During a timer count down, if the Wall Switch receives another signal for
timer operation, the timer will start again and overrides the previous timer,
therefore, extending the On period by another timer interval.
To stop timer count down, press a programmed button for Switch mode.
5. ON / OFF OPERATION
Use the Wall Switch
To turn on / off the load, simply push the button of the wall switch once,
it will toggle the status of the light, i.e. from on to off or from off to on.
Use a Transmitter
When the programmed button of a transmitter is activated, it will transmit
a signal to toggle the status of the load. For example, if a toggle signal is
received when the light is off, that signal will turn on the light.
If you have a deluxe remote, you can make sure that you will actually turn
on a light by pressing [ ] first, then the programmed button. Similarly,
you can make sure that you will turn off a light by pressing [ ] first, then
the programmed button.
If you have a deluxe remote and you press [ ], all those receivers to
which the remote is programmed will turn on their loads. If you press
[ ], all those receivers to which the remote is programmed will turn
off their loads.
6. COUNTDOWN TIMER OPERATING MODE
If a transmitter or a sensor is programmed to the Wall Switch under the
timer mode, when that transmitter is activated, the light connected will be
on for the predetermined timer interval. After the timer interval, the light
will be off.
Pressing a programmed button can override the count-

down timer operation.
Note: The Countdown Timer Operation is also applicable to loads other
than lights.
7. ZONE OPERATION
An optional deluxe remote is needed for zone operation. A Zone Command
allows you to operate multiple lights altogether in the same zone.
A zone command must first be programmed to the receiver before zone
operation. To program a zone command, please refer to the user's
instructions of the deluxe remote.
Zone Operation - On / Off
Hold [ ] until the red LED flashes three times and keeps on, then
release [ ] and press [1], all lights in zone 1 will be turned off.
Note: The Zone Operation is also applicable to loads other than lights.
8. ERASING TRANSMITTERS FROM WALL SWITCH
