Tee March 27, 2007 March 27, 2007 Hi, I just bought this power strip timer. I follow the instruction, but it doesn't seem to work the way I want. Anybody use this timer before, and can give me some tip? http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod...p;N=2004+113351 After seting the time to turn on and off, I select "automatic". The yellow is for day time, and the blue is for night time. The power turn on randomly, instead of follow my set up (on at 10am and off at 9pm. Thanks a lot in advance, Tee
jamal March 27, 2007 March 27, 2007 i owned this timer before and it worked pretty well. on,offrandom,and automatic are the available options. im sure you have checked to make sure it is set to auto and not random. cycle through all four to make sure the other settings are working properly. if they are, and you have set it correctly the unit may just be defective. its hard to say with any certainty without being there to see it
Tee March 27, 2007 Author March 27, 2007 Yeah, I check AUTOMATIC, but it still turn on anf off randomly. I think it is defected.

Guest beatle March 27, 2007 March 27, 2007 I have the same timer. Push the PRG button and see what the other settings are. You may have some other programs that overlap the one(s) you're trying to run.

Very easy to have overlapping programs with this timer.
