Installation Terms and Options

WARNING: Shut off power at the fuse box or circuit breaker before performing any wiring or installation.

BASIC WIRING TERMINOLOGY


To better familiarize yourself with the wiring terminology and concepts referenced in this manual, please review the following information before you begin wiring this timer to your switch outlet.
If at any time during the wiring process you become uncertain, please contact a certified electrician.
□ Line: This is the 120 AC (hot) from breaker box.
□ Load: This is the 120V AC wire that controls the fixture (load out) which carries power to the light.
□ Neutral: 120 volt return connection.
□ Ground: 120 safety ground.
□ Traveler-1 and Traveler-2: Wires running between two 3-way switches for installations where a light is controlled by two switches.
INSTALLATION OPTIONS
To begin the installation process, you must first know what type of installation is needed. Below are the 3 different installation options. Please refer to the following descriptions for the installation
instructions that apply to you.
1 Single-Pole Installation (Go to install section 1 on page 2):
This installation option should be used when a switch only controls one outlet from a single location. A typical example of where you would find a single-pole switch is your bedroom or
bathroom light switch.
2 3-Way Installation, Load Side (Go to install section 2 on page 2):
This installation option replaces a switch which controls a light that can be controlled from two locations and in most installations has the common (hot) terminal tied to the lamp/load the
switch turns OFF and ON. Typically these types of installations are in stairwells, hallways, and large rooms with multiple accesses points.
3 3-Way Installation, Line Side (Go to install section 3 on page 2):
This installation option replaces a switch which controls a light that can be controlled from two locations and in most installations has the common (hot) terminal tied to 120VAC. Typically
these types of installations are in stairwells, hallways, and large rooms with multiple accesses points.

Troubleshooting
Three way switch will not work:
• Make sure jumper wiring is correct.
Lights on all day controlled by timer:
• Check to make sure the clock time is set for correct am/pm
• Check to make sure Dusk time and dawn time are not reversed
Lights come on and off at times different than they programmed:
• Check to see if there are multiple programs on the timer that conflict with each other.
• 3-Way switch may have been used to turn lights off or on, the timer should function correctly during the next program cycle.
