Introduction

This programmer can automatically switch your 

central heating or hot water ON and OFF up to 3 times 

a day, at whatever times you choose. Timekeeping is 

maintained through power interruptions by a non-

replaceable battery designed to last for the lifetime 

of the programmer.  The clock is automatically put 

forward 1 hour at 1:00am on the last Sunday of March 

and back 1 hour at 2:00am on the last Sunday of  

October. The clock is factory pre-set to UK time and 

date, but you can alter the time setting if you wish.

During installation, the installer selects 24 hour, or 

5 day/2day, or 7 day programming and 2 or 3 on/off 

periods per day, via a 4 position DIP switch on the 

back of the unit (see installation instructions). 

IMPORTANT:  These settings should only be 

changed  by  a  qualified  person.  Contact  your 

installer.

IMPORTANT:  This  programmer  is  not  suitable 

for  the  switching  of  devices  greater  than  2  Amp 

rated per channel. (e.g. Not suitable for use as an 

immersion timer) 

 Configuration

When setting time, date or changing programme 

times the first screen displayed indicates the 

configuration as set up by the installer. (See ‘Setting

 Built In Programme

For convenience, the programmer has a built in 

programme which will be satisfactory for many 

people, but which can be changed very easily (see 

section CHANGING PROGRAMME TIMES). Once the 

unit is powered up this built in programme will run. 

If the user changes from the built in programme and 

wishes to return to it, then pressing the reset button
