Intermatic TimeMaster GM40 User manual

INSTALLATION
1. Open door and then remove interior protective cover by releasing spring clip on bottom.
2. Remove timer mechanism by releasing spring clip on bottom.
3. Select knockouts to be used. Remove inner 1/2” knockout by inserting a screwdriver in
the slot and carefully punch knockout loose. Remove slug. If 3/4” knockout is required,
remove the outer ring with pliers after removing the 1/2” knockout. Smooth edges with
knife if necessary.
4. Place enclosure in desired mounting location and mark the three mounting holes (refer to
diagram). Start by placing set screw on top and attaching enclosure over keyhole; then
screw in remaining two screws on bottom.
5. Connect conduit hubs to conduit before connecting the hubs to the enclosure. After
inserting hubs into enclosure, carefully tighten hub lock nut. Do not over-torque.
6. Verify input voltage selection. Refer to DIP switch diagram for desired input voltage.
7. Wire in accordance with National and Local Codes (see wiring diagrams).
8. Grounding: Terminate all ground wires to ground lug on bottom of enclosure.
9. Replace interior protective cover.
Note: For outdoor locations, raintight or wet location conduit hubs that comply with require-
ments of UL 514B (standardfor fittings for conduit and outlet boxes) must be used.

NOTE: Unit is shipped with DIP Switches set for 277VAC Input Voltage.
CAUTION: Do not check circuits by “sparking” wires to terminals. Damage to
the timer may result.
INPUT VOLTAGE DIP SWITCH SETTING:
1. Do not apply power to the GM40 prior to setting correct Input Voltage DIP switch.
2. Determine the input voltage which will be applied to the GM40 (i.e. L1 and L2/N terminals,
see wiring diagrams).
3. Set the DIP Switch according to the diagram below.

APPLICATION
The GM40 Multi-Volt Series Time Controls are universal,
electromechanical time switches which can be field config-
ured for various power supply voltages. The voltage options
include 120VAC, 208/240VAC and 277VAC –all within the
same unit! Selection of the desired supply voltage is easily
achieved by selecting the DIP to the corresponding input volt-
age as indicated on the printed circuit board assembly (refer
to “input voltage selection” on page 1). The mechanism is
mounted in a NEMA 3R outdoor enclosure and has been
design for the control of lighting, heating, air conditioning,
pumps, motors, or general electrical circuits in residential,
commercial, industrial and agricultural facilities. All GM40
models are available as “Mechanism Only” (–M) for installation
in other enclosures or control panels or “Bracket Mount” (-B).
The GM40 is also available in a NEMA 1 Indoor Metal
Enclosure (-IM).
SPECIFIERS GUIDE
Furnish and install a Grasslin GM40 _ Multi-Volt Series 24 hour
or (7 day) time switch with captive trippers and quartz or syn-
chronous drive. Input voltage shall be 120, 208/240 or 277VAC
selectable via simple to set DIP switch. All units shall incorpo-
rate both SPDT and DPDT contacts that shall be rated at 40A,
2HP @ 277V. Toset the starting time and to provide time indi-
cation, the unit shall have an authentic clock face with hour
and minute hands. LED indicators shall provide Power and
Status feedback. Enclosure shall be NEMA 3R suitable for
both indoor or outdoor installation. Time switch shall contain
an OFF/AUTO/ON manual override. For Carry-over: The time
switch shall have a quartz drive with 7 day reserve carry-over.
PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
SETTING THE TIME: Rotate the program dial gradually
clockwise until the day of the week (7 day) and time of day
on the outer dial is nearly aligned with the triangle marker at
2o’clock position. Then set time to the minute by rotating
minute hand clockwise.CAUTION: Do not rotate dial or
minute hand counter-clockwise.
PROGRAMMING: The 24 hour model has trippers of 15
minute increments, and an AM/PM indication on the outer
dial. The 7 day model has trippers of 2 hour increments. The
outer dial shows the 7 days of the week and AM/PM for each
day. Push the captive trippers outward for the time period(s)
that the load is to be on (Normally open contacts closed).
MANUAL OVERRIDE: With the manual switch in the middle
position, the GM40 is in automatic mode and will switch at the
programmed times. In the upper position “I”, the load is per-
manently ON. In the lower position, “O”, the load is perma-
nently OFF
.
BATTERY POWERED RESERVE
(Quartz Models):
In case of power failure, the built-in nickel-cadmium battery
maintains the time of day for 7 days. During power outage
relays are de-energized.
The GM40 is the only electromechanical general purpose time switch that offers multi-voltage selection,
SPDT and DPDT contacts, 40Amp rating, indoor and outdoor enclosure – all standard in one model.

Controlling Two 277VAC Loads
If GM40 is used to control a single 120VAC
load, remove jumper wire(L2/N to COM2) and
keep jumper wire (L1 to COM).
If GM40 is used to control two 120VAC loads,
remove jumper wire(L2/N to COM2) and
reposition it to (COM to COM2).
Note: GM40 is shipped with pre-
installed jumper wires (L1 to COM
and L2/N to COM2). In applica-
tions requiring a “DRY” non ener-
gized contact, remove jumpers as
shown.
If GM40 is used to control a single 240VAC
load, do not remove jumper wires
(L1 to COM and L2/N to COM2).
If GM40 is used to control two 277VAC loads,
remove jumper wire (L2/N to COM2) and
reposition it to (COM to COM2).
Note: Refer to page 1 for proper Input Voltage DIP Switch selection.

PROBLEM: LOAD (Lights/Pumps/Motor, etc.) does not turn ON
1. Check AMBER Power LED, if ON it indicates power is applied to GM40.
2. Verify correct input voltage DIP switch setting (refer to page 1).
3. Check voltage across terminals L1 and L2/N with Multi-meter.
4. Slide manual override switch (locate on right side of timer module) up. The
GREEN LED should illuminate indicating that the output should be ON.
5. Check wiring (refer to page 3).
PROBLEM: LOAD (Lights/Pumps/Motor, etc.)
does not turn OFF
1. Verify manual override switch is set to the middle
position.
2. Verify correct programming dial (refer to page 2).
3. Slide manual override switch (located on right side of timer module) down.
The GREEN LED should turn OFF indicating that the output should be OFF.
Mounting GM40 Mechanism into existing Intermatic
Metal Enclosure
The GM40 Series printed circuit board assembly will fit
into all Intermatic enclosures except the T7000 and
T5000 Series. Install GM40-M into Intermatic enclosure
in the same manner as the Intermatic mechanism was
previously installed.
