This image displays the internal components of the Intermatic T104P time switch, including the 24-hour dial for setting time, the manual ON/OFF lever, and the clearly labeled LINE and LOAD wiring terminals. A caution label regarding power disconnection and wire types is visible.
- Afbryd strømmen: Turn off power at the main circuit breaker or fuse panel before beginning any wiring.
- Adgangsterminaler: The insulator covering the wiring terminals must be lifted and swung out of the way to access the connections. DO NOT REMOVE THIS INSULATOR.
- Connect Line Wires: Connect the incoming power supply wires (LINE) to the terminals labeled 'LINE'. This time switch is DPST (Double Pole Single Throw), meaning it controls two separate hot lines.
- Connect Load Wires: Connect the wires leading to the electrical load (e.g., pump, lighting) to the terminals labeled 'LOAD'.
- Jording: Ensure the time switch is properly grounded according to local electrical codes.
- Sikre ledninger: Sørg for, at alle ledningsforbindelser er tætte og sikre.
- Udskift isolator: Swing the insulator back into its original position, covering the wiring terminals.
- Luk indhegning: Luk og fastgør kabinetdøren.
- Gendan strøm: Turn power back on at the main circuit breaker or fuse panel.

5. Betjeningsvejledning
5.1 Indstilling af det aktuelle klokkeslæt
To set the current time, rotate the yellow dial clockwise until the current time of day aligns with the small arrow located at the top of the dial. Ensure to differentiate between AM and PM hours as indicated on the dial.
5.2 Indstilling af tænd/sluk-tider
The T104P uses trippers to set the ON and OFF times. The unit comes with one ON tripper (green) and one OFF tripper (red).
- Install ON Tripper: Locate the green ON tripper. Push it onto the outer edge of the yellow dial at the desired time you want the connected load to turn ON.
- Install OFF Tripper: Locate the red OFF tripper. Push it onto the outer edge of the yellow dial at the desired time you want the connected load to turn OFF.
- Yderligere cyklusser: The time switch supports up to 12 ON/OFF operations per day. Additional trippers can be purchased separately if more cycles are required. Each ON/OFF cycle requires one green ON tripper and one red OFF tripper.
- Minimum interval: The minimum ON/OFF time interval is one hour. Ensure there is at least one hour between an ON and OFF tripper.
5.3 Manuel tilsidesættelse
The time switch includes a manual override lever for temporary control of the connected load without affecting the programmed schedule.
- To manually turn the load ON or OFF, move the manual lever located below the dial to the desired position (ON or OFF).
- The next scheduled ON or OFF tripper will automatically restore the timer to its programmed schedule.
6. Vedligeholdelse
The Intermatic T104P is designed for minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can ensure optimal performance and longevity.
- Rensning: Rengør jævnligt ydersiden af kabinettet medamp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the enclosure is dry before closing.
- Terminalforbindelser: Annually, with power disconnected, inspect wiring terminals for tightness and corrosion. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Dial and Trippers: Ensure the dial rotates freely and trippers are securely in place.
