IMPORTANT : For 3-Way applications, note that one of the screw
terminals from the old switch being removed will usually be a different
color (Black) or labeled Common. Tag that wire with electrical tape and
identify as the common (Line or Load) in both the switch wall box and
remote wall box.

Preparing and connecting wires:
Step 3
Pull off pre-cut insulation from timer leads. Make sure that
the ends of the wires from the wall box are straight (cut if
necessary). Remove insulation from each wire in the wall
box as shown.

WIRING TIMER SWITCH:
Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:
NOTE: The timer switch must be installed in a wall box that has a Line Hot
connection.
NOTE: Maximum wire length from timer switch to all installed remotes
cannot exceed 300 ft (90 m).
• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to timer switch Green lead.
• Line Hot (common) wall box wire identified (tagged) when removing old
switch to timer switch Black lead.
• First Traveler wall box wire to timer switch Red lead
(note wire color).
• Remove Red insulating label from timer switch Yellow/Red lead.
• Second Traveler wall box wire to the Yellow/Red lead (note wire color).
This traveler from the timer switch must go to the terminal screw on the
remote marked "YL/RD".
• Line Neutral wall box wire to timer switch White lead.
WIRING COORDINATING REMOTE SWITCH (VP0SR-10):
Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:
NOTE: "BK" and "RD" terminals on coordinating remote switch are
unused. Tighten both screws.
NOTE: Maximum wire length from timer switch to last remote cannot
exceed 300 ft (90 m).
• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green terminal screw.
• Load wall box wire identified (tagged) when removing old switch to First
Traveler (note color as above).
• Second Traveler wall box wire (note color as above) to terminal screw
marked "YL/RD". This traveler from the remote must go to the Yellow/
Red lead on the timer switch.
• Remove White insulating label from terminal screw marked "WH".
• Line Neutral wall box wire to terminal screw marked "WH".
• Proceed to Step 5.

• Line Hot (common) wall box wire identified (tagged) when removing
old switch and First Traveler to remote terminal screw marked "BK".
• Second Traveler wall box wire from switch to remote terminal screw
marked "YL/RD" (note wire color). This traveler from the remote must
go to the Yellow/Red lead on the timer switch.
• Line Neutral wall box wire to remote terminal screw marked "WH".
WIRING TIMER SWITCH (wall box with Load connection):
Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:
• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to timer switch Green lead.
• Load wall box wire identified (tagged) when removing old switch to timer
switch Red lead.
• First Traveler Line Hot to timer switch Black lead.
• Remove Red insulating label from Yellow/Red lead.
• Second Traveler wall box wire (note color as above) to timer switch
Yellow/Red lead. This traveler from the switch must go to the terminal
screw on the remote marked "YL/RD".
• Line Neutral wall box wire to timer switch White lead.
• Proceed to Step 5.

Testing your Switch prior to mounting in
Step 5
wall box:
• Position all wires to provide
room in outlet wall box for
device.
• Ensure that the word "TOP" is
facing up on device strap.
• Partially screw in mounting
screws in wall box mounting
holes.
NOTE: Dress wires with a bend as shown
in diagram in order to relieve stress when
mounting device.
• Restore power at circuit breaker or fuse.
• Wait until
or time is displayed on
the screen.
• Press pad until locator light is OFF. Load
should turn ON.
If loads do not turn ON, refer to the
TROUBLESHOOTING section.
Switch Mounting:
Step 6
TURN OFF POWER AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE.
• Installation may now be completed
by tightening mounting screws into
wall box. Attach wallplate.
Restore Power:
Step 7
Restore power at circuit breaker or fuse.
Installation is complete.
NOTE: The Digital Timer Switch is equipped with an internal
rechargeable battery back-up to keep programmed settings
in the event of a power interruption.
