SELECTION OF FUNCTION MODES AND LIGHT LEVEL SETTINGS

Each channel can be assigned via the slide switches to one of three distinct function modes:

1)

Time ON/Time OFF

2)

Light level (photo) ON/time OFF

3)

Light level (photo) ON/light level (photo) OFF

NOTE:

Photosensor has instant ON and 20 seconds OFF delay.

1)

In Time ON/Time OFF Mode,

(Figure 1) the channel is controlled

by timer functions and light level is irrelevant. All events are exe-
cuted by timer schedule. For programming the timer, refer to sec-
tion 6.0.

2)

In Photo ON/Time OFF Mode,

(Figure 2, Arrow 2) channel will

turn

ON

and

OFF

based on the combination of timer, and light

level settings. Note, 2 conditions must be met for the channel to
turn ON. 1) The ambient light level falls below the ON fc setting
(Arrow 3) and 2) The channel is scheduled to be ON at that time.
Typically an

OFF

time setting for during the night will be set by the

user. Otherwise, the channel will turn

OFF

when the ambient light

comes above the “

OFF fc

” light level setting (Arrow 4). This mode

permits the channel to turn

OFF

and

ON

as many times as need-

ed, in the period between SUNSET and SUNRISE. In this illustra-
tion, the light level for ON fc is about 10 Foot-Candles, and the
light level for OFF fc is about 100 Foot-Candles. Refer to the sec-
tion 6.0 “Scheduling ON’s/OFF’s”.

3)

Photo ON/Photo OFF Mode:

(Figure 3, Arrow 5) channels that

are in this mode will turn

ON

and

OFF

based on the light level set-

tings. The timer settings will be ignored in this mode: All programs
either

ON

or

OFF

will not be executed.

A channel will turn

ON

when light level is below the

ON fc

light

level setting for that channel (Arrow 6). The channel will then turn

OFF

when light level goes above the

OFF fc

setting for that chan-

nel (Arrow 7).

In this illustration, the light level for

ON fc

is about 30 Foot-

Candles, and the light level for

OFF fc

is about 10 Foot-Candles.

Set both the ON fc and OFF fc light levels (using a small screwdriver) for every channel which
the slide switch is in the PHOTO ON / TIME OFF or PHOTO ON / PHOTO OFF position.
