Programming the IC100kp+1C depends on how you want the switch to operate. It has a time clock function and a photocell which run in parallel.

To program switching times for 16:00-20:00 for example you click MENU,PROGRAM, STANDARD,  LIGHT ON, select 16:00 then set the DURATION UNTIL 20:00. You can then copy the program to multiple days of the week.

You can then set the switching of the photocell. To do this you go into MENU, LIGHT, LUX VALUE, LUX ON, set the lux level, copy for multiple days of the week. Then set the LUX OFF, set the level, then copy the days of the week.

With this configuration the timer will switch the lights on between 16:00-20:00, outside of these times if the lux level drops below the set value the photocell will turn the lights on and off. Once the timers program is activated this would override any function the photocell has, so the lights would always be on between 16:00-20:00. If you didn’t want the lights on during the night between 20:00-06:00 you would program the NIGHT BREAK function between these hours.

Previous models of the IC100kp+1C the time function and photocell lux values had to be activated before the timers contact would switch over. With the current model the time function and photocell can work independently of each other.

If you don’t want a time function you would just set the lux levels and leave the LIGHT ON settings unprogrammed. This would then just switch the timer purely off the lux values set.
