EXTERNAL CONTROL - Setting this switch to ON places unit in External Trigger Mode which utilizes pins 1
through 4 of the CONTROL connector on the rear of the scenting unit. This mode allows for control of the unit
from an external device such as an iLink LCD digital message repeater from Nel-Tech Labs. If this switch is set
to ON then ALL other switch settings will be ignored.
24H CONTINUOUS - Setting this switch ON will put the unit in Continuous Operation Mode. Unit will run 24
hours a day - non stop. If this switch is set it will IGNORE the CYCLE ON-OFF settings.
CYCLE ON-OFF - Setting any of these switches will put the unit in a Timed Cycle Mode. These switches can be
turned ON in any combination.
Example 1 - If a 4 hour on then off cycle is needed, then just the 4h switch would be set to ON.
Example 2 - If a 6 hour on then off cycle is needed, then the 2h & 4h switch would be set to ON.
CYCLE ON-OFF mode will only operate if the 24h and External Control switch are OFF.
