Betjeningsvejledning
The IW700K timer allows for precise scheduling of electrical devices with its mechanical dial and trippers.
Indstilling af timeren
- Indstil aktuel tid: Rotate the outer dial clockwise until the current time aligns with the small arrow indicator on the timer face.
- Program ON/OFF Events: The dial has 72 captive trippers around its circumference, each representing a 20-minute interval. To set an ON event, push the tripper(s) corresponding to the desired ON time towards the center of the dial. To set an OFF event, leave the tripper(s) at the desired OFF time in their outward position. The timer will activate or deactivate the connected device as the dial rotates past these set trippers.
Using the Override Switch
The timer features a 3-position slide switch located below the dial, providing manual control over the connected load:
- OFF: Slides the switch to the 'OFF' position to keep the connected device continuously off, overriding any programmed ON events.
- PÅ: Slides the switch to the 'ON' position to keep the connected device continuously on, overriding any programmed OFF events.
- BIL: Slides the switch to the 'AUTO' position for the timer to follow the programmed ON/OFF schedule set by the trippers.

Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your Intermatic IW700K timer, please review følgende almindelige problemer og deres mulige løsninger:
- Timer Dial Not Moving:
- Verify that the timer is receiving continuous power.
- Confirm that a neutral wire is properly connected. The clock motor requires a neutral connection to operate.
- Ensure the override switch is not stuck in an intermediate position.
- Programmed Events Not Activating/Deactivating:
- Check that the override switch is set to the 'AUTO' position.
- Ensure the ON/OFF trippers are correctly pushed in or left out according to your desired schedule.
- Verify the current time is accurately set on the dial.
- Device Stays ON/OFF Continuously:
- Confirm the override switch is in the 'AUTO' position if you desire programmed operation. If it's in 'ON' or 'OFF', it will override the schedule.
- Humming Noise from Timer:
- A slight hum is normal for mechanical timers due to the synchronous motor. If the hum is excessively loud or accompanied by other issues, contact support.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, or if you suspect a wiring problem, please contact Intermatic Technical Support or a qualified electrician.
