Smart Digital Wall Switch Timer Instructions
Caution
If you are unsure or unclear about this installation, or if the wires in your box do not
match this instruction manual, contact a licensed electrician.
Not all switch boxes have neutral wires.
Single Pole Installation Instructions:
1. Turn off the main power at the fuse box / circuit breaker panel.
2. Remove existing light switch or timer currently installed in the wall.
3. Connect the wires of the timer to the wires in the wall box using the wire nuts provided.
a. Connect the HOT/line wire from wall box to the black wire from the timer.
b. Connect the HOT/load wire from the wall box to the blue wire from the timer.
c. Connect the ground wire from the wall box to the green wire from the timer.
d. Connect the neutral wires from the wall box (if available) to the white wire from the timer.
e. Attach wire nut to red wire from back of timer. This wire is not needed in single pole installations.
4. Ensure all wire nuts are tight and secure.
5. Gently tuck all wires into wall box, allowing room at the front of the wall box for the timer. Mount the timer to
the wall box utilizing the screws provided. Use caution to not crush or pinch any wires.
6. Turn on the main power at fuse box / circuit breaker panel.
Existing 3-Way Installation (Line Side)
The maximum distance allowed between the timer and the switch is 100 feet
Timer on Line Side
1. Remove power from the circuit by removing fuse or switching off circuit breaker.
2. Remove the line side 3-way switch and remove wires. Be sure to label the wire (1) removed from common terminal.
3. Connect the wire from the common terminal, (1) to the black wire of the timer using the supplied wire nut.
4. Connect the white wire (1) of the timer to the white wire from the switch and the white wire from the load (all neutral) with
a wire nut properly sized for the number of wires connected. The neutral wires may be bundled in the back of the switch box
with a wire nut. There may be several neutral wires bound together. Add the neutral to all neutral wires bound together
making sure the wire nut is tight.
5. Connect the two remaining wires to the red wire (T) and blue wire (3) of the timer.
6. Connect the green wire (G) to the ground wire (green or bare copper) from the box.
7. Check all connections then gently tuck all wires into wall box, allowing room at the front of the wall box for the timer.
8. Mount the timer to the wall box utilizing the screws provided. Use caution to not crush or pinch any wires.
Switch on Load Side
1. Remove the load side 3-way switch and label the wire from the common terminal, (3).
2. Connect jumper wire (Provided) from the switch to both the load wire and wire from the common terminal, (3). You will
have 3 wires connected with one wire nut.
3. Connect the jumper back to the common input of the 3-way switch.
4. The other wire (T) should stay connected to one of the other connections of the 3-way switch.
5. Gently tuck all wires into wall box, allowing room at the front of the wall box for the timer.
6. Mount the switch to the wall box utilizing the screws provided. Use caution to not crush or pinch any wires.
7. Restore power at the fuse box or circuit breaker panel.
8. Manually turn the timer ON and OFF to verify that the load turns on and off. Perform test with remote switch in both
positions.
9. If the load does not operate, remove power from the circuit by removing fuse or switching off circuit breaker.
9. Swap Load wire (3 ) with traveler wire (T) on either the timer or remote switch.
10. Restore power at the fuse box or circuit breaker panel.
11. Manually turn the timer ON and OFF to verify that the load turns on and off. Perform test with remote switch in both
positions. You should hear an audible click as the timer relay alternates between ON and OFF positions. If you hear the
click, but the load does not turn ON / OFF properly, recheck all wiring starting at Step 1.
Existing 3-Way Installation (Load Side)
(The maximum distance between timer and 3-way switch is 100ft)
Switch on Line Side
1. Remove power from the branch circuit by removing fuse or turning off the circuit breaker.
2. Remove the Line side 3 way switch.
3. Remove and label the wire attached to the common Terminal (1) and remove one of the other wires attached to this switch.
4. Using the supplied wire nuts connect the wire removed from the common, (1) the second wire that was removed from the
switch and the black jumper (supplied with the timer), together.
5. Connect the black jumper back to the common connection of the switch.
6. If the two wires wire (1) and wire (T) on the switch are colored or marked so you can tell them apart record their markings
for use later.
7. Replace the wires and the switch into the box.
Timer on Load Side
1. Remove the load side 3-way switch label the wire attached to the common terminal (3) and remove all 3 wires.
2. Connect the common wire (labeled) to the timer blue wire.
3. Connect wire (1) to the timer black (line) wire.
4. Connect wire (T) to the timer red (traveler) wire.
5. Connect the white wire (2) of the timer to the white wire from the switch and the white wire from the load (all neutral)
using a wire nut properly sized for the number of wires connected. The neutral wires may be bundled in the back of the
switch box with a wire nut. There may be several neutral wires bound together. Add the neutral to all neutral wires bound
together making sure the wire nut is tight.
6. Connect the green wire (G) of the timer to ground in the switch box.
7. Tuck the wires into the switch box leaving room for the timer.
8. Use the supplied screws to install the timer being careful not to crush or pinch the wires.
9. Restore power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
10. If the timer display does not turn on, you may need to swap wire (1) and wire (5). This can be done at the timer or toggle
switch, after removing power from the circuit at the fuse box or circuit breaker.
11. Verify that the load turns ON and OFF when you manually turn the timer ON and OFF. Perform this test with the remote
switch in both positions. You should hear the timer relay click ON/OFF. If you hear the relay click but the load does not turn
ON/OFF properly, check your wiring
