Can you set the SA220 back to the original settings? I can't seem to change the # of days &amp; thought this would solve my problem.

You can reset the timer by pushing the reset button at the bottom left hand corner of the keypad. Have the instructions handy, because when you push the button, you will have to reprogram the timer. Be careful...make sure you enter Eastern time, and when you enter the area code, it will automatically adjust if you live in a different time zone. You should now be able to start from scratch to program the timer however you like.

As far as I know, there is no way to change the time settings. They are set for standard time, and cannot be changed. However, you could go the the website and ask them directly. The website is testingtimers.com.

Yes I've left my watch on 24hr display 'cause I couldn't figure out how to change it to 12hr. It has been very hard for me to program

It seems like all the settings up til about 7. I've learned to adapt to it. After a while you discover it's not a really big deal.

I believe that there no absolute time in this controller. The 24 hours (or whatever interval you set) start at the time when you first set it and then happen every 24 hours at that same time.

As far as i know there is no way to change the setting. I've never had that problem. Wonder if something is wrong with yours?

Yes you can create a set time and save it and use it now and at later date. You can also clear the settings easily

Note - one of the comments was "reboot every week", and this is true, you can set it to reboot every day or every thursday etc, but that will NOT delete the recordings, it just reboots the system. To overwrite the recordings so it's a continuous loop (always removing the oldest ones to replace with the newest ones) you can set that in the config.

Yes you can set up the time and date.... but good luck. It is the most complicated and difficult to follow set of directions I have ever seen. I still don't have ours set up the way we want, but I have to be prepared to grow some new, stronger synapses for my neurons when I try again! Good luck.

Are you wanting this timer to turn off only once a week? I believe thsi can be done. I've not had it do this but just set it to turn off on a single day/time of the week and leave the other days/times blank.

You have to go into the AUTO SET sub-menu, so to speak. Don't rely on clicking MANUAL SET. Do that, certainly, but then click on AUTO SET to get its options. Turn it off there as well.It's been awhile since I did it now, but as I recall, I also deactivated Daylight Savings Time. The government has switched that around so much that I don't trust automatic updates anymore.

I have the same issue, mine resets to four hours prior within minutes of setting it.

Press (with tip of tee or other point) "RESET" on the back. Then I have to experiment with the buttons because I only change the time twice a year. I think the "other" answer steps work also.

I can only see the date for a very short time by pushing the top button. Couldn't find a way to make it stay on. Let me also say that in certain lighting, the display is unreadable.

I'm not sure what settings I have for auto and Daylight savings, but my unit has always lost about 30 seconds a week. I feel better seeing it's not hours off like others report. This unit is full of bugs and I sent Toshiba a list but they don't seem to care. Too bad a $5 Timex keeps better time...

Since the times are all set manually I would think you will have to reset by hand. We bought ours between time change so we will find out for sure early next month when we "fall back".

Send it back before your 30 days are up! The same thing happened to me. It did not work right out of the box, but I didn't get it sent back in time.
