7-Day Time Switch With

Description
The Intermatic ET8000 Series Electronic Astronomic 7-Day Time
Switch automatically switches loads to a preset weekly schedule with
to-the-minute accuracy.
•	 The astronomic feature provides an automatically adjusted sunset
ON and sunrise OFF to eliminate the need for separate photo
control devices.
•	 The independent 7-day programming provides complete flexibility
for applications where load switching differs each day of the week.
•	 Astronomic programming can be combined with independent
programming to provide a sunset ON and timed OFF program.
Use the ET8000 series as an ON/OFF timer in applications requiring
7-day astronomic load control such as lighting, air conditioning systems,
pumps, etc. Each load output of the Time Switch can support up to 14
timed ON and 14 timed OFF events per day as well as Astro ON and
Astro OFF events. The program can be overridden by pushing the ON/
OFF load override button(s).
The ET8000 Series Time Switch is designed to directly switch tungsten or ballast loads up to its rating, and inductive or resistive loads
up to 30A at 120, 208, 240, or 277 VAC.

Programming Overview
By pressing the MODE button, the Time Switch will cycle through the
menus necessary for programming the current time, date, astro zone,
astro events, and timed events.
The basic procedure is to use the MODE button to move from one
menu to the next (e.g., DATE, TIME, etc.), the + or – buttons for the
first part of a setting (e.g., MONTH), the ENTER button to move to
the next part of the setting (e.g., YEAR), then MODE to exit and move
to the next menu. To skip a menu, press MODE to move ahead.
If you make a mistake, press the MODE button repeatedly to cycle
back around to the error, then make the correct entry.
NOTE: DATE and TIME must be set before you can access any
other programming menus.
