Assembly hints The power saver turns off your equipment after a preset time. It helps you save money and it increases safety. FEATURES: Single button operation with LED mode indicator continuous : 24h turn-off timer slow flashing : 4h or 8h turn-off timer fast flashing : 1h or 2h turn-off timer : idle Choose short or long-running timers (one-time jumper setting)

Wiring the push button 18. Wiring the push button Cut off a piece of shrinkable tube with a lenght equal to 2,5cm. Fig. 2.0 Slide the shrinkable tube over the wires of the female 'board to wire'-connector (fig. 2.0) Solder the 4-pole female 'board to wire' connector to the push button using the figure below to check the accuracy of the connections (see figure 3.0) Attention: Always make sure to slide down the shrinking tube far enough from the soldering points!

Never modify the JP1 mode setting while the unit is still live! Jumper selection: First, choose the desired timer function, i.e. a long-term or a short-term timer. (1) Long-term timer. Mount the jumper (JP1) At power-on, the pushbutton LED (or LD1) will flash slowly twice, hereby indicating that long-term timers have been selected (2h or 8h turn-off timer).

Use : Push button briefly: turn-on relay and toggle between a short or a long turn-off delay. Short turn-off delay (1h or 4h, depending on setting of jumper JP1) Pushbutton LED (or LD1) blinks fast. Long turn-off delay (2h or 8h, depending on setting of jumper JP2) Pushbutton LED (or LD1) blinks slowly.
