When I ordered, I just received the normal unit with a digital display. The only adjustment I adjusted on the power unit was for a large or small pool size. This function determines the length of time the unit moves forward before reversing the direction of the water thrust. The unit automatically reverses directions after pushing against the wall for a while as the timer finishes. My unit is in storage now until summer so I cannot look at it in detail for other functions. After each use I clean and dry the bag and change the setting on the axle so it twists the power cable in a different direction with the next run. Hope this helps.

I suppose that's a good question and not one I thought to ask....my pool rover has a switch that allows for the shape/size of the pool (my pool is 18x36 oval), and that's it..... no forward/reverse timer......all I can say is on my above ground pool it absolutely does the job and runs for at least 2:30......you may want to check out the other models and see what's best for you...........

Hi, this is Steve at Aqua Products. The Hybrid unit comes with a power supply that allows you to choose from a small pool (~ 2 hr.) or Larger pool setting (~ 3 hrs.).

If you are still interested. I recently purchased(1 month ago) a power supply tester from Amazon. Priced around $10.00 usd. It has connections for most if not all PSU's. as well as connections for HDD and floppy(3.5) Sorry but there is no name on the device for me to pass along. It might be worth while to do a search on Amazon for a PC power supply tester. It is about 3.0" long and 2.5' wide. It also has LED lights showing voltage amounts. Good Luck.

Hello Wendy. I hope my answer helps. I bought this type and never was able to get this function. I waited to long to get back with the seller so I lost out. I would not buy this type of unit.

I ordered this as a gift for my son. It came with the power supply as advertised. If you purchased it from Amazon you are covered. Contact Amazon's customer service and request a power supply or replacement of the entire unit and I know they will take care of it. This is the main reason I always order from Amazon. I hope this helps. Dave J.

That's a good question...another reason it should come with an manual..in any case it does have backup battery power that won't last long depending on what u have plugged in but the backup battery is included and alrdy installed in the unit which is really helpful as so with the digital display/timer.

No, the countdown is for the relay only. the n/o, n/c, and common are only relay contacts. unless you split your power supply, you'll have provide a second power supply. I believe the intent of this board was provide a countdown to a separately powered appliance or circuit when the momentary input start switch is triggered. I have used about 6 of these boards so far, and they seem to be relatively good quality.

Me too. Still haven't got it set up correctly. Power to the digital array is working but the switch and timer do not. Sorry

Sally, Yes. My reason is this: If you are replacing a old timer with new, the component parts down stream --the electronically-operated valves -- don't care what kind of timer you are using. For all "they" care, it could be a timer from another manufacturer. You are good to go! The only semi-difficult part of installation is getting the wiring correct when you make the transfer. I took a picture to use as a guide. Also, change the internal 9 volt back-up battery once a year. That will keep your programmed settings in memory if there's a power failure. Cheers, Jerry

This item is for turning two items off and on at the exact same time. If you want that you will have to get a much more expensive timer box or digital timer box. Another option is to just run multiple timers.

I have 2 of the 4 button JamMan Stereo Loopers. I powered the newer unit in using the old power supply that was still in my rack. Long story short, the unit fried (BZZZZT!) during a gig. When I contacted tech support, they informed me that the power supply (PS0913DC) that had come with the newer unit was different than the PS0913B. Fortunately they fixed it for free, and sent it back with the correct power supply.

It's been quite awhile since I installed my timer and I don't remember now what number it was----but I know that it did take a back up battery. Are you sure your's does not? I've never seen one that didn't? But I suppose that it's possible that the newer models might use a system that won't dump your settings when the power goes off. I haven't researched your model number so I can't say one way or the other for certain.

I run 2 Servers in my home office (I am an IT Consultant), plus the rest of my home on this unit. About 5 months ago we lost power for 48 hours and we ran the generator using Natural Gas. I had a couple of hiccups with some of my UPS's due to voltage fluctuation. I think it has to do with the sensitivity of the units. My older UPS units did not have an issue. I have found out from others in my field that this is common with newer units. I have APC older units and they did beep every once in awhile, but the equipment stayed on all 48 hours. The newer units did not and once the battery was used up, the equipment turned off. I don't want to give out model #'s because just because mine worked, I can't guarantee it will work for you. Once it gets warmer around here I am going to try and put surge suppressors in front of the newer units to see if that helps. If not I would try to put cheap UPS's in front of the High Capacity units. Hope that helps. BTW, I have my generator connected using a manual transfer switch and when I lost power, I was able to be on generator power in under 3 minutes.... Power went out... I went outside, removed the cover, turned on the Natural Gas, turned the key... That was it. I use a battery tender always connected to the unit so the battery is always fully charged. Total install including the generator was under $2600.

Well your kind of lucky because I just realized both of mine are wired like that. I followed the wiring instructions and I seem to have the same problem. Something is backwards and coincidentally I was going to look into it today. I really thought I had it right the first time around. Oh well. If you find the answer let me know , I'll do the same.

I use an analog timer so the clock setting changes for the time the power is off but as soon as the power comes back on the feedings resume. If you used a digital timer with battery back up the clock would continue to function and the times wouldn't change. You can use any kind of timer with the feeder.

Everyone is making it more confusing than it needs to be. Basically the VCC & Gnd power the board and IN & Gnd activate the timer, but neither have anything to do with the relay output. Think of it as putting power to your device (typically the + if DC or the HOT wire if AC) into the 'Com' which goes to the relay and then comes out the CB (NC) or CK (NO). If the timer is on then the power coming in through Com will come out the CK (NO) and if timer is off then it will come out the CB (NC) terminal. See my review for more specifics.

both of the ones I have are 2 prong plugs (but I am using them connected to 3prong timers - I would suggest getting 3 prong timers as you may find yourself using them for other things also...)

Hi, thanks for contacting us. We carry a 30 day warranty on this item. We do not know what power supply you will need to operate this power supply. I am sorry and if there is anything else I can do for you or if you have any other questions please let me know.Sincerely,Chris Nickels Red Planet Trading
