Astro-function 

• 

The switch function  OFF in Astro mode is alligned 

with sunrise 

• 

The switch function  ON in Astro mode is alligned 

with sunset 

• 

Each switch-time can be programmed alternatively 

as Astro, or as normal switch-time. 

• 

With the two channel version each channel can be 

programmed seperately to be Astro or normal 

switching function. 

• 

If the Astro-function is chosen for a switch-time, the 

sunrise (turning off) as well as sunset (turning on) 

times programmed for the current day will be shown 

in the Display - 

  - this time can be changed as required and 

becomes automatically modified each successive 

day in accordance with the chosen Astro table - 

  - the difference (offset) between the entered switch-

time and the sunrise/set-time is fixed for successive 

operations 

• 

The programmed switching times, (mode P), as well 

as the indicated Astro-switch times (mode?) are 

always applied exclusively to the current day. 

• 

In mode AUTO The current sunset-time can be read 

by pressing button O.K., and by pressing O.K.twice 

the current sunrise-time is displayed 

• 

In mode ? the matching astro-table must be chosen 

as the first step.
