EC74/50S 365-Day Four Channel Time
Control
I. INTRODUCTION
The EC74/50S is a 365-day, four channel, microprocessor­based time control. It is ideal for lighting or HVAC control in which time-of-day scheduling is common. The programmable momentary feature provides a 1 to 59 second momentary contact closure for applications such as bell ringing, urinal flushing, synchronous wall clock correction and operating mechanical latching relays. The enclosure is made of durable noncorrosive plastic for years of life.
II. SPECIFICATIONS
Programming Capabilities
• Seven-day programming using 365-day calendar with eighth day as a holiday program.
• 16 holiday durations programmable by date.
• 50 set points. A set point can be assigned to any day or to any combination of days. Each of the 4 circuits can be independently programmed.
• Each set point can be either an ON, OFF or momentary type event. A programmable momentary duration of 1-59 seconds can be entered for each of the 4 circuits.
• 12-hour (A.M./P.M.) or 24-hour clock format.
• Automatic daylight-saving time changeover with yearly compensation.
• Keyboard override until next programmed event.
• 3-second stagger up between loads.
• Leap year corrected.
• Keyboard programming.
• LCD display of time-of-day and day of week. Circuit status indicated by LEDs (if LED is lit, output relay is energized as a result of a programmed ON or an override).

III. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Mount the control in an environment that is free from exces­sive contaminants such as oil, moisture, or dirt.
EC74/50S Mounting
1.Remove control from case by pushing outward the two clips
on the left and right within case, and carefully lift control out.
2.Mount case in a vertical position using mounting holes pro-
vided (see Figure 1).
3.Replace control into case by sliding control under tabs at
the top of the case. Push down and clips snap into place.
Figure 1.
Dimensions of EC74/50S
Conduit Connections:
1.Remove desired center knockouts by placing screwdrivers
on inner ring groove by the arrow (see figure 2), then care­fully apply a solid rap on the handle of the screwdriver with hand or hammer.
2.Remove outer ring, if necessary, by placing screwdriver
into groove by the arrow (see figure 2) and punch inward. Smooth the opening's rim with round file or knife.
3.Attach conduit connector first to the conduit, then attach
the conduit connector to the knockout hole using the con­nector lock nut. To prevent unnecessary stress on enclo­sure walls, conduit should be aligned and supported.
Wiring:

1.Wire 24, 120 or 240 Vac to input terminals, depending on
the model selected. Terminals can accommodate 12 to 24 AWG wire. CAUTION: Damage will occur to unit if incorrect voltage is applied. Application of incorrect input voltage will void warranty.
2.Connect output wiring as required for the particular appli-
cation.
3.Install a 9V alkaline battery (not provided). Remove battery
cover. See Figure 3 below. Snap battery into battery clip. Replace battery cover.
4.Maintenance-The EC74/50S has been carefully engineered
for reliability and safety; therefore, the only maintenance required is to replace the 9V battery approximately every two years. A battery log is provided to write down battery replacement dates. Do not use any type of cleaning agent on the liquid crystal display or the front panel.

V. PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
The EC74/50S is easy to program. The sequence outlined here is the logical order of programming. First, you will want to program the time-of-day, day of week, date, and year. Then you can program set points according to your applica­tion (refer to Application Examples, Section VI for sample programming). You program the start time of the set point only, and you do not program the stop time. The starting of the next programmed set point terminates the present set point.
For your convenience, the control can be programmed with­out line power by using battery carryover. Relays, however, will not operate without line power.

NOTES:
1.When the unit is first powered, the display will show “24
Hr.” Press the Enter key to select 24 hour format. Press the AM/PM key to select 12 hour format. (The display will change to midnight on Sunday with the period flashing.)
2.The unit's memory can be cleared by disconnecting line
voltage and carryover battery.
3.For relay state to change, time must run through the set
point starting time (for example, programming an 8:00 a.m. start time when it is already 9:00 a.m. will not change relay state); use override to change state immediately.
4.A zero must precede the hours, minutes, month and dates
which are less than ten (Example-04/01 is April 1st).
5.The day of week is displayed as follows: 1=Sunday,
2=Monday, 3=Tuesday, 4=Wednesday, 5=Thursday, 6=Friday, 7=Saturday, and 8=Holiday.
6.In all programming modes, if a keying error is made, press
CLR then reprogram entire sequence of number keys.

C. To Program Set Points
The EC74/50S offer three event choices: ON, OFF, or pulse (momentary contact) event. The EC74/50S has 50 set points assignable to any or all of the four channels.
NOTES:
1.A set point can be assigned to any single day or to any combination of days.
2.Programming a set point involves two stages: the first screen displays circuit (channel) number to be programmed and the second screen displays event type.
3.The “E” key serves as a forward advance key. The “9” serves as a reverse key.
Step Key Description

or 4
3 E Enters circuit number; “--.-- -” appears. 4 #### Key in time of event (and A.M./P.M. if neces-
sary).

more than one day is desired, key in additional days. (Days programmed will flash on display in sequence.)
NOTE: A day already entered can be removed by pressing the number key representing that day.
6 TYP Select a single event type. Press once and a
dash appears on the lower right of the display selecting an ON event. Press TYP key a second time to remove dash from lower right of display selecting an OFF event. Press TYP key a third time and a flashing dash appears on the lower right of display selecting a pulse (momentary contact) event.

played.

second is the default). Circuit number appears
in the lower right of display. 2 CLR Duration vanishes and two dashes appear. 3 ## Key in desired pulse duration in seconds for cir-
cuit 1. 4 E Enters duration. Duration for circuit 2 is dis-
played.
Repeat steps 2-4 for circuits 2, 3 and 4.

Repeat step 2 for remaining channels.
3 RUN Exits review.
G. To Initiate Manual Override NOTE: Program can be overridden temporarily or until the
next set point. If not toggled back out of override, override will stay in effect until next set point. When circuit (channel) is overridden, LED changes status.
Step Key Description
1 OVR “cir” is displayed. 2 1, 2, 3 Override takes effect immediately.
or 4
Repeat steps 1 and 2 to return to initial state, if desired.
3 RUN Exits review.
H. To Program Holiday NOTES:
1.On programmed holidays, the special holiday schedule for each of the four circuits applies.
2.For a single day holiday, program the end month/day the
same as the start month/day.
3.The E key is a forward advance key.
4.The EC74/50S has 16 holidays. Holidays may be one day
or a holiday interval may be up to 366 days. The start and end dates need not be in the same calendar year. A multi­ple day holiday counts as a single holiday.
Step Key Description

Troubleshooting Tips
16
Problem
Nothing happens when a setpoint occurs to turn a load ON or OFF.
Manual override does not work.
Clock display is locked up, garbled, or meaningless.
Control does not operate after programming.
Solution
• Review programmed set­points making sure the day has not been skipped.
• Check input power to control.
• Insure the clock is not in a holiday mode (Day 8).
• Check if manual override changes the load's state (i.e. ON to OFF, OFF to ON). If it does not see next problem/solution.
• Check the load for proper wiring. Remember, the EC74/50S contacts switch only what is applied to them. (Dry or isolated contacts.)
• Disconnect battery and input power to the con­trol for 1 minute. Re­apply power and repro­gram.
• If programming was per­formed (changing clock time or entering a set­point) the control will not update itself. Override the desired circuit until the next setpoint.
