MODEL LST200 / LST200+ DUAL EVENT DIGITAL WALL SWITCH TIMER
INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Introduction

The LST200 / LST200+ can replace your regular or 3-way switch (where two
switches control the same device) to control a light or any device plugged into an
outlet with a load up to 15 Amps; the maximum rating on the timer label.

The LST200 / LST200+ also has an exclusive manual On-Demand Delayed OFF
mode that enables the user to leave the room while the light is ON and the timer
automatically shuts the load OFF after a preset amount of time without interfering
with programmed AUTOMATIC times or controls.

The LST200 / LST200+ timer can control incandescent lights, compact fluorescent
lights, fluorescent lights, flood lights, LED lights, fans and motors.

You will need to use a Decorator style wall plate with this timer which is not
supplied.

The timer must be mounted into a standard single or multi-ganged electrical box.

Read wiring instructions carefully and follow guidelines applicable to your
installation.

Single Switch (Single Pole Installation):

3. Connect the black building wire from the Main Power Panel to the black wire
from the timer, using the wire nuts provided. Connect the blue wire from the
timer to the black wire going to the load. Connect together the white wire from
the main power cable to the white wire from the timer and the white wire to
the load.
THE RED WIRE IS NOT USED FOR SINGLE SWITCH INSTALLATIONS.
Cap the red wire with a wire nut.
BE SURE that ALL the WIRE NUTS are TIGHT and SECURE.

3-way Switch Installation:

4. A three way switch has three wires connected to it. One of the wires is
“common” (the terminal has a different colored screw or there are markings
on the old switch). Connect the Black wire from the timer to the common
wire, Connect the other two wires to the Blue and Red wires from the timer (it
doesn’t matter which goes to which.)

5. Connect together the white wire from the main power cable to the white wire
from the timer and the white wire to the load.

6. Tuck the wires into the wall box leaving room for the timer. BE SURE that ALL
the WIRE NUTS are TIGHT and SECURE.

7. Using the screws provided, mount the timer securely to the wall box then
install the wall plate.

8. Return the power to the circuit at the service panel. The display starts
flashing “12:00 AM” see Operating Instructions to program the device.

Alternate 3-way Switch Installation:

9. For alternate 3-way Switch Installation, connect each wire as shown above.

10. Tuck the wires into the wall box leaving room for the timer. BE SURE that ALL
the WIRE NUTS are TIGHT and SECURE.

11. Using the screws provided, mount the timer securely to the wall box then
install the wall plate.

Operating Modes

The LST200/LST200+ has 4 operating modes. The Mode switch determines which
mode you are in

1. MAN / PRGM (Manual / Program) this mode allows the setting of the Clock
time and the Timer ON and OFF times. In this position the timer is
disabled.

2. VARI (Variable) in this mode the timer is enabled and the ON and OFF
time settings will be altered plus or minus 15 minutes to confuse possible
intruders.

3. AUTO RUN (Automatic Run) in this mode the timer ON and OFF settings
are enabled as programmed.

4. Delayed OFF Mode. See Operation of Delayed OFF Mode below. The
position of the Mode switch is irrelevant.

Rocker Switch

The rocker switch at the base of the unit will override any current settings. If the
device is ON, the switch will turn it OFF, if OFF, it will turn the device ON.

If the device is in Delayed OFF mode and the light is ON, the switch will turn the
light OFF.

power is restored the Clock time will be re-displayed.

Set Timer ON / OFF times

Setting the dual ON and OFF times referred to as Events 1 & 2 (E:1 & E:2) on the
display. When the Mode switch is placed in the Manual position the display will
show the Event to be programmed. The Event will start with E:1 when the unit is
programmed or reset. The Event number will change each time the Mode switch is
moved into the Manual position. Once set up, the programmed times are stored in
solid state memory and need never be programmed again unless desired by the
user. If you encounter a power failure the programmed event times will not be lost.

Timer ON / OFF:

1. Position the Display Time slide switch to the Right position to TIME ON
for Event 1 (E:1) programming.

2. Position the Operating Mode set slide switch to Left position to
MAN/PRGM (Manual / Program)

3. Depress the UP or DOWN button and hold for 2 seconds, the time will
begin to scroll slowly in the direction you have selected. After 5
seconds, the time will scroll rapidly. There is an AM / PM indicator on

evening.

4. Position the Display Time slide switch to the Left position to TIME OFF
for Event 1 (E:1) programming.

5. Depress the UP or DOWN button and hold for 2 seconds, the time will
begin to scroll slowly in the direction you have selected. After 5
seconds, the time will scroll rapidly. There is an AM / PM indicator that
will appear to indicate morning or evening.

6. Move the Operating Mode slide switch to the VARI position and back to
MAN/PRGM (Manual / Program) to program Event 2 (E:2). Repeat
steps 1 thru 5.

7. Either Event is disabled when the TIME ON equals the TIME OFF.

8. Position Operating Mode slide switch to the VARI or AUTO RUN
position to enable the timer.

Note: To disable either Event (E:1 or E:2), the Event TIME ON must be
programmed to equal the TIME OFF.

Operation of Manual Delayed OFF Mode:

The Model LST200 / LST200+ Digital Wall Switch Timer is capable of leaving the
light or load ON while leaving a room or building and automatically turning the light
OFF after a factory pre-set amount of time after 10 minutes without user
programming. This function does not interfere with pre-programmed times or
cycles.

NOTE - The clock time must be set first or you cannot use the Delayed OFF
mode. If the Timer is in an automatic ON cycle, the Delayed OFF mode will
not function.

1. The manual Delayed OFF mode is activated by ANY two consecutive
transitions of one (1) second or less of the rocker switch. The position of
the Display switch or Mode switch is irrelevant. i.e., If the load is ON,
turn the Rocker switch OFF then ON or if the load is OFF, then turn the
Rocker switch ON then OFF quickly.

2. The display will show a factory pre-set count down value of ten (10)
minutes for the count down cycle. The ON indicator will turn on, the
AM/PM indicators will turn off, the load will turn ON, and the time will
start decrementing at one (1) minute intervals. At the end of the count
down cycle, the load will turn OFF.

3. The count down value can be changed at any time by pressing the UP
or DOWN buttons. A maximum value of sixty (60) minutes or a minimum
value of one (1) minute can be set. The Delayed OFF can be stopped
before the end of the cycle by moving the rocker switch to the other

position, or by moving the remote 3-way switch (if wired) to the other
position.
