Overview

The TGT09 Astronomic Programmable Heavy Duty Digital Plug-In Timer is a versatile device designed to automate the control of lights and other loads, offering convenience, energy savings, and enhanced security. It features an astronomical function that automatically adjusts dusk and dawn times based on its programmed region, ensuring accurate operation throughout the year.

Function Description:

The primary function of the TGT09 is to provide scheduled ON/OFF control for connected devices. Users can program up to seven ON and seven OFF settings, allowing for a wide range of daily or weekly schedules. The timer supports three main operation modes:

  • Automatic Mode: In this mode, the timer strictly adheres to the programmed ON/OFF schedules, automatically turning lights or loads on and off as specified.
  • Manual Mode: This mode overrides all programmed schedules. Users can manually turn the connected device ON or OFF using the dedicated MAN button. This is useful for temporary control without altering the programmed settings.
  • Random Mode: Designed for security purposes, this mode randomly turns lights ON/OFF within a 30-minute window before or after the programmed times. This gives the impression that someone is home, deterring potential intruders.

The astronomical feature is a key differentiator, eliminating the need for manual adjustments to account for seasonal changes in daylight. The device automatically calculates and adjusts dusk and dawn times based on the user's selected region (North United States, Central United States, South United States, Mexico, Puerto Rico, or Hawaii).

A countdown timer function allows for temporary ON/OFF control for a specified duration, after which the device returns to its programmed mode. This is useful for tasks that require a device to be on for a set period.

The timer also includes a Daylight Savings Time (DST) adjustment feature, which can be toggled ON or OFF, automatically adapting to DST changes without user intervention.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Voltage: 120VAC, 60Hz
  • Resistive Load: 15A, 1800W
  • Tungsten Load: 1200W
  • Standard Ballast Load: 1200VA
  • LED Load: 150W
  • Motor Load: 1/2Hp
  • Compatibility: Works with CFL, LED, and incandescent bulbs.

These specifications highlight the timer's heavy-duty capability, making it suitable for a wide range of appliances and lighting types.

Usage Features:

The TGT09 is designed for user-friendly operation, with a clear display and intuitive button layout.

  • Setting the Clock and Date: The SET button is used to access clock and date settings, with UP/DOWN buttons for adjustment. An AM/PM indicator ensures correct time setting.
  • Programming ON/OFF Times: The PRG button allows users to scroll through and set up to seven ON/OFF programs. The astronomical feature can be integrated into these programs for dusk/dawn-based control.
  • Region Selection: Users can select their geographical region to enable accurate astronomical calculations for dusk and dawn times.
  • Manual Override: The MAN button provides instant manual control, allowing users to turn the connected load ON or OFF without affecting programmed schedules. Holding the MAN button for 3 seconds activates the countdown timer.
  • Mode Selection: The M/D button cycles through Automatic, Manual, and Random operation modes.
  • Dusk/Dawn Adjustment: Dedicated buttons allow for fine-tuning of the calculated dusk and dawn times if needed.
  • Daylight Savings Time (DST): The device can be configured to automatically adjust for DST.
  • Reset Function: A RESET button allows users to restore all settings to factory defaults.
  • Indicators: The display provides various indicators, including the day of the week, clock, AM/PM, DST status, timer status, and ON/OFF status of the connected load.

Maintenance Features:

  • Battery Backup: The timer includes a battery backup feature, ensuring that all programmed settings are retained during power outages. This eliminates the need for reprogramming after a power interruption.
  • Durability: The device is warranted to be free of material and workmanship defects for 1 year from the date of purchase, indicating a commitment to quality and reliability.

In summary, the TGT09 Astronomic Programmable Heavy Duty Digital Plug-In Timer is a robust and intelligent solution for automating lighting and appliance control. Its astronomical feature, multiple operating modes, heavy-duty specifications, and user-friendly interface make it a valuable tool for enhancing convenience, security, and energy efficiency in homes and businesses.
