7. Depanare

• Device does not turn on/off:
  • Ensure the timer is securely plugged into a working outlet.
  • Verify that the connected device is functioning correctly when plugged directly into an outlet.
  • Check the rotary dial setting. Is it set to OFF, or an incorrect timing mode?
  • Ensure the light sensor is not obstructed or covered, and that it is receiving appropriate ambient light for dusk/dawn detection.
• Timer cycles on/off erratically at dusk:
  • This can occur if the light sensor is exposed to fluctuating light levels (e.g., car headlights, flickering porch lights, or shadows). Reposition the timer to a location with more consistent ambient light.
• Interference with other devices (e.g., bug zappers):
  • Some devices, like bug zappers, can generate electrical frequency signals that interfere with the timer's operation. If experiencing issues, try plugging a single-plug surge protector between the timer and the interfering device.
