It says "day/night/both". I don't see any time input, so how do you set the clock so it knows what time it is?

It has a built in photo cell to sense day/night transitions. In the both position it ignores room light and runs strictly on time. For instance, with tomatoes you don't to water during the day to avoid sun burn spots on leaves due to the droplets of light concentrating the sun like little lenses. This also can be used to slave your hydroponic watering system system to your light operation, ie, water when the lights come on for x minutes, twice a day.

We run our system 24/7 so we have it on both. You just set the interval you want and the duration of each event.

It has a simple 3 way switch attached to a photocell. Put the switch in the day possition and it runs when it senses light etc.

It's a timer, in that it keeps track of on/off cycles not actual "time of day". It knows when to turn on & off not what time it is.

It has a light sensor built-in. When its its day when it's dark it's night.

Cant answer positively but seems to me that if it doesn't perhaps you could just set it to whatever time zone matches your current time?

First you go to the system menu then you go into settings , when u select settings , you should see an icon for date and time called system settings , select it and you should be able to set the date and time !

no. it shows AM and PM but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to set the time. luckily I don't use it as a clock.

Open the lid, turn the outer dial so the arrow on the inner part points to the time. You can't get it exactly but you can set it to the approximate correct time.

Good question! I have no idea. I didn't buy it as a clock, I bought if as a timer so I haven't even tried to set the clock.

Hello daylight savings! ;) if you cold down the clock button on the left it will start to flash. Then enter the time. Not sure about a manual.... Hope this helps!

Press the "PGM"(program) button, at the bottom of display will be a list of days, Sun-Sat. Press " DAY" button to select which day(s) you want to program. When the desired days are displayed at the bottom of screen, press "HOUR" or "MIN" to set the "ON" time. Press PGM again to set the "OFF" time.Similar steps to set the clock, minus pressing the PGM button.I exit any time or programming setting by pressing the "on/off" button, which happens to be the little door you flip up to access the programming buttons.

Mine set itself when I first plugged it in. It does come with instructions to change the time settings. They are somewhat complicated because you have to set 8 different settings. I had to go through that to change from Daylight savings to Standard time. If you don't have the manual try to get it from the company website. It is too hard to figure out without the manual.

You have to hold the bottom left button that reads "MODE/SET" hold it long enough where the time that's showing blinks. For each area you need to change: hour, minute & second you'll need to click each time and to change the numbers you use the right sided keys on the watch to change. Hope this helps. I accidentally threw my instructions out, but I did a test trial before answering this question.

When you go into the manual set up mode the first thing you see is either ST or DT in the day portion of the display. Use the up arrow or the down arrow to set it for DST or not. This does not appear to be in the instructions, but mine works this way.

Its an automatic time setting clock. It should pick up on the location radio signal for the time. If not it has a manual function.

hold down the time button for about 5 seconds and time will start to flash. Use +/- buttons to adjust hour. then I think you tap the time button a few more times to pass through minutes and feeder times. Once it gets back to hours/minutes display I think you're all set.

Mine came displaying 12 hour time, and when I first pressed the button to set it, it switched to 24 hour time. But then about a year later, when I reset it for DST, it switched back to 12 hour time, and nothing I did would switch it back. Sorry I can't help. Somebody is making a fortune off of these clocks, because they have about $5-10 worth of parts in them.

Hi. You can set it to a mode that will announce time every hour if you like. It does not tell weather.

Sorry, I haven't needed to change the time on it. It's been on the correct time since first power up. But I believe the clock is in the settings menu.

There's a small button on the right that lets you choose between a bright back light, a dim back light or no back light. Even the dim is too bright for me. I turn it off but then have no way to see the time.
