Carry out A to D in sequence referring to figs 1, 2 and 3:-
APermanent ON override indicator must point to AUTO, if not press Permanent ON override
push button firmly.
BAll the segments on the outer (7 day) programme ring must have their screwdriver slots
pointing around the ring. Any that are not must be turned in a clockwise direction with a small
screwdriver until they are (fig. 3 shows one segment set as required and one incorrectly).
CThe 7 day (blue) control must have its screwdriver slot lined up with either bar (
I for ON), if not
use a small screwdriver to turn the control in a clockwise direction until they line up (see fig. 2).
DPosition red (for ON) and blue (for OFF) tappets as required around the 24 hour programme
ring (one ON at 21-30 and one OFF at 6-00 shown as an example). Rotate the 24 hour
programme ring clockwise through one complete turn and then further till the current time of
day is lined up with the time/day marker. (12-00 midday is shown as an example). The correct
position of the 24 hour (red) control has been set automatically by the above procedure.
Wire up (see main instructions) and apply power to the timeswitch. It is now operational.

Note: the numbers on the outer (7 day)
programme ring represent the days of the
week 1-Monday, 7-Sunday. Each of the
numbers is repeated, the first number going
past the time/day marker in a clockwise
direction (direction of ring travel) represents
a morning (a.m.) period, the second on
afternoon/evening (p.m.) period.
Segments with a dash above (see fig. 6) will
start or stop an omitted period at midnight

Carry out A to D (apart from applying power) and then complete E, F and G as follows:-
EOmitting days and/or half days is done by turning segments on the outer (7 day) programme
ring anticlockwise through 90° from their 24 hour operation position. One at the beginning
and one at the end of the period to be omitted.
As an example the period to be omitted is the whole of Saturday and Sunday. Turn the blue
segment between the numbers 5 and 6 on the 7 day programme ring anticlockwise so that its
screwdriver slot points in towards the centre of the programme ring and repeat this for the
blue segment between the numbers 1 and 7 (see fig. 6).
FRotate the 24 hour programme ring clockwise until the correct time and day is set for the
example shown – day 7 (Sunday), time 12-00 midday. This may take several turns of the ring.
Note:- The time marker also acts as a day marker for the 7 day programme ring.
GTurn the blue 7 day control clockwise to align its slot with either dot (•for OFF) since, for the
example shown, the 7 day programme ring is within an omit (OFF) period (see fig. 5). Wire up
(see main instructions) and apply power to the timeswitch. It is now operational.
