How do I program this timer? What does it mean to push down the joint slices? What are they? Where do I find them? Thanks.

All of the black portion of the ring that you can spin are the "joint slices." You depress them or elevate them by pressing down or lifting up on them with your fingernail to set what portions of the ring (time) you want the device to provide power at.

The black "teeth" that surround the circular dial each represent 30 mins. Click it out or in to choose if you want that period of time to be on or not. (Don't worry, took me a bit to figure out as well).

The little black levers (first row) around the entire time dial get pushed down for the time you want the timer to be "on". I usually set the time to the current time (turn the dial) and then push down the black "levers" starting with one or two before the current time (this allows the unit to start up once it is plugged in). It's difficult to push just one lever down at a time so push a few down and then pull back those you don't want. Hope that helps

Each joint splice is an on or an off trigger. So to program, select your interval and have a splice upright (use a small needle nose plier) with a slight pull up to raise it above the others. Then for the off interval select another and pull it out. I think that all when in the recessed position are out of duty until set.

You unplug it and buy something else! I had one of these and it was IMPOSSIBLE to set, keep time, etc. It was very satisfying to end its usefil life against my garage floor!! If you have not bought it yet, don't. If you have, sorry!

How does it turn off but not ON? Is that manually? Or via z-wave commands? If it is Manual issue check your installation, if timer was not installed properly (if it does not fit flush with the wall) then I would re install and make sure this time it installs flush with the wall. A Simpson of this is that it only works on one direction and the other direction seems not to work unless you push really hard on it. If it is via z-wave commands then let me know and I will update this post. Hope it helps

It is a count down timer which is very loud, and it will do exactly what you need it to. Good Luck! Herb

I never used the timer...so I guess you should be able to disable it. Wish I could be more helpful

I don't have one, I was looking for a timer and saw this question. I don't know if this will help, but I found this online: GE 15153 Instructions Light side of dial is am hours; Dark side is pm hours Segments located on outer edge of dial For example, set timer ON from 5pm to 11 pm: When segments are down, timer is ON. Lift all segments, except segments between 5 and 11. Rotate dial until current time lines up with arrowhead Move switch to TIMER ON Turn lamp ON, bulb is good, plug lamp into timer

The timer has brass pegs screwed into the edge of the disc to set the "on" and "off" times. Simply unscrew the pegs (slowly and slightly, so the peg doesn't fall off) and move them around the disc to the desired off and on time. If the disc is not set to the correct time, you can simply turn it in the direction in which it spins (I believe that's clockwise -- just don't turn it in reverse). It's relatively simple, unless there's an electrical disconnection, in which case you should call an electrician. I hope that answered your question.

Seth ,I have had this a number of years now.. I recall that you can program a couple seperate on off times but you can't zone those times . I believe you will need two seperate units or a second timer of some sort that would switch the zones . You will have to research that concept.

This timer is a manual set timer. You set it for 1 hour or fifteen minutes or whatever, and it ticks down like an egg timer as stated in the description. You reset it every time you want to use it. Ours lasted for several years and was a great value for the price.

My instruction folder says, "touching the timer button will activate the timer for 60 minutes". I wonder why you didn't receive an information flyer. Try: www.marpac.com/info/support

Thanks for asking a great question. For those customers who either bought models without a timer or can't afford to buy the timer model, we recommended that you purchase an inexpensive heavy duty appliance timer (in the case of the 9 tray models you'll need heavy duty with ground plug - three prong receptacle). These can be bought on Amazon, at your local general merchandise store or hardware store for around $10 or so. What is great about this option is you plug it into the wall, set the time of day, then plug in your dehydrator and set the start and stop times. The timer will shut off power to the dehydrator at that precise time. It is a low cost option to help you in cases where you don't have a timer model, can't afford one, or want to save on the extra cost for the built in timer model. Thanks for asking, please see our offer below Harvest Essentials ---------------------------------------------------------- &#9660; &#9660; &#9660; &#9660; &#9660; &#9660; &#9660;

Read the instructions CAREFULLY. If you have the current time set properly, you can start at "To Program the Timer". I believe if you take the time to work through that carefully one step at a time. you'll be in business. This timer has a LOT of capabilities for settings, and it is easy to miss a critical step if you're only trying for one on/off cycle per day, at the same time every day. That was, however, all I wanted to do, and by wading through carefully everything is working fine for me.

Hey Charlie - They have a FAQ for the slicers here: http://chefschoice.com/faqslicers.html No manuals online though - what did you need to know about it?

You can modify it to do seconds too. See this post: http://ohmyclegg.blogspot.com/2013/07/chicago-electric-digital-timer-hack.html

Hi Bo, I have used one of these WH21 for the last 25 years. This version of timer is only for controlling on and off in a 24 hour period. It will not help you with the issue that you described. Thanks,Ed
