7. Penyelesaian masalah
If the PE153 is not functioning as expected, consider the following basic troubleshooting steps:
- Tiada Paparan/Kuasa:
- Check the main circuit breaker for the timer and connected equipment.
- Verify that the power supply wiring to the "TIMER POWER" terminals is secure and correct.
- The unit has a 36-hour backup time for settings during power outages; however, prolonged outages may require resetting the time.
- Equipment Not Turning ON/OFF:
- Confirm that the program settings for the specific circuit are correct (ON/OFF times, days).
- Check the manual ON/OFF button for the circuit to ensure it's not in an overridden state.
- Inspect the wiring connections for the affected circuit (LINE and LOAD) to ensure they are secure.
- Verify that the connected equipment is functioning correctly independently of the timer.
- Masa/Tarikh yang salah:
- Access the programming menu using the PROG button and adjust the time and date settings as needed.
For persistent issues or complex problems, it is recommended to contact Intermatic customer support or a qualified electrician.
