Programming Device Timers

Device timers consist of an ON time and an OFF time, and selected days of
the week in which they are active. There are up to 20 timers that can be used
to control various devices, such as lights or appliances. Your installer will
have programmed the appropriate devices into the system (up to 96 devices
can be programmed).
Each timer controls a single device (designated as an output number) that
you select. For example, timer 1 might be set to turn the porch lights on at
7:00pm and turn them off at 11:00pm. Timer 2 might turn on the air
conditioner Monday through Friday at 4:30pm to cool the premises before
you arrive at 5:00pm, and turn it off at 10:00pm when you are retiring for
the night. If desired, different timers can control the same device. For
example, timer 2 could be used Monday through Friday as in the previous
example, and timer 3 could be set to turn the air conditioner on and off at
different times Saturday and Sunday.
