Operating instructions DIW-ASTRO1 solar timer
Thank you for purchasing the DIW-ASTRO1 Universal timer. Please read the instructions carefully,
keep them and pass them on if you pass the timer on.
Please be sure to follow the safety instructions:
Attention: The installation and assembly of electrical devices may only be carried out by an
approved electrician.The general rules of electrical engineering must be observed.
BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION, PLEASE TURN OFF THE POWER AND PREVENT IT FROM
BEING UNINTENDEDLY SWITCHED ON AGAIN
Strong inductive fields can affect operation. Interference can be avoided by observing the
following rules during installation:
- The device must not be installed near inductive loads (motors, transformers, contactors, etc.)
- It is recommended to provide a separate supply line (if necessary with mains filter)
- The inductive loads must have an interference suppression system (varistor, RC filter). If the timer
is used together with other devices in the same installation, it should be checked that the
assembled system does not cause parasitic interference.
Do not restore power until the device is completely installed.
● Do not use the timer in environments with dust, corrosive gases, direct sunlight, frost
or rain. Do not drop it. Only clean it dry.
● Make sure that operation is carried out only at the specified rated voltage and under the
specified temperature and humidity conditions.
● This timer is not a toy and should not be left in the hands of children. Electrical
devices, packaging materials, etc. should be kept out of the reach of children.
● Do not load the timer with more than 16/8 A (resistive/inductive load). Do not confuse L and N.
● If the device is damaged or defective, it must no longer be used.
● Do not carry out any repairs yourself.
General
The DIW-ASTRO1 is a digital universal timer. Ideal for controlling electrical systems
and lighting whose switching times depend on the position of the sun, i.e. the time of
sunrise and sunset. Adapted to a specific location (longitude/latitude) and every day
of the year. There are 8 program points with 15 leap day combinations (point 6b).
Easy to program: just enter the date and time. ASTRO function by entering the location +
time zone. Quick programming of theAstrofunction by selecting "Prog" (point 3). The first
program slot is automatically set with the current switching times sunset (ON) and
sunrise (OFF). A delay of up to +/- 1h for potentially unfavorable locations can also be
selected. The astro function can also be optionally assigned to any switching command
(ON/OFF). This changes the switching time depending on the date as follows: TheSwitch-
on time increases in summerdaily anddecreases in winter TheShut-off time
decreases in summerdaily, andincreases in winter. Summer = from the winter solstice
(December 21st) - Winter = from the summer solstice (June 21st)
Without Astro, the set switching time remains fixed. The potential-free changeover contact also allows you
to reverse the switching behavior (swap ON/OFF times and assign NC). The integrated calendar ranges from
2016-2066. Comprehensive help is available on the Internet.
The product must be passed on along with the accompanying instructions for use.
