Instruction Manual
⚠️ Warning: Please pay attention to the warning signs. Read the instructions with caution before operating and keep this manual properly.
⚠️ Warning: This timer should be installed by a licensed electrician. Turn power off at the main panel before servicing this switch or the equipment it controls.
IMPORTANT: For outdoor use. Rain-tight or wet location conduit, hubs, tubing, and cable fittings that comply with requirements of UL 514B must be used for installation.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS before using the Timer Box.
The Jewenwils Outdoor Digital Timer Box is depicted as a rectangular enclosure with a hinged front cover. When opened, the interior reveals a central timer module with a digital display and control buttons. Below the timer module are two indicator lights: a Load Indicator and a Power Indicator. On the sides and bottom of the enclosure, there are circular knockouts for electrical conduit connections. The overall design suggests a robust, weather-resistant build suitable for outdoor electrical control.
⚠️ WARNING: Risk of Fire or Electric Shock. Read instructions thoroughly before installation and preserve for future reference.
Disconnect power at the circuit breaker and test if power is off before installing (or servicing) the Timer Box (more than one circuit breaker or disconnect switch may be required to fully disconnect power).
Wiring must be in accordance with all national and local electrical code requirements. Inspect all terminals and wires with a voltage meter before touching. The maximum total load to be controlled must not exceed the Timer Box capacity.
The Timer Box enclosure does not provide grounding between conduit connectors. When metallic conduit is used, you must also install grounding type bushings and jumper wires in accordance with National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements.
A diagram of the Timer Box terminals shows a layout with two switches, S1 and S2, and various connection points. The terminals are labeled as follows:
Below the diagram, the legend defines the terms:
Note: The Timer Box is capable of being configured for 120 VAC, 240VAC, or 277VAC.
*J1 & J2 are jumper wires for the timer power supply.
This diagram illustrates the wiring for a single 120VAC load. The L (Line) and N (Neutral) inputs connect to the timer. A jumper wire (J1) connects the Neutral terminal to COM1. The load is connected between NO1 and the Neutral line. The timer's power supply is derived from the 120VAC input, with N connected to the timer's N and L connected to the timer's L. The load is controlled via the NO1 terminal.
This diagram shows the wiring for two 120VAC loads. Similar to the single load setup, L and N inputs connect to the timer, and a jumper wire (J1) connects Neutral to COM1. Load 1 is connected between NO1 and Neutral. Load 2 is connected between NO2 and Neutral. An additional wire (A) connects COM1 to COM2. Note: The wire connecting COM1 with COM2 should use the same gauge as the load wire.
This diagram details wiring for a single 240VAC load. L1 and L2 inputs connect to the timer. A jumper wire (J1) connects L1 to COM1, and another jumper wire (J2) connects L2 to COM2. The 240VAC load is connected between NO1 and NO2. The timer's power supply is derived from L1 and L2.
This diagram shows wiring for two 277VAC loads. L and N inputs connect to the timer. A jumper wire (J1) connects Neutral to COM1. Load 1 is connected between NO1 and Neutral. Load 2 is connected between NO2 and Neutral. An additional wire (A) connects COM1 to COM2. Note: The wire connecting COM1 with COM2 should use the same gauge as the load wire.
This diagram shows a typical wiring setup for a hot water heater. A 120VAC hot water tank is connected to a circuit breaker box. The Timer Box is integrated into the circuit. The 120VAC lines from the circuit breaker (L1 and L2, forming a 240VAC dual-phase supply) connect to the Timer Box. Jumper wires J1 and J2 are used within the timer box to supply power to the timer module. The hot water heater's 120VAC lines are then routed through the timer's NO1 and NO2 terminals, allowing the timer to control the power to the hot water tank. The diagram indicates both 120VAC and 240VAC connections from the circuit breaker to the timer and the hot water tank.
IMPORTANT: Please refer to the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION SHEET. The Timer Box must be installed before programming.
Before programming, all settings should be reset. Use a paper clip or ball pen to poke the reset hole identified by "R" under the "R/RECALL" button. Refer to Figure 1 (for operating instructions), which shows a digital display initially showing "88:88:88" with all days of the week (MO TU WE TH FR SA SU) and "PROG AUTO" indicators. After a few seconds, the display resets to "00:00" with only "MO" and "AUTO OFF" visible, indicating a successful reset.
Note: The timer should operate in the "AUTO ON" or "AUTO OFF" mode. See "Switching Mode Indication" section.
The actual mode is shown on the display as "ON", "AUTO ON", "OFF", or "AUTO OFF" together with the time of day. Press the "ON/AUTO/OFF" button to adjust to the desired setting mode.
As an independent programming, it is possible to advance to the next switching command at any time by continually pressing the "MANUAL" button, as shown by the sequence: AUTO OFF → ON → AUTO ON → OFF.
Press and hold the "CLOCK" button for 3 seconds to advance the current time by 1 hour; a "+1h" icon will appear on the display. Press and hold the "CLOCK" button for 3 seconds again to decrease 1 hour, and the "+1h" icon will disappear. Refer to Figure 8, which shows a display initially set to "TH 8:00" and then, after pressing the CLOCK button, changing to "TH 9:00" with a "+1h" indicator, illustrating the DST adjustment.
In the event of a power outage, the timer will retain its settings for an estimated 3 months if the power backup is fully charged.
