APPEARANCE**

OPERATION MODE CHANGE (AUTOMATIC, MANUAL)

•  • The ZCM-31 programmers have a ‘storage mode’ default setting to protect the battery during storage.

•  • During battery backup operation, the first programmer activation is realised by means of pressing the ( ) button shortly which causes the storage mode is 

changed, next it is required to set the date and time.

•  • During rated voltage operation, the first programmer activation is realised by setting the time and date.

•  • The programmer can be readjusted to the storage mode by means of carrying out a device reset

•  - in order to do it press the ( ) and ( ) buttons simultaneously for a shorter time in the main menu.

ZCM-31 digital time programmers are 

used to realize time functions in automa-

tion and control systems. Switching on / 

switching off the device is related to sun-

set and sunrise (official dawn and dusk). 

The following information on geographic 

coordinates of the clock’s installation 

place, current date, and time difference 

with regard to the universal time (GMT) 

is used to calculate the time of sunrise 

and sunset. The system calculates the 

so-called official time of sunrise and sun-

set and this is the phase when the upper 

edge of the Sun touches the horizon. Ad-

ditionally, the system has the function of 

a programmable night break and a pos-

sibility to change the calculated sunrise/

sunset time in the range of ±120 min. 

The device casing construction allows 

the system to be installed on a TH35 rail 

and additionally the casing can be sealed. 

The system structure guarantees battery 

backup of the settings in case of power 

supply failure.

CAUTION:

To protect the programmer’s battery 

during storage time, the ZCM-31 series 

has a ‘storage mode’ default setting 

with a minimum current consumption.

The device is designed for sin-

gle-phase installation and must be in-

stalled in accordance with standards 

valid in a particular country. The de-

vice should be connected according 

to the details included in this manual instruction. 

Installation, connection and control should be 

carried out by a qualified electrician staff, who 

act in accordance with the service manual and 

the device functions. In case of casing disman-

tling, the guarantee is lost and an electric shock 

may occur. Before installation make sure the 

connection cables are not under voltage. Im-

proper transport, storage, and use of the device 

influence its wrong functioning. It is not advis-

able to install the device in the following cas-

es:  if any device part is missing or the device 

is damaged or deformed. In case of improper 

functioning of the device contact the producer.

trical and electronic equipment. It is forbidden to 

put the used equipment together with other waste.
