I keep getting flashing "8"'s when I try to set the timer. What is the problem?

I am not familiar with that one. Try turning the unit off and then back on. The people at Orbit are very helpful and can help out. Thanks VG

Orbit has very good customer service, you might try contacting them. If you haven't already, you might try removing the batteries, reinserting them, and resetting everything. That's the best I can offer.

If you haven't done this, (1) replace the batteries and (2) reset the unit by the front reset hole located just under and to the left of the read out. If "8"s still appear, it's been my years of experience with this unit to replace the unit.

There are 4 buttons that should be preset to different time amounts. Or you can also set them. I think mine came with A (10sec for base cure) and the. B, C, D are 90, 120, 180. If thats not it. Check that you have bulbs plugged in firmly. They might be arc'ing? Hope that helps.

I set as many timers as I need and then I activate them one at a time or in seriatim or all at the same time. I am not certain this answers your question.

You would have to activate the timer first for the timer to be on. (The little clock face on the lower left corner.) When the timer is activated the red power light would flash. Sounds like something is wrong with your unit though.

Thank you for your question Lee. It sounds like your unit just needs to be reset, which can be done very easily. Simply reset the system by holding the UV button for at least 3-5 seconds until the reminder lights stop flashing. Your product is now set and ready to go! If you have any further questions, please contact Guardian Technologies Customer Service department at support@guardiantechnologies.com or at 866.603.5900 x213, and we will be happy to walk you through these steps.

Mine seems to go off completely every hour, and yesterday for a while it wouldn't go to the 5th setting.

HII bought 2 sets and have the same problem. There is a button on the back you can push to change the setting, but I think there are a million settings to go through. I seemed to push the correct number of times for one set and it is on without flashing so I know it works, but the other one I never go to work and I heva tried everything. Good luck.

It takes a couple of tries to get the clock display to flash. As soon as it flashes press the arrow buttons for the time. We had a power surge the other day and I had to reset mine.

You must make sure that you connect the red and black wires as stated in the instructions correctly. I have gotten them backwards before and the timer worked like yours is working. Try changing the connections

Yes you have to constantly change the setting to the one you want. I use the no flashing, just straight light and I have to adjust it every time I unplug it.

Do you need set the self-timer? If yes, you can find it in "fun/set" and choose the timer, off, 2s or 10s.

Hi Hillery, Here is how I set the time. Using a pen or something similar press and hold the set button. When numbers begin to flash press the button repeatedly until the hour flashes. Press 'Memo' repeatedly until the hour (and am/pm) is correct. Press 'Set' until the minutes flashes. Press 'Memo' repeatedly until the minutes is correct. Then press 'Set' repeatedly until numbers stop flashing.

mine was running 8 - check that it has a serial number though - mine didn't and wasn't under warranty.

I don't know why it keeps flashing. Mine flashes once when I turn it on, then that's it. Wish I could be more helpful.

It sounds like your item is defective. The timer should always be running and advancing. Hope this helps.
