To turn on / off the light, simply tap the touch pad of the wall dimmer
once with your finger, it will toggle the status of the
light, i.e. from on to
off or from off to on.
Note: Once the number of flashes reaches 5, it will stay at this setting. If
you would like to go back to other settings, such as 1 minute, release the
button and repeat from step 1 to start over.
Once a transmitter (button) is programmed for timer mode or flashing
mode, activating this programmed transmitter (button) will turn on the
light for the specified timer duration.
During a timer count down, if the Wall Dimmer receives another signal for
timer operation, the timer will start again and overrides the previous timer,
therefore, extending the On period by another timer interval.
To stop timer count down, press a programmed button for regular mode.

As mentioned, the timer can be set to the following durations, 1 minute,
5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes.
This timer duration is used for both under Flashing Alert Operating Mode
and Countdown Timer Operating Mode.
There is only one timer setting, so all transmitters that are programmed
for timer mode and flashing mode will have the same timer duration. To
set the timer duration, follow the instructions below:
1. Wall Dimmer must be installed and powered properly. The connected
light should be off, and the 2 blue LEDs are on. The light must
be off in order to set the timer duration.
2. Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds, the lower blue LED

4. Within 15 seconds, follow steps A) to C).
A). Press the PROG button on the back of the TC transmitter with a sharp
object.
B). Press the button on the TC transmitter that you would like to program.
C). Once the transmitter is programmed, the two blue LEDs on the Wall
Dimmer flash quickly then stop flashing, indicating you have

programmed transmitter button is ready to be used for Countdown
Timer Mode.
To program other transmitters/sensors, please refer to the instructions
of those transmitters/sensors and above instructions.
Note: You must complete the programming sequence within the 15-second
