respectively (9F).

While programming an astro program step there will be no time (hh:ss) suggested (8H / 9H). Instead of this you have the possibility to enter an

Adjust your geographical position with pre-defined choice of regions/countries and cities.

ƒ

Position coordinates:

Adjust your geographical position with longitude, latitude and time zone.

ƒ

16. External Input ***

Options

Input

->

…

The external input can be connected to a switched contact such as a push-button or light switch. Therefore you can activate and de-activate functions from a remote location or automatically from a control system

For 35mm-devices: The external input is only featured on the one channel version.

To connect an external switch or push-button: Phase L 230V~

(point 17). This function will be performed by the output channel when the external input is activated!

The pre-defined (default) setting is the standard ‘

which changes the switching status from

ON

to

OFF

and vice versa.

17. Channel keys

Options

-> channel-keys

->

…

Within the

Options

menu you will find submenu

channel-keys

. Here you have the opportunity to assign different response functions to the output channels.

These response functions will only be carried out when using the channel-keys of the time switch (manual over-ride) or optionally when activating the channel with the external input. Thus, a programmed switching time will be executed as usual, independent of the settings within this channel-key-menu.

The correlation between the channel-keys and the channels is as follows:

ƒ channel A => channel key A (push-button “A” of the device)

ƒ channel B => channel key B (push-button “B” of the device)

…

Overview „channel-keys“ functions:

If you have assigned a specific response function to a channel, this switching function will occur if you push the channel-button on the front plate of the time switch (or if the external input for this channel is activated and a signal is applied to the input, as explained under point 16). For each channel one out of the following functions can be defined:

ƒ

Change function

(default setting)

:

By pressing the channel key (or optionally using the external input) the switching status changes from

ON

to

OFF

or

OFF

to

ON

. This corresponds to a standard manual over-ride of the channel.

ƒ

Timer function:

By pressing the channel key (or optionally using the external input) the Timer starts and the corresponding channel switches

ON

. After the expiry of the Timer-time the channel switches

OFF

. If the channel receives another signal before the expiry of time the time switch reacts as follows:

ƒ After pressing the channel-button = Timer stops and the channel switches

OFF.

ƒ Signal on the external input = Timer restarts/ Staircase lighting timer -> Resettable.

ƒ

Cycle 1 – 4:

By pressing the channel key (or optionally using the external input) the cycle function starts. Attention: This function is only available if the cycle is activated and defined in advance within menu

Options

and submenu

Cycle

. Astro time-switches do not have the cycle feature!!!

ƒ

Perm on:

By pressing the channel key (or optionally using the external input) the channel switches permanently

ON

. This status remains active until the channel key of the device is pressed again.

ƒ

Perm off:

By pressing the channel key (or optionally using the external input) the channel switches permanently

OFF

. This status remains active until the channel key of the device is pressed again.

The Change function, Timer function and Cycle functions will be overridden by the regular switching program or by a manual over-ride!!!
