DESCRIPTION

Model 841 is a single channel unit.

Model 842 us a two channel unit. The two channels operate totally 
independently of each other and can have different programmes set.

Both the models have a number of common features as described 
below:

The 

Day 

and 

Time 

are displayed as fi ve digits on the liquid crystal display 

(LCD)

The fi rst digit in its separate window marked 

Day 

will be numerical from 

1 to 7 which may be allocated in sequence to the days of the week at the 
user’s discretion. The normal convention is Monday = 1, Tuesday = 2 ......... 
Sunday = 7.

The remaining four digits in the window marked 

Time 

will display the time 

to a resolution of one minute from 0000 to 2359.

A short ‘bleep’ will be heard if a keypad is pressed. In addition when a 
numeric keypad is pressed the associated digit on the LCD will either 
blink or change.

The 3 position selector switch (one for each channel on Model 842) may 
be set to 

Off 

to override the programmes or may be set to 

Auto 

to follow 

the programme which has been set, the third position marked 

Manual 

is 

a continuous ON but only as long as the switch is held down.

The output status indicator light will be illuminated when the selector 
switch is at 

Auto 

and a programme event occurs, or when the selector 

switch is held in the 

Manual 

position.

The unit can be set at time of installation to provide either an On duration 
from 1 to 15 seconds in half second pulses, or a continuous pulse from 1 to 
15 seconds. (In the case of Model 842 each channel can be set to different 
pulse types but of the same duration).

It is recommended that the key be removed from the keyswitch to prevent 
unauthorised or accidental changes to the settings. The key can only be 
removed when in 

Run 

position. 

Seven Day Pulsed Electronic Timeswitch

User Instructions

TIME OF DAY

The mains electricity supply must be ON, the key inserted and turned to 

Set 

Time

 position before carrying out the operations detailed below. 

When the timeswitch is fi rst connected, or when the battery has been 
allowed to discharge fully, and the mains electricity supply is switched ON 
a dash (-) will be displayed in each of the fi ve digit positions.

Decide which day of the week you wish to assign as Day 1.

Press the number key representing the current day of the week (listen for 
the ‘bleep’).

key will not register on the display; the LCD digit will blink but remain 
unchanged until an acceptable number is keyed.
