TI044
02/2014 2/4
Automatic Mode
In Automatic mode, the TI044 controls Load 1 according to the
programmed schedule (see section 6). The mode indicator (
AUTO
),
the state (
ON
or
OFF
) and the current program number are
displayed.
To temporarily override the programmed schedule, press the
MODE
button or use the remote switch (if connected). The new state
indicator will flash to show that this state is temporary. The override
remains in effect until you press the
MODE
button (or use the remote
switch) or until the beginning of the next program.
3.3
Load 2
Load 2 follows the sunset/sunrise program (regardless of the
operating mode of the timer). For example, if Load 2 is a light, the
light will turn On at sunset and turns Off at sunrise.
NOTE: To use Load 2, you first need to enter the city coordinates and
set the date (see section 6).
NOTE: The switch displays the time in 24-hour format by default or
following a reset.
To switch between 12-hour format and 24-hour format, proceed
as follows:
a) Press the
MODE
button to ensure the
MAN
or
AUTO
indica-
tor is displayed.
b) Briefly press the
MIN
and
HOUR
buttons simultaneously
(
0:00
display = 24-hour;
12:00
display = 12-hour).
Set the time using the
HOUR
and
MIN
buttons. For the 12-hour
time format, if you are setting an afternoon time, ensure
PM
appears on the screen.
Press the
MODE
button to return to normal operation.
This procedure sets the switch for daylight savings time or for stan-
dard time.
Press the
CODE
button four times.
Press the
MIN
button to switch between
nor
and
Ad
.
Press the
MODE
button to return to normal operation.
NOTE 1: Load 2 always follows the sunset/sunrise program.
Therefore, to use Load 2, you need to enter the city coordinates
(longitude and latitude) and set the date.
NOTE 2: By default, once you have programmed the sunset/sunrise
parameters, Load 1 will follow the sunset/sunrise program when you
place the timer in Automatic mode. To set your own schedule, see
section 7.
6.1
Determining the sunset/sunrise parameters
Fill out the following table:
1)
LATITUDE & LONGITUDE
: Enter the coordinates of your city or
the nearest city using the supplied table. If none of the cities in the
table is applicable, this information is usually available on the Inter-
net.
NOTE
: Add a minus sign when entering a south latitude coordinate or
a west longitude coordinate.
2)
DAY #
: Enter the day #. (Add the code of the current month to
the current date.)
For example: For June 24th, the day # = 151 + 24 = 175
3) nor/Ad
: If your country has daylight savings time, select the cur-
rent time period.
4) Lc
: If your city’s time zone is based on political or economic
boundaries instead of its coordinates, your lights might switch On/Off
too early or too late with respect to sunset and sunrise. Therefore,
apply a correction factor (+1 or -1). Otherwise, leave it at 0.
6.2
Programming the sunset/sunrise parameters
Once you have completed section 6.1, proceed as follows:
Press the
CODE
button until the desired parameter appears.
The parameters appear in the following order.
Press the
HOUR
or
MIN
button to modify the value (see table
above for the buttons to use).
Press the
MODE
button to return to normal operation.
NOTE: Applies to Load 1 only. The programmed schedule does not
affect Load 2 which follows the sunset/sunrise program only.
The switch can hold 2 programs which are repeated every day. When
you place the timer in Automatic mode, it will activate the load at the
start of each program and deactivate it at the end of the program. You
need to set the following parameters:
Press the
PGM
button until the desired parameter is displayed.
If you have entered your city’s parameters (see section 6), the
parameters
P1 ON
and
P2 OFF
show the sunset time and
sunrise time for this time of the year. If Load 1 is used for
lighting, when the timer will be placed in
AUTO
mode, it will turn
the light ON at sunset and will turn it Off at sunrise. For example:
