Set Program – Looping Start Time
The MC-E has the capability to loop a program. When a program is set to loop, the program will repeat after the loop
delay time is satisfied. The program will continue to repeat beginning from the start time until the designated end time.
To initiate the program to loop, you must assign a start time, end time and a loop delay to the program.
Set a Looping Start Time
Step 1 – Establish a start time to the program. (See Set Program – Program Start Time section.)
Step 2 – Assign a program End time. Place the Function Dial to the SET PROGRAM position. Enter the program
number being modified. Enter to access the loop function.
Press the button to clear any “Key Entry Error”.
Enter the program end time in H MM format and press . Use the button for PM.
Example: Enter 6:00am start time and 10:00pm end time.
Step 3 – You must assign a loop delay by entering . Enter the delay time in H MM or MM and press .
One minute loop delay is the minimum.
Example: Assign a 30-minute loop delay. Enter .
After establishing a loop, any additional program start time(s) will be deleted.
Step 4 – Return the Function dial to AUTO/RUN position to exit SET PROGRAM.
IMPORTANT! A looping program must have it’s start time and end time programmed to occur on the
same day. Looping through midnight (end time is on another day) may cause the end time to be ignored or lost.
