Transformer Timer Settings
General Notes:
  • To test photocell/timer transformer, You must put included black cap or black electrician's tape over the photocell before the manual override will work.
  • Install PhotoCell models in areas that receive daylight exposure.
Timer Setting and Operation:
  • To set timer for additional ON time move red pin to later in the night.
  • You can set two on and two off times. This is useful for owner who want the lights to go off at midnight then go back on and off again early in the morning.
  • Timer pins represent 30 minute intervals - it is impossible to perfectly sync multiple transformers with separate timers and/or photocells. Use one central control if perfect sync is desired.
Photocell Settings and Operation:
  • Set timer to go on around 2:00 pm. - the PhotoCell will immediately shut off the transformer. At dusk the PhotoCell will then have power to it to turn the transformer ON. Set the tripper pins on the time to the desired OFF time. To test PhotoCell/Timer transformer YOU MUST PUT BLACK CAP OR TAPE OVER THE PHOTOCELL BEFORE MANUAL OVERRIDE WILL WORK.
