  • Page 3: Introduction

    Introduction The EL7100 and EL7200 are one and two-channel, electronic time controls that provide simple, inexpensive control of lighting, HVAC, motors, pumps, or any electrical load with a time-of-day schedule. The control may be utilized as a 24 hour, 7 day or full year (365 day) control.
  • Page 4 When configured for momentary the EL7200 will have only one channel; Relay #1 will provide a 1 second latching ON pulse and Relay #2 will provide a 1 second latching OFF pulse. The EL7100 only has one relay, therefore it does not have momentary capability.

    Programming Programming Overview: After pressing the PROGRAM key, the EL7100 and EL7200 will continue to control the outputs based on the events that were operating at the time the PROGRAM key was pressed. The control will not check for new events until it has gone through a status update.
  • Page 13: Memory Clear

    Relay 2 will provide the OFF pulse. An EL7200 configured for momentary operation will become a one-channel control. Use the NEXT key to continue programming. (The EL7100 does not have this screen.) Toggle between 12 hour (AM/PM) or 24 hour (00:00-23:59) clock format using the +/- key.
  • Page 14: Set Time

    Set Time Set Time header. This mode is used for setting time, date and daylight savings time. Use the NEXT key to begin programming. Program hours, minutes, seconds and day of week using the +/- key. A PM indica- tor is used in the 12 hour format. AM begins with midnight and PM begins with noon.
  • Page 15: Event

  • Page 16: Holiday

    Holiday Holiday header. The four holiday types with their priorities are as follows: SPEC (special) - highest priority DATE (month/date) - 2nd highest priority D/WK (day of week) - 3rd highest priority SPAN (duration) - lowest priority To demonstrate the use of priorities, assume that Thanksgiving Break (SPEC) is pro- grammed as a holiday schedule B.
  • Page 17 Special Holiday type. Each of 6 special holidays can either be assigned as one of the 3 holiday schedules A, B or C or not selected. Press the NEXT key to program the special holidays (starting with Good Friday) or press the +/- keys to move to a different holiday type (e.g.
