Programming Device Timers

General Information

Device timers consist of an ON time & 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-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-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.
