3. Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds, the red LED will  flash once. 
    The number of flashes indicates the timer duration:

4. Continue to hold the SET button until it reaches the desired setting. 
    The status will change every 6 seconds, i.e. hold the SET button 
    for another 6 seconds, you will see the number of flashes changes 
    from 1 to 2, 2 to 3, etc. 

Note: Once the number of flashes reaches 5, it will stay at this setting. If 
you would like to go back to other settings, such as 1 minute, release the 
button and repeat from step 3  to start over. 

Once a transmitter (button) is programmed for timer mode, activating this 
programmed transmitter (button) will turn on the light for the specific timer 
interval. 

During a timer count down, if the module receives another signal for 
timer operation, the timer will start again and overrides the previous timer, 
therefore, extending the ON period by another timer duration. 

To stop timer count down, press a programmed button in regular mode.

If a transmitter is programmed under Regular operating mode, the 
programmed transmitter can control the lights either in:

1) On / Off Mode - Allows operating the light either on or off, without 
    dimming function.

2) Dimming Mode - Allows operating the light in on, off or dimming 
    (dim / brighten) modes. Light must be either incandescent light or 
    dimmable compact fluorescent light.

Transmitter can only be used to operate the light when the wall switch is 
in the ON position.  If the wall switch is in the OFF position, no power is 
provided to the Screw-In Dimmer, therefore it cannot receive signals from 
the transmitter.

Besides turning on and off the light, you may also dim the light if the light 
bulb is either incandescent light or dimmable compact fluorescent light. 

To change the brightness, first turn on the light.

Press and hold the programmed button on the transmitter will change its 
brightness.  Hold the button until the desired brightness is reached, 
then release the button.

Press and hold the same button again on the transmitter to change the 
brightness again in the opposite way. When  the desired brightness is 
reached, then release the button. 

Refer to the user's instructions of the transmitter for more detailed 
instructions for dimming operation, as well as other operations such as 
Zone On / Zone Off, All On / All Off etc.

Dimming Mode Operation

The factory default operating mode is On/Off mode. However, if your light 
is dimmable, you may change the operating mode to Dimming Mode. To 
change the operating modes, please follow the instructions below.

1. Turn on the light by the programmed transmitter.

2. Press and hold the button on the transmitter that is programmed to 
    the module in “Regular” Mode for 10 seconds.

3. The light will flash. If it flashes once, that means it is in On / Off Mode. 
    If the light flashes twice, that means it is in Dimming Mode.

4. Repeating step 2 above will toggle the setting between On / Off Mode 
    and Dimming Mode. 

Changing Between On / Off Mode and Dimming Mode

5. REGULAR OPERATING MODE (CONT)

To toggle a receiver between these two states, re-program a transmitter 
twice consecutively to the receiver. Referring to Section 3, repeat the 
programming steps twice consecutively with a transmitter that is already 
programmed, the receiver will change state.

1. Power On - Light On:

1) You may use the wall switch to control the light as usual. When the 
    wall switch is off, the light is off. When the wall switch is on, the light is 
    on. 
2) After a power outage and the electricity comes back, the light will be 
    on if the wall switch is in On position.

2. Power On - Light Off:

1) A special sequence is needed to turn on the light by the wall switch. 
    To turn on the light by the wall switch: 1) Switch On, 2) Switch Off, 
    3) Switch On again within 2 seconds. Light will be on.
2) After a power outage and electricity comes back, the light will be off 
    under most of the circumstances.
 

WARNING
Non-dimmable load has to be always working under ON/OFF mode. 
Using non-dimmable load under dimming mode may damage the 
non-dimmable CFL. 

On / Off Mode Operation

The Screw-In Dimmer allows on / off operation, when the programmed 
button is activate, it will transmit a signal to toggle the status of the light 
status. For example, if a toggle signal is received when the light is off, that 
signal will turn on the light. 

In case the transmitter is not on hand, you can still operate the lighting 
with the wall switch. This receiver offers two optional states after powered 
on, choose the one which fits your requirement.

6. FLASHING ALERT OPERATING MODE

If a Flashing Alert Mode transmitter or sensor is activated, the light 
connected to the Screw-In Dimmer will flash for a predetermined time 
interval. During the flashing interval, the red LED on the Screw-In 
Dimmer will flash. Activating a programmed transmitter or sensor under 
Regular Mode or Countdown Timer Mode during flashing interval can 
override flashing alert operation.  

CAUTION
DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS WHILE PRESSING THE SET 
BUTTON. MAKING CONTACT WITH INNER METAL PARTS MAY 
RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAUSING SEVERE OR FATAL 
INJURY.
