PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS (TC SERIES) / SENSORS (CONT)Model PA-318Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor)Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor)Insert the antenna to the Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor) as shown. Place the antenna in the upright position to have the best reception. Simply plug the Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor) to an electrical outlet, then plug in a light or home appliance that you would like to operate to the socket on the Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor).  Follow the programming instructions below to get started.  In order to operate the Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor) remotely with a transmitter or sensor, it must be programmed to the Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor). Each module can be operated by up to 16 different transmitters (or 16 different command signals). There are 2 operating modes with the Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor):1) On / Off Mode  When a valid signal is received, it will toggle the load,      i.e. turning off or on the light2) Timer Mode  When a valid signal is received, the load will be on for     a specific period of time, from 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes,     30 minutes, and 60 minutesTo program a transmitter / Sensor into the Plug-In Module (Indoor / Outdoor), follow the instructions below. 1. Plug in a load to the Plug-In Module     (Indoor / Outdoor)2. Plug in the module to an AC electrical     outlet, the red LED flashes once quickly.     The connected load (i.e. light) will be on     automatically. 3. Press and hold the “SET” button for about     3 seconds, unit the red LED flashes once.      You may now release the “SET” button. 4.

D. You may operate the light with the programmed          transmitter. 6. If you are programming a transmitter with Timer     operation, continue to hold the “SET” button  for     another 6 seconds, until the LED is  on steadily,     then you may now follow steps 5A)  to 5C) to     complete the programming sequence. “PROG” switchPress thedesired buttonNote: To program other transmitters/sensors (besides TC transmitter), please refer to the instructions of thetransmitters/sensors.Note: You must complete the programming sequence within the 15-second interval, otherwise, the module will quit from programming mode and you need to start again from step 1 if the red LED is off. You may follow the same instructions to program additional transmitters or sensors to operate the receiver module. Number of Flashes12345As mentioned, the timer can be set to the following durations, 1  minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes. There is only one timer setting, so all transmitters that are programmed  in timer mode will have the same timer duration. To set the timer duration, follow the instructions below:1. Plug in the module to an AC socket so it is powered on properly.2. Turn off the connected load by a programmed transmitter. The load     must be off in order to set the timer duration.3. Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds, the red LED flashes      once. The number of flash indicates the timer duration:Timer Duration1 min.5 min.15 min.30 min.60 min.Note: Once the number of flash reaches 5, it will stay at this setting. If you would like to go back to other settings, such as 1 flash, release the button and repeat from step 1 to start over. Once a transmitter (button) is programmed in timer mode, activating this programmed transmitter (button) will turn on the light for the specified timer duration. During a timer count down, if the module receives another signal for timer operation, the timer will start again and overrides the previous timer, therefore, extending the on period by another timer interval. 4. Continue to hold the SET button until it reaches the desired setting. The     status will change every 6 seconds, i.e. hold onto the SET button for     another 6 seconds, you will see the number of flashes changes from 1      to 2, 2 to 3 etc.
