VACATION (Push FUNCTION button until the following screen shows):

Vacation mode is meant to give your home a lived in look even when you are away. For that reason, the Timer will run all Normal, Random

automatically runs all Normal and Random programs and operates all Normal triggers, but it does not run Vacation programs or operate
Vacation triggers. Additionally, in order to enhance the appearance that your home is occupied, all Vacation programs will operate
randomly, the Timer choosing to start the program up to 30 minutes before or after the execution time set up for the program. Vacation
triggers will not have any randomizing function applied. While the timer is in Vacation mode, the Immediate Action buttons will not operate
and you can not utilize the Emergency function.
