5 Quick Start – Countdown Timer
A common use for the Countdown Timer capability is to automatically turn off a bathroom fan a certain amount of time after it has been turned on.
The first step in implementing this capability is to install a UPB dimmer or relay switch to control the fan. If you are installing a dimmer, use UPStart to
make sure the switch is set for on/off operation only. Trying to reduce the speed of any kind of fan with a UPB dimmer is not a supported function. In
UPStart, assign a Link (we'll use L040 as an example) to be transmitted when the top rocker is pressed. Make sure this same Link is in the receive
table as well and is setup to turn the fan on and off. Assign another Link (we'll use L044) to the receive table of the switch. Use UPStart to make sure
the switch rocker has been Transmit Enabled (see the Options tab). DO NOT use Link241 for any button or rocker that is Transmit Enabled. Link241
is reserved as an internal link in many UPB switches. Assuming you have already set the date/time, latitude, longitude, time zone and UPB Network
ID (see the previous section) follow these steps to quickly turn the UPB switch into a countdown timer:

Set up a Trigger to watch for a UPB Link, wait a defined amount of time, then issue another Link:
o Push the MENU button until the SET screen is displayed.
