To access the Clocks "Light Clock" Screen press the Tab Key under "L. Clock", if
the light clock is assigned to an Output relay(s) or Light Dimmer is answered "YES".
An event is defined as an ON At plus OFF At time combination for the relay(s)
assigned to the light clock. The ON At and OFF At times refer to the contacts of the
Output relay(s). On means the contacts are closed and Off means the contacts are
open. 12:00a is midnight. If there are no Output relays assigned to the light clock and/
or the Light Dimmer control is set to YES then the statement "Not Set Up" will
appear in the light clock Screen.
If the light clock curve is set to ON, then the current light clock settings will not be
editable. To temporarily change the current light clock settings, first set the curve to
OFF, then make the desired changes. To return to the curve settings, change the curve
back to ON.
1. Minimum Light Dimmer Setting-This is the minimum light level the lights will
go to when the light clock reaches an OFF At time.
2. Maximum Light Dimmer Setting-This is the maximum light level the lights will
go to when the light clock reaches an ON At time.
3. The light clock can also be set to control a remote light dimmer. When the con-
trol is connected to a light dimmer a Sunrise and Sunset feature is available. The
amount of Sunrise or Sunset time can be set in the Setup-Controls: Other screen
(Screen 14-Others Tab).
4. When the light clock reaches an ON At time, the control will increase the light
percentage from the Min% level to the Max% level over the amount of Sunrise
time. If the Sunrise time is set to 0 then the control will instantly change the
light percentage from the Min% level to the Max% level at the ON At time. The
Sunrise feature will occur for every ON At time of an event.
5. When the light clock reaches an OFF At time, the control will decrease the light
percentage from the Max% level to the Min% level over the amount of Sunset
time. If the Sunset time is set to 0 then the control will instantly change the light
percentage from the Max% level to the Min% level at the OFF At time. The
Sunset feature will occur at every OFF At time of an event.
If the control is connected to a remote light dimmer, it is not necessary to have an
Output relay assigned to the light clock. If there is a relay assigned to the light clock
