This is the installation, programming and operating instruction booklet for the Rain Bird EZ-701-P, a seven day, single channel electronic time switch with a carry-over system and a photo-initiated security lighting circuit. The switch is a double pole double throw unit that turns an electrical load on and off according to a preset program, and it is intended for resistive or inductive loads or pilot duty. It is designed for use with an external photo-control to operate mechanically or electrically held contactors, with a security lighting circuit that runs dusk to dawn every day.
The booklet walks through mounting the case, connecting power and load wiring, and installing a 9 volt NiCad rechargeable battery for power carry-over. It then explains programming the clock and the ON and OFF times, reviewing and clearing set points, the two separately controlled SPDT relay closure outputs, photo-control programming, manual operation and a typical wiring diagram with a phone number for Rain Bird's Controls Division.
| Clock Power | 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 10 VA maximum |
|---|---|
| Switch Rating | 10 AMP resistive or inductive, each pole 240 VAC |
| Pilot Duty | 470 VA, each pole 120 or 240 VAC |
| Set Points | Minimum 15 set points per week, expandable to 105 with multiple day scheduling |
| Contact Closure Outputs | Two separately controlled SPDT relay closure outputs |
| Power Carry-Over | 9 volt NiCad rechargeable battery keeps the clock on time for up to 10 hours |
It has a minimum of 15 set points per week, and multiple day scheduling can expand the number of set points to 105.
With a fully charged 9 volt NiCad battery installed, the battery keeps the clock operating on time for up to 10 hours, while the load and display are off.
A flashing display indicates that a power outage has occurred; press the clock key and check the time of day.
Time of day is expressed in 2400 hour (military) time, for example 12:00 PM noon is 1200.
