6 – Set Initial Pair of ON and OFF Times
You have many options with up to 40 timer settings:
Set to a specific ON/OFF time.
•
Set to DAWN and DUSK, which automatically adjust as the sea-•
sons change. This is the ASTRONOMIC feature.
Set to activate ALL days, M-F, WeeKenD, or individual days.
•
Programs are created in two procedures: setting an ON time fol-
lowed by setting an OFF time. You must set each time separately. The
instructions below will guide you as follows:
First, for setting an ON time, which can be DAWN or DUSK, or a
•
specific time such as 6:00 pm,
Then for setting an OFF time which can also be DAWN or Dusk, or
•
a specific time.
Press
1. MODE until the screen displays ProGraM
below the time of day (Fig. 13).
Press
2. ON/OFF to display the program number,
then press + until you see the program number
you want to set (Fig. 14).
Press
3. ON/OFF, then press + if necessary, to display
ON for setting the ON time (Fig. 15). Continue to
press + for OFF (if setting an OFF time) or SKIP (if
deleting a setting).
Press
4. ON/OFF, then press + to display whether you
want ON to be set for DUSK, DAWN, or a specific
time which would be shown as “12:00” (until you change it).
If ON is to be at Dawn or Dusk:
NOTE: Some people like to set DUSK as an ON time and match it
with a specific time such as 11:00 pm for OFF.
Press

week only), or WKD (weekend only). Fig. 22
shows ALL as an example.
The single lithium CR2 battery operates the ON/OFF function •
(“click-click”) and maintains time of day and date. The screen
flashes “BATT” when the battery is getting low.
It is recommended to remove AC power when changing the battery.
•
You have about one minute to swap batteries before the switch •
timer “forgets” the date and time settings. Afterwards, if the
display is wrong or flashes “12:00 AM”, reset the time and date.
All other settings (your ON/OFF programming) remain in memory
indefinitely without battery or AC power.
To test the battery, press the
• ON/OFF button. The timer should
“click.”
Replace the battery per Section 1 Instructions as soon as possible
•
after the low “BATT” message appears.
Do not leave exhausted battery in Switch Timer. (Risk of leakage.)
•
Replace only with Panasonic Type CR2 lithium battery or equivalent •
CR2 battery approved by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
Dispose of the used battery promptly according to local regula-
•
tions. Keep battery away from children. Do not disassemble and do
not dispose of battery in fire.
About the Battery
Once set up, you have three choices for using the switch timer. To
make a selection, open the front cover and press the MODE button until
you see your choice of the following options:
AUTO
• — uses the timer settings you have programmed.
RANDom
• — gives your home a “lived-in” look by varying your set-
tings by a random amount of ± 20 minutes or so.
MANual
• — makes the switch into a standard ON/OFF switch with-
out timer settings. Press on the door of the switch timer for ON,
press again for OFF.

NOTE: If the building’s wiring colors don’t allow you to tell wire
“A” from “B,” just pick one of the two wires and connect as if
it is wire “B.” After the installation is complete, if the controlled
light or device will not turn on properly, simply reverse wires
“A” and “B.” See Steps J and K for how to check.
Tuck wires into the timer wall box leaving room for the timer.
g.
Using screws provided, mount the switch timer into the wall h.
box, then install the wall plate.
Install the remote 3-way switch in its box and install wall plate.
i.
Turn the power back on at the service panel.
Make sure the switch timer displays “MAN” mode. Do the
j.
following test with the remote switch in each of its 2 positions:
Press the ON/OFF button on the switch timer several times. Each
time that you push the ON/OFF button, the switch timer should
“click” and the controlled light or device (the “load”) should
turn on or off. If so, proceed to Step K.
If the timer clicks but the load does not operate, re-check
-
your wiring and make sure the load is functional.
If the timer clicks but the load only operates when the remote
-
switch is in one of its 2 positions, you need to turn off the
power at the service panel, then reverse wires “A” and “B.”
You can reverse wires “A” and “B” at the remote switch wall
box, or you can reverse wires “A” and “B” where they connect
to the red and blue wires of the switch timer. Then turn power
back on at the service panel and repeat Step J.
Verify that the controlled load turns on or off each time that the
k.
remote switch is operated.
If a Multiple Switch Timer Setup:
Multi-switch applications using the ST01 Series switch timer are
wired differently than when using conventional toggle switches.
Read the following installation instructions carefully.
Multiple switch timers may be mounted in an unlimited number
•
of adjacent junction box slots.
No derating is required for multiple switch timers.
•
For a three-switch setup:
For four or more switch setups:
Use the preceding 3-switch installation diagram and wire 4-way
switches between the two 3-way switches.
NOTE: The remote switch(es) may not function reliably when the
accumulated wire length to the remote switch(es) exceeds 100 feet
or if the wiring to the remote switch(es) is buried underground.
Contact Intermatic Customer Service for details.
NOTE: Used remote switches from a previous conventional instal-
lation may not function reliably with an electronic timer. Try a
brand new remote switch if function is intermittent.
