TROUBLESHOOTING
CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS
1. TIME DIAL - Rotates one clockwise revolution every 24 hours. Controller is
programmed for automatic (AUTO)operation with the insertion of timing pins in the
time dial holes. Once properly set, correct time of day is shown by the alignment of
the arrow labeled "TIME" with the time time shown on the time dial.
2. DAY WHEEL AND RETAINED PIN ASSEMBLY - Has 14 pin locations for a 2
week program. Controller will operate in AUTO only on the days programmed by the
depression of the day wheel pin. Once properly set, correct day is shown by the
alignment of the arrow labeled "DAY" with the day shown on the wheel.
3. AUTO-OFF-ON SWITCH KNOB - Indicates the function of the controller by
turning to ON, for manual operation, AUTO, for automatic operation and OFF,to stop
manual (ON) and automatic (AUTO) functions.
4. CHASSIS SCREWS - Secures controller chassis to enclosure.
5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION STRIP (2000 SERIES) - Allows for input and
output electrical connection. Consult Electrical Circuit and Connection Diagrams
prior to wiring.
SETTING AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
zTO SET DAY OF WEEK AND TIME OF DAY:

zTO OPERATE MANUALLY:
Turn Auto-Off-On switch to ON. When operation is no longer needed , turn
Auto-Off-On switch back to OFF.
zTO SET DAILY OPERATION:
There are 14 days to program on the Day Wheel. For each day that operation
is desired, the day wheel pin should be pushed down fully. For days where
operation is not desired, the day wheel pins should be pulled out gently.
zTO SET OPERATING TIMES:
The 24 hour Time Dial has ninety-six 15 minute increments. The timing pins
should be inserted in the Time Dial to indicate the desired operating times.
Included with each controller is a package of white 15 minute pins. Longer
timing periods may be obtained by placing white pins directly next to each
other in Time Dial. Also available are shorter duration 7 minute pins (yellow)
and 4 minute pins (orange).
zTO SET CONTROLLER TO OPERATE A MULTIPLE ZONE VALVE:
The operating times for each zone are represented by one pin or by a group of
pins in the Time Dial. Omit at least one pin between each zone of pins in Tine
Dial.
zTO START AUTOMATIC OPERATION:
Once the correct time and day have been set and the desired operating times
have been programmed, the Auto-Off-On switch knob should be turned to
Auto.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
**PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OR SERVICE, DISCONNECT POWER TO CONTROLLER

TROUBLESHOOTING
IMPORTANT
Disconnect power prior to working on power or load
1. PROBLEM: Controller fails to keep proper time.
CAUSE: No power or improper voltage to motor.
SOLUTION: Check Electrical Circuit and Connection Diagram for proper connection
of power to controller. Check voltage supply to ensure voltage to motor is 120 or
240 volts as specified for model type
CAUSE: Clock motor running but time dial not turning. Drive gear located behind
time dial may be broken.
SOLUTION: Remove time dial and inspect drive gear. Install new drive gear noting
"this side out". Reinstall time dial and be sure it turns freely clockwise.
II. PROBLEM: Controller improperly staying ON.
CAUSE: Switch is being activated.
Solution: Ensure that wires do not push against switch or relay.
Solution: Ensure that wires leading to switch are not pulled out.
CAUSE: Controller improperly wired.
SOLUTION: Check Electrical Circuit and Connection Diagram and make sure that
input wires are not wired directly to load.
CAUSE: Switch adjustment needed for proper automatic operation.
SOLUTION: Make needed switch point adjustment as outlined in part IV of
Troubleshooting Guide.
CAUSE: Switch knob not in OFF position.

SOLUTION: Turn Auto-Off-On switch to OFF.
III. PROBLEM: Controller does not turn ON in manual mode.
CAUSE: No power to controller.
SOLUTION: Be sure that controller is properly wired as per Electrical Circuit and
connection Diagram.
SOLUTION: Check circuit breaker.
IV. PROBLEM: Controller fails to operate properly in automatic (AUTO) mode.
CAUSE: Daywheel not properly programmed.
SOLUTION: Check setting and Operation Instructions for programming day wheel.
CAUSE: Auto-Off-On knob not set properly.
SOLUTION: Turn Auto-Off-On knob to Auto position.
CAUSE: Switch needs adjustment.
SOLUTION: Remove controller face from enclosure after disconnecting power to
unit. The switch adjustment Screw is located on the switch cover. A clicking of the
switch should be heard when the switch Arm is slowly pulled back at the halfway
point between the edge of the time dial and the far edge of the timing pin. With a
small screwdriver tighten the screw clockwise to cause the switch to Activate
sooner. If switch is activating sooner than desired, turn adjustment screw
counterclockwise slightly.
CAUSE: Switch contacts or relay worn out.
SOLUTION: Replace switch or relay (see parts list), ensuring controller is properly
rewired. (Note: A nut driver tool is available to assist in removing black retainer
nuts.)
Should the above troubleshooting tips fail to correct the problem you may be
having, please consult your local K-Rain distributor for service or replacement.
