Installation and Setup Instructions With Supercapacitor Carryover

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Notice for ET8415 Time Switch

This document explains the setup and conguration of the Intermatic ET8415 4-Circuit Electronic Astronomic

7-Day Time Switch. The ET8415 time switch automatically switches loads to a preset weekly schedule. The time

switch can support up to 28 xed ON and 28 xed OFF events (56 total) and up to four Astro events. Each event

can be applied to any combination of circuits and days.

The time switch features an LCD and panel-mounted control buttons to set, review, and monitor the time switch

functions, including enabling or disabling Daylight Saving Time (DST) and conguring DST switchover dates.

Follow these instructions to complete the installation and programming for the ET8415 time switch.

WARNING

MODEL ET8415CR

NOTICE

Follow these instructions to install the time switch.

1. Open the time switch enclosure door.

2. Press the catch at the top of the case and pull out the mechanism from the case.

3. Choose a knockout to remove from the enclosure.

NOTE: There are five 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch combination knockouts available. There are

two on the bottom of the enclosure, one on each side, and one on the rear.

4. Insert a athead screwdriver into the slot of a 1/2 inch knockout and punch loose and

remove.

NOTE: If a 3/4 inch knockout is needed, remove the 1/2 inch knockout first, then the

outer ring. Smooth edge if necessary.

Do not touch the circuit board components. Contact with the circuit board components can create static discharge, which can

damage the microprocessor.

Risk of Fire or Electric Shock

Snap out catch Tilt top forward

5. Place the enclosure in the desired location, position at eye level, and provide space for the enclosure door to swing open fully.

6. Drill the holes and then clean out each hole.

7. Insert plastic anchors into the holes, if needed.

IMPORTANT: If you are bringing power wires and wires for connecting applications through the back of the enclosure,

connect the wires before mounting the enclosure. Refer to the wiring diagrams in this manual.

8. Insert the top screw into the top hole and tighten. Hang enclosure.

9. Insert the remaining screws into the other holes and tighten.

10. Replace the time switch in the enclosure.

11. Remove and retain the screw that secures the plastic insulator.

12. Lift the left side of the plastic insulator off the retaining post and pivot it away to expose the terminal strip.

NOTE: Do not remove the insulator.

13. Strip the supply and load wires to 1/2”. Use AWG#10-#18 copper conductors only.

14. Connect the wires to the proper terminals on the time switch connector and tighten the screws firmly.

See wire diagrams.

15. Connect ground wire to grounding terminal at the bottom of the enclosure.

NOTE: Make sure no wire insulation is caught in the terminal.

16. Return the insulator to its original position and replace the screw.

17. Close the enclosure door.

18. Apply power to the time switch.

The time switch operational modes enable users to control multiple loads simultaneously (SIM), independently (IND), or with a

2-second pulse (PUL). In PUL mode an ON event or manual override causes the rst circuit to turn ON for two seconds, then OFF. An

OFF event or manual override causes the second circuit to turn ON for two seconds, then OFF. Loads 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 can be set to

different operational modes.

To combine Astronomic and xed events, only program one event in each ON/OFF event pair for both Astro and Fixed events. For

example, a combination Astro and xed event schedule could be a Sunset ON and a Fixed event off for 10 P.M. It is recommended to

determine your facility schedules in advance and then program the time switch. If applicable, different combinations can be congured

for different loads.

Follow these guidelines to congure a combination Astro and Fixed Event schedule.
