Does this operate on a schedule? Can I set it to start at 6 AM?

No, this doesn't have a built in timer to turn it on automatically at a certain time. It only has an on/off switch. However, you could always plug it into an automatic timer if you want it to go on at a certain time.

It does not include a timer feature. You could probably plug it into a timer outlet like those sold to turn lights off and on and accomplish what you want to do.

You can connect to a timer I believe. In the winter months I use it every day but I get up and have it with my coffee and breakfast while I watch the morning news. You really should have your eyes open when using it for the full benefit. It's a really nice product despite it's not being an alarm clock. I think if you spend a lot more you might be able to buy one that operates on a schedule. But for the money I feel this light was an investment that has paid for itself in energy and mood dividends for me.

You can't specify 8 hrs etc, but you can set it to do intervals by using schedule. For instance I water every other day at 6AM. By using the schedule you can program it to wTer every day at say ten and six, or monday thursday at ten and tuesday froday at six (36 in between). You can schedule more than obe time on one line, you just have to follow the rules spelled out in book that comes with

You should be able to program three seperate times. If you choose 6am it will only come on at 6 am.

I asked the same question when I called support. Set your time on and off. Manually turn them on. The on off time will then take over. The time you set will do that function. It will not evaluate the on off function continually throughout time. If set to turn on at 6 will turn on at 6. If you manually turn off then I won't turn on again until 6. Again set it and then be patient.

No. You can program it to automatically come on at a different specific time for each day of the week or at the same time for all 7 days of he week. Same for shut off time. It also has a "random" feature that will vary the on-off times +/- 0-15 minutes if it is programmed to turn on/off at the same time for all 7 days of the week.

No. It's that timer to set device on and off at specific time. Like turn on at 08:00 AM and off at 10:00 PM. Ok?

Sure can! I have mine turn on at "dusk" off at 11pm then on at 5am and off at "dawn". I've even adjusted my dusk and daw -/+ 15 min to give a buffer. When you program your area it'll ask you confirm the sunrise and sunset, you can easily adjust them. These really are set and forget.

No it doesn't so I added a light timer to it so it would run during the schedule I set. It works fine doing it that way.

It has a programable on and off menue. Ours comes on at 6L00 a.m. every morning. Also, it has a program that will allow you to set it to go off automatically after two hours. East on and off switch in the back too.

You can have is start at sunset and set it for a multiple of hours such as 4 or 5 or? from sunset

I think you set the 24 hr time at the time you want it started. So if you want it started at 8am you set the 24 hr timing at 8 am.

Yes I able to set the timer to go on at 7PM and turn off at 11PM for 7 days a week without much difficulty. Did have to follow the direction and do it several times but is working well. I like it!!!!!

You cannot set a start time. It automatically starts the cycle from the time that you set the duration and cycle on the circular dial. i.e. if you turn the dial to the 5 minute "every other day" setting at 2:00 pm, then the timer will turn on at 2:00 p.m. every other day for 5 minutes. When setting the duration and cycle, be sure to turn the dial to Off first, and then set the cycle.

Just Set 3 times that you want to deactivate to 24 ... so for example: if you want to set feeding times at 7am & 6pm, it would be like 1:7; 2:18; 3:24; 4:24; 5:24.

Yes, you can schedule by day and hour. You can also set the 770 to skip certain days.

You have to see the schedule configuration. There are the option to make this. Please see it.
