OPERATION
Manual ON and OFF control is always available by pressing the ON/OFF button.
Automatic-OFF and Automatic Delayed-OFF are always enabled regardless of other Setup Mode options.
When set for Automatic-ON mode (see SETUP section), the AS-100 turns ON the load when it receives the Automatic-ON signal from a
Wattstopper lighting control panel or other lighting control system.
Automatic Control Signals
Automatic commands to turn OFF or turn ON the load connected to the AS-100 come from the lighting control panel interrupting power
to the AS-100 for the amount of time shown below (timing must be +/- one-quarter of a second):
Command Power Interrupt Duration Function Description
Automatic-ON 3 sec. Lights turn ON (if Automatic-ON Setup Mode option is enabled).
Automatic-OFF 5 sec. Lights turn OFF when power is interrupted (for 5 seconds), turn back ON for 7
seconds, then turn OFF.
Automatic
Delayed-OFF
1 – 2 sec. Initiates a five-minute delay period before shutting OFF lights. At any time,
pushing the ON/OFF button before the lights turn OFF cancels the countdown
and keeps the lights ON until the next control signal from the lighting control
panel, or until the AS-100 is manually turned OFF.
During the Delayed-OFF period:
1. The lights flash once when power is interrupted (for 1–2 seconds).
2. The center (red) locator LED begins to blink once every two (2) seconds.
3. An audible beep sounds once every minute (if enabled, see Setup section).
4. During the final minute, the LED blinks once every second and the beep
sounds every five (5) seconds (if enabled) until the lights are turned OFF.
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Verify that all connections are tightly secured.
2. Ensure that all wiring is properly done according to the schematic (see Wiring section).
3. Check for the correct option setting if the audible beep or Automatic-ON operating mode does not work properly (see SETUP
section).
4. When choosing automatic commands to delay OFF, shut OFF or turn ON the switch by interrupting power to the switch, check the
specified time duration and make sure the resolution for timing is +/- one-quarter of a second (see Operation section).
5. Check to make sure that the ground terminal is connected.
The AS-100 will not operate properly without a ground connection.
6. If the AS-100 is still not functioning properly, call 800.879.8585 for Technical Support.
