTARY OFF

“Off Mode” more than 8 loads .

MOMENTARY MIXED

“Mixed Mode” more than 8 loads .

MAINTAIN

Used by time schedules and photocells controlling more than 8 

loads .  When the GROUP is On, the loads are On, and when the 

GROUP is Off, the loads are Off .

MA TIMER

Usually used only with Time Schedules . When the GROUP is On, 

the loads are On .  When the GROUP is Off, any switch controlling 

any loads within the GROUP may only turn those loads On for a 

programmed time .

MA BLINK

Uses all of the features of the MA TIMER and adds a “blink 

warning” prior to shutting loads off . 

Control Types: 

”Control Types” describes how loads are controlled .

TOGGLE

 

Toggle up to 8 loads On or Off .

ON MODE

Up to 8 loads On only .

OFF MODE

Up to 8 loads Off only .

MIXED MODE

Also known as an “interlock”—this turns one set of loads On and 

another set of loads Off .

MAINTAIN

Loads are On during a closure and Off when the closure is opened;  

similar to a wall switch—used by photocells .

GROUPs (1-32)

To control more than 8 loads, or when programming a time schedule, 

always use GROUPs .
