Description

The UPB Controller, Scheduler-Timer is designed for ease of use and maximum functionality. Once set for time, date, and location (zip code or latitude/longitude), a single intuitive display handles all event setup. Once configured, the timer automatically adjusts for power outages, seasons, and daylight savings — no ongoing manual adjustment needed.

The Scheduler-Timer automatically syncs to the nationally synchronized power grid; it knows when daylight savings and leap years occur, and calculates local sunrise/sunset. If power is lost, programmed events are retained in non-volatile memory — time is maintained for approximately one week without power. The user menus are designed for easy navigation with a minimum number of button presses.
