the keyhole slot. Level the timer and use
the second screw in one of the preformed

wires to a numbered terminal (only one
wire per terminal.)

Once your Orbit® timer is plugged into the

pair with your smart device. In the top left
corner of the timer screen the “wifi” icon
will begin a graduated blinking sequence.
This indicates that your timer is ready to
pair with a smart device.
