LIGHT TIMERS
When using a light timer it is also possible to use a lighting control so that the lighting is gradually switched
on/off. A lighting control enables you to create ideal day and night conditions.
The lighting is switched on at start time 1. The intensity is then adjusted until the preset value is achieved. The
time used to control from minimum to maximum intensity (or vice versa) is called the RUNNING TIME (or
Propagation time). The running time can be freely adjusted from 0 to 60 minutes.
Example of a dawn program with lighting delay.
Contrary to a timer, a light control can consist of a maximum of 48 periods.
