- ATM ,store window, billboard illuminations
General:
ASTRO is a digital time switch that calculates the sunset and sunrise
times by using coordinates and real time clock. It operates according to
the program setting and it has no need for a photocell sensor. Device
could be used as astronomical or digital time switch.
ASTRO has two reserves to protect the real time clock and calender
against power outage.
For long term reserve there is CR2032 battery. If the device is powered,
battery life is approx. 5 years. When the battery life is expired,the user is
able to replace the battery easily.
Super capacitor is used for short time power failures. It supplies the
device for 3-7 hours. In this case battery is not used, so battery level is
conserved.
NOTE1: Before commissioning the device, please insert the battery into
the battery compartment .
NOTE2: If the device is not powered, ASTRO automatically enters power
save mode to conserve the battery life. When the device is in this mode
LCD screen is turned off. The screen would turn on when pressing any
button and so the user would be able to change the settings and
programming the device manually. After 15 seconds of inactivity, the
screen would be turned off again.
NOTE3: 4 preset programs are available on the device.
Program 1 : Relay A
Program 2 : Relay A
Program 3 : Relay B
Program 4 : Relay B
