Does it hold the programming if the power is turned off, or do you have to re-program it each time? Is there a maximum amount you can program?

I believe it holds the programmed volume when power is off since when power is off there seems to be no power used. I never programmed the shot size since the programmed volume is perfect.

I'm sorry I can't remember as I had to put this machine in the trash I will never own another cuisinart product ever again

It holds programming if the machine is turned off. It loses it if the power goes out or it is unplugged. I'm not sure if there's a maximum, but you don't want to go much beyond 2.5oz/55g or you'll lose a lot more heat than you want.

Yes, that's correct. I think the amount of time that it stays off is programmable. This is quite a nice switch although I haven't figured out how to "train" it to only come on when it's dark. I haven't really taken the time to work with it. The support folks are very helpful and friendly.

It does NOT lose programming if all you're doing is swapping batteries. As long as you don't take two or three days to change it out, you should be ok.

Hi Steve. No, there is no programming available on this unit. I was going to suggest an appliance timer but I think that after the power to the unit was disconnected it would not come on by default when the timer restored power. Hope this helps

Yes, there's an override button that makes it work like a normal switch. It will also keep doing whatever you programmed.

Hi, Steven. I Do have to reprogram it when I turn it off and then back on. I use batteries because it didn't come with an adapter.

It keeps the last used setting. If you power off with this setting then it will turn on with the same last setting. Hope this helps you. Good luck.

No, but in the event of a power outage, it stores the programming for later. (No need to re-program.)

We've had a couple power outages since installing the unit, and it retained the last state in each instance. So, no programming needed.

It holds the memory when connected to a USB port. With batteries, it seems ok while it's on but when I turned it off, it lost what I had programmed.

No, you can still turn it on manually. The programming will resume. We really liked these!

It just plugs into a standard outlet. You cannot program it for anything other than the times shown. It is a simple button push to move from onesetting to the next. It is not a repeating timer either. It completely shuts off when it times out.

I have never had to reprogram it since I bought it. During the power outages or glitches it stays in whatever state it was in. It is much more stable than the X-10 devices I had which were prone to burn out or flickering during a power transient.

It will stay on whichever band you had it set on. So if the power goes out and you had it on B, when the power came back on it would go back to B. I'm using it to switch back and forth between antenna and cable. My TV's tuner has to be switched as well whenever I switch, as those two types of signals are decoded differently. I believe my TV returns back to the channel (and signal type) it was last on whenever the power goes out.

Yes it does, i have had a few power outages and have done service on AC and shut off power and still have not needed to reprogram it it just goes back to the settings it was on befor the outage. Hope this helps!

You can program it to shut off with the remote. I program mine for one hour since I use it in my bedroom when going to bed. It works great!
