5. Initial Setup & Resetting

If the screen is blank or behaving erratically upon first use:

Connect the unit to power. The screen should light up.
If the display shows gibberish or buttons don't respond, locate the small [R] (Reset) hole usually located on the front panel.
Use a paperclip or toothpick to press the Reset button gently.
The screen will clear, and the time will reset to 12:00 (or 00:00). You are now ready to program.

Step 1: Choose Your Mode (The "F" Codes)

Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds. The screen will flash F-1 (or similar). Use the ∧ or ∨ keys to scroll through the modes. Here is the manual’s mode chart translated: Connect the unit to power

F-1: Delay on. After power-up, relay activates after time P1.
F-2: Single shot. A trigger signal activates the relay for time P1, then it turns off.
F-3: Cyclic on first. Relay ON for P1, OFF for P2, repeat.
F-4: Cyclic off first. Relay OFF for P1, ON for P2, repeat.
F-5: Signal delay-off. Relay turns off P1 time after trigger signal ends.
F-6 to F-11: Advanced memory and trigger modes (rarely used in basic applications).

For 90% of users, F-3 (cycling) or F-1 (simple delay) is the choice.

Step 1: Reset (First Time Use)

Before setting, it is recommended to reset the unit to clear any existing data.

Use a thin object (like a paperclip) to press the RESET button (usually a small hole on the front or side).
The display should show 00:00 or the default time.

Problem 2: The timer turns on/off at the wrong time (e.g., 1 hour off)

Cause: You have accidentally selected a cycle mode (Mode 2 or similar) instead of a standard 24-hour mode.
Fix: Re-enter program mode. Check the top of the LCD for symbols like "H" (hours cycle) or "M" (minutes cycle). Press and hold the UP/DOWN buttons together to change the global mode back to 24H.
