TI044 400-044-001-B 9/1/07 1/4 TI044 Installation and User Guide Industrial Indoor/Outdoor Solar Timer The TI044 is a heavy-duty indoor/outdoor timer designed to control the following loads: The TI044 is equipped with two normally-open (NO) dry contacts identified as Load 1 and Load 2 for connecting two independently operated loads: • Load 1 follows the schedule that you have programmed into the timer when placed in automatic mode. The load can also be activated or deactivated manually similar to the operation of a regular switch. A single-pole switch can be connected to the timer to control Load 1 as in a 3-way installation. For example, the timer can be installed outside whereas the switch can be located remotely (e.g., inside the house). • Load 2 always follows the sunset/sunrise program; i.e., it is activated at sunset and deactivated at sunrise. It is usually used for night lighting. n Cut power at the circuit breaker to avoid electric shock. o Connect the power supply between power line and power neutral terminals. p Connect the load and its power supply in series between Load 1 in and Load 1 out or between Load 2 in and Load 2 out depending on the application. NOTE: For a 3-way installation, connect a standard single-pole switch to the 3-way terminals of the timer as shown on the wiring diagram. q Apply power at the circuit breaker. 3.1 Load 1 Load 1 can operate in Manual or Automatic mode. To switch between the two modes, press and hold the MODE button for 3 seconds. Manual Mode In Manual mode, the TI044 operates like a regular switch to control Load 1. Briefly press the MODE button to activate or deactivate the load. (If you have connected a remote switch to the timer for a 3-way installation, the switch can also be used to activate or deactivate Load 1.) The mode indicator (MAN) and the state (ON or OFF) are displayed. Automatic Mode In Automatic mode, the TI044 controls Load 1 according to the programmed schedule (see section 6). The mode indicator (AUTO), the state (ON or OFF) and the current program number are displayed. To temporarily override the programmed schedule, press the MODE button or use the remote switch (if connected). The new state indicator will flash to show that this state is temporary. The override remains in effect until you press the MODE button (or use the remote switch) or until the beginning of the next program. 3.2 Load 2 Load 2 follows the sunset/sunrise program (regardless of the operating mode of the timer). For example, if Load 2 is a light, the light will turn On at sunset and turns Off at sunrise. NOTE: To use Load 2, you first need to enter the city coordinates and set the date (see section 6). n Applications 1.
