and a timeout set — Push a button to send

the primary program string. The button’s LED lights.
When you push the button a second time or when the
timeout expires

, the control panel module sends the

secondary program string. The button’s LED goes out

If you push the button a third time, the timeout interval
starts over; that is, if the timeout is set to 30 minutes,
the control panel module will send the secondary string
30 minutes later.

The CTL208’s clock is always running and the
programmed timeout occurs on the full minute. Thus,
the timeout can occur up to 59 seconds earlier than the
number of minutes programmed. Over the length of the
average timeout setting, this “early” timeout is
considered of no consequence.

Factory Reset

With power removed, set rear panel DIP switch 5 to on (up).
Reapply power. Set switch 5 back to off (down). The DIP switch
factory reset performs the following functions:

Resets the control panel module’s serial port to 9600
baud, no parity, Xoff, and half duplex mode

Resets the module’s address to 97;

Enables the front panel

Erases all button codes

Resets all buttons to single mode

Resets all button groups and timeouts to 0.

Ensure that you reset switch 5 to off (down). If you
leave the switch on (up), the control panel module will
reset every time you power it on.
